    is ECC memory necessary for quantitative trading?

    Thank you, ZBZB. Surely the Windows OS is adequate. The irony of those VPS solutions is their Passmark score. According to a decent rule of the thumb, nowadays a trading rig should provide a 10000 score for a no-compromise up-to-date PC (please note a Ryzen 3950X is substantially above that and...

    is ECC memory necessary for quantitative trading?

    From their FAQ: "What will be the differences with my own desktop ? Nothing. You will have a Windows 2008 R2 operating system installed, with its official license. Windows 2008 R2 is the professional version of Windows 7. The look will feel will be a bit different, but that’s all." Year 2020...

    Maintaining Self Discipline

    Again, you are continuing to count losing vs winning trades; this is worthless while the issue is your bad trades, i.e. the ones when you are not following the rules. So journaling your trading process is a good step.

    Maintaining Self Discipline

    My 2 cents for improving your trading day: 1) don't be obsessed with winners %. This is detrimental to #2; 2) in order to get those '40 /50 ticks potential', you have to adopt the philosophy of "look after the downside and the upside will look after itself" (cit. by Tony Sycamore).. in other...

    The End of an Era: X_TRADER®’s Final Sunset
