    So I spent 5.5 k on new system, only to have my old system back (beyond mad)

    I respectfully disagree. This thread is hilarious: watching Mikasa getting repeatedly schooled and then reading his attempts at insulting people. "is that clear enough bubu?" - Hilarious.

    Who's in Brazil these days? Rio, Sao Paulo?

    Have no idea about your question but just in case you forgot: It's carnival in Rio from 13th to 17th of February. Accomodation costs are normally through the roof before and during that time.

    how to code my own system from scratch ?

    The IB TWS API is already at the level you are looking for. It's just a matter of using it. Did you want code that shows you how to use the API? The sample application that comes with the API covers implementation for most of the above. Anymore high-level than that and you are already...

    Little Iceland kicks UK in the face

    Comparing these two countries doesn't really make much sense: US: 300+ million people. Iceland: 300+ thousand people.

    Web Site Valuation

    The owner of this website seems to be content to make no changes other than to re-organize categories every now and then. This is what the website looked like some 7 years ago (a lifetime in the context of the Internet): http://web.archive.org/web/20021201050907/http://www.elitetrader.com/...

    Serious question about automated quant trading for the person of average intelligence

    Perhaps. Once the OP has learnt enough math to be able to decipher the notation and language used on the Wilmott forums, he/she may realize it's not what they were looking for. Then again, it may be exactly what they were looking for. Perhaps the OP wants to automate some stat arb? The...

    Serious question about automated quant trading for the person of average intelligence

    Wonder if you read the OP's request before commenting? He was referring to getting into the quant stuff that is discussed on the Wilmott forums. I gave him an apropriate answer. I make no assertion about the merits of what he wants to achieve or the relevancy to his trading. That's for...

    If you don't read Fooled by Randomness and The Black Swan, you'll be a naive trader?

    If that's true, sucks for me. I too have first editions of both but only have "Swan" signed :eek:

    detecting program trading?

    Try Googling: $TICK or $TICKI etc. $TICK and other related indicators probably aren't exactly what you want but they could give you an idea of how to build an indicator that is more tailored to your needs. This 6 year old thread from NeoTicker might also give you some ideas...

    a_person's debating style

    That website claims to list 8,860 Jews that fit their criteria. The author(s) also claim that that "Unfortunately, they are but the "tip of the iceberg"" and that the total number who may fit in this "category" is perhaps 5% of the total Jewish population. That would make about 750,000...

    Need Java recommendation

    I not an expert in Java either. Both the thinkorswim platform and IB's TWS are based on Swing and both display "real-time" option chains. Having said that, Swing's JTable wasn't exactly performant last time I looked at it (a long time ago) SWT is perhaps a better option IMO. Though it...

    Afghan soldier shoots dead 2 American troops

    That must be the understatement of the year. I have no dog in this fight but your continuing obsessive compulsive posting on the subject is one of the most entertaining things going on in politics and religion. To be sure, it's entertaining because I'm laughing AT you. Honestly, you...

    Atheism: Why People Don't Believe In God

    riskfreetrading, in all seriousness, I have definitive and conclusive proof that God does not exist. However, I'm not going to reveal this proof to you as you will not be willing to look at the evidence.

    Idea: Bookmarks / List of Fav Posts

    Exactly but the version being run here is probably quite a bit old and/or modified precluding the use of said add on...I'm guessing. The latest versions of vbulletin have just about every feature imaginable including features that have been requested a few times here in feedback.
