    eSignal Data Corrupted for so Many Markets for such a Long Time

    Only problem is that many 3rd party programs can only use the 10 version and not the 11 version so if you have a data only subscription using 10 version how do you work around these data issues?

    Cost to go public on OTCC or Pink sheets?

    I also have a vague memory of USD300k min more likely 500k as per others above for what is effectively an IPO. That is why nobody ever buys back the float with these things - easier to start a new company or do a rollback to dilute existing shareholders into the next galaxy.

    Pictures of your trading stations

    Those 14 monitors are going to feel like overkill once you graduate to trading forex from the beach on your ipad same as the rest of us on ET. On a serious note who makes the pole stands high enough for 3 monitors? I recognise the bases as the same as my Tyke Supply stands but have never...

    NVS 295 vs 300

    My take on fan cards is that the fan is a difficult to replace component that can fail rendering a USD300+ card useless. I stick with non fan. Also if you buy 2nd hand you could well be buying a almost never used card if it is a standard workstation card like NVS 295 as many upgrade spec from...
