What happens between the time an exploit is discovered and when Microsoft announces patch, and the user installs it. The point is that BID, as an IDS, will prevent malicious activity that a firewall will let through. For example, you run a web server, your firewall allows all traffic on HTTP...

btw, many people have used both BlackIce and a firewall product to gain the benefits of IDS as well as firewall. Since BlackIce's 2.5 product, though, their firewall capabilities is just as good as ZA, Tiny, Symmantec's or any other personal firewall. An example of another difference...

Longshot, You are not comparing the same thing. If you are going to shout (i.e. caps) might as well get your facts straight. BID is an IDS (with firewall and outbound connection management). ZoneAlarm is firewall only. Scenario : - User has IIS installed - IIS suffers from the...

LOL, no, I'm not. But I've lost a pot or two by not raising a woman who was easy on the eyes (where she would've folded if I raised). Now.... I have often imagined you much fun I could have in a poker room if I was one! The psychological failures of men playing poker vs. above average...

The name of the system is called "Scalper": http://www.geocities.com/wealth_lab/Scalper.html

I've personally installed BlackIce from version 2.5 to present on over 150 different desktops, and upgrades last year using version 2.9 plus another 30 new installs, and just recently upgrades on all desktops plus 20 new installs using version 3.5 (all different configurations from 98, ME, NT...

Scalping methods, or other short-term methods, always require strict backtesting discipline because the effects of slippage are such a large % of the average profit. I've seen many a would be great emini scalp system do poorly in actual trading because the designer didn't take into account the...

Who needs a Holy Grail? Just find a system with Profit Factor > 2.0 and Sharpe ratio > 4.0 and you'll have no problems following the signals. Define precise measures to determine when the underlying dynamics of the market are no longer valid within the parameters of the system and adjust or...

Online poker is a good place to start but I would recommend a real poker club. Not only is it more fun, but it tests your psychology more (although if you are a systems trader, online poker is quite similar). There are also many, many people who have speculated on degree of bad beats, the...

GRC has always been very harsh on BlackIce, but from day one GRC was analyzing BlackIce out-of-context. BlackIce should be used as an IDS (Intrusion Detection System) in conjunction with other firewalls. Since it's initial release, BlackIce's firewall capabilities have improved, however, but I...

I highly recommend all traders to learn serious poker. Not your Thursday night poker game with friends but go to a real card club (there are legal and prevalent in almost every state now). Once you learn the game, establish a bankroll and treat it like a full-time job! Even if you only play...

Buy High, Sell Higher?

Nitro is looking for an alternative solution. IndexLab is neat. A few pairs traders are using it.

Yeah, http://www.mechtrading.com/. QCollector downloads data from quote.com or eSignal and stores them in CSV files. It can also update any Excel sheet in real-time. For example, I have a NN application that currently is only coded in Excel and haven't had time to convert it to a...

It's kind of a pain, but you could always use Excel and something like QCollector to auto update the Excel at whatever time interval you require.

This thread was doomed from the beginning. Someone put it out of its misery. It also looks like Jordan is asking a rhetorical question. Of course, that depends on what the definition of is is.

Not true, and there is also a lag associated with observing only price. This is a fundamental flaw of TA. E.g. inside information, order flow, nonlinear dynamics of intermarket relationships, etc. are not obtainable by observing only price & volume of a single market. Have you read any...

The original question is too general such that any response that tries to add structure will be dismissed by Jordan as too rigid, so I may as well not even bother, except to say this... Many traders have claimed success trading flags & pennants as one of the most successful TA patterns...

Your view of the causal effects of investor psychology on price is too simplistic. If what you suggest is so easy to isolate, there wouldn't be a market. You are trying to simplify the polygon "fear & greed" to fit into a round TA hole, but it is far from simple.... and btw it is only a small...

To say that patterns based on fear & greed should continue to work no mater what fundamental changes occur in the market(s) is a naive approach, IMHO, because fear and greed are very general and complex behaviors. Also, fear & greed are only one component of market behavior. There are many...
