When I minimize a chart, it snaps to the lower left of the screen. When I try to drag it where I want it, like I can in 10.6, it snaps back.

OK. Back to ugly. I ran a backtest in 11 and didn't see anywhere that it allows me to change the default lot size from the 100 it appears to be set at. Please, don't say "Read the manual!" It's supposed to be intuitive!

When I was a kid a high school buddy of mine who had a convertible used to cruise with his friends with the top down. If they saw a pretty girl walking, they'd pull up beside her and smile. The driver would say to a passenger, "Don't be a jerk! Say something nice to the girl!" The stock reply...

Thank you kindly for your advice. I have my complete current 10.6 screen replicated in 11 and look forward eagerly to discovering every way it doesn't work the way I need it to. At this point the only thing keeping me from jumping ship is the mind-agonizing prospect of converting to NinjaTrader...

Thanks again. I plan to run tests on backtest speed, say 600 days of one-minute data. I can't say about the Ninja, but if I understand the current version correctly I can set a BT range, say of stop loss values, and have it run through them all. And I can set a range of stop loss and a range of...

Checking with different services, about .96 MBps upload, .77 MBps download. Fast enough to watch porn while you trade.

My modem is only 3G. Stand by and I'll test it. I only use it as a backup for my cable modem.

Ah, yes, very cleaver, just like in 10.6. I am beginning to get the distinct impression that you are smarter than I am. A common experience for me. Almost everybody is. But don't get cocky. It may just be because you are younger. OK, I am digging deep for kvetches here. This one is a gnit...

Look here and all will be re-veal-ed: http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/mobilebroadband/ But I advise you to pay no attention to Redneck and me. We are both crazy gun-toting Texans.

Yes, thanks. I do hide a title bar on my 10.6, good suggestion. But what is a detached window? Is that like a detached retina?

Sorry I wasn't clear. They are mostly "helpers" conveying no more information than "you should be long" or "you should be short" or "Jack jumped over the candlestick" or "This system just triggered long while you're in a short." I need to be able to assess them simultaneously at a glance...

NinjaTrader's lease price of $50 plus their data price of $50 beats ES handily.

The attached file is a rough comparison of the way my screen looks in 10.6 (top) vs. in 11 (bottom). The two look different in some respects because the 10.6 represents intraday data and the 11 was loaded on the weekend. It may not look like much difference to you, but to me 11 is wasteful of...

Here's another one. Save a page, close the program, reopen it, and the price compressions don't restore the way they were saved.

Thank for correcting me. Told you it wasn't intuitive to a drunk.

In 11, I cannot squeeze a chart horizontally as small as I can in 10.6. Important for squeezing in small informative charts, like on other instruments than what you trade.

This simple code I use in 10.6: //priceingold last change 11/24/10 var starttime=0;var stoptime=2400; var gold; function preMain() { setDefaultBarFgColor(Color.black);setComputeOnClose(true);setPlotType(PLOTTYPE_SQUAREWAVE); } function main() { gold=close()/close("gc #f"); return...

Well, I decided to give it another try. I am dead drunk. If it's intuitive, even a drunk should be able to make it work, right? So I decided to transfer my entire trading screen over from 10.6 to 11. I didn't get very far. I was entering studies onto a chart somewhat randomly from memory...

Google Verizon broadband wireless. I use it. Switched to it from ATT wireless. Easy to use. Reliable. Improves your win probability.
