You know what they say - when you work a lot and want to get a cat, better get two so they can play with each other when you are not at home. Don't know why this comes to my mind right now :)

I don't know the guy but just in general it's remarkable and quite something to look up to when people take a couple of hits (illness, accidents, financial disasters etc.) in life and still manage to get up for the next round. I think you can learn a lot from other people's mistakes. My 2...

You only dis it because you don't want to practice, practice and practice to develop the skill! :D

That's the guy that came to my mind as well. I love the banner on this site - "We offer the most expensive Trading Courses Worldwide":D

I ended up in power trading. Every time we visit them my girlfriend's parents want me to take a look at their fuse box. :D

True? Sorry to hear that - I actually had the idea of getting a version next year.

Having no emotions is not the same as being disciplined and rational. Daniel Goleman's book on EQ is an interesting starting point to the topic. As far as I remember he describes people with no emotions (because of brain damage) and the consequences to their lives... quite scary.

No, I mean a link to an external article.

Are you sure? I read that a couple of months ago here on ET and couldn't confirm it back then. Do you have a link?

wait a second... isn't this the moment where another guy, registered today, enters the picture and asks you about your strategy?

Thanks Bernd. I am trying it right now - I especially like the open source concept for this kind of software. Kind regards TM

great book, but make sure you know some Java before you start this one. You can get the 3rd Edition online, the 4th in Print. It's worth the money, I highly recommend it. TM

Ask yourself what kind of things you would like to achieve. Next look at solutions that are already on the market. If there is something valueable that no software out of the box can do for you than you have a reason to do it yourself. It takes quite some time to get proficient in...

Yes - the document is 566 pages long with good information and you support the project with the money (39 $ as far as I remember). It's worth it. TM

You can use a switch box to use several computers with one monitor, keyboard, mouse. For example if you do number crunching with one computer, there is no need to look at the screen all the time. Trustme

Thanks for the advice. I consider getting this one: http://www.pny.com/products/quadro/nvs/440x16NvsPciEx.asp I just hesitate and want to make sure I don't have any hardware issues after I get it. That's my motherboard...

So if I understand this right, I could get two PCIe x1 cards (for example this one: http://www.matrox.com/mga/media_center/press_rel/2005/g550_lp_pcie.cfm) and plug them into one PC - first card into the 16x slot and the second into a remaining pci-e one? An important factor for me is always...

In the old days with an agp slot on the motherboard you could have had an agp card and a pci card. How is it now with the new pci-e cards? Can you still add an old plain pci-card to an existing pci-e card? Or do you have to have a special motherboard with at least two pci-e graphic slots? I...

Interesting - I see you use a trackball. Is this a good alternative to a mouse? I am comtemplating getting one for one of my workstations. TM

Trying to get this thread back on topic.... I am surprised that so many people turn their attention to mechanical trading up to the point where they want to invest hundreds or more hours in learning programming languages. I am an humble student and I will probably be one for the next 20 years...
