I have used both, XP Pro and Win2k. Both were extremely stable. When I first upgraded from Win98 to 2000 I thought I had died and gone to heaven. So when I got a new comp with XP on it I thought I would "downgrade" to 2000. But I have really liked XP Pro. It is much easier to deal with...

Vendors use this correlation all the time to make a nice living.

Any time you try to measure income from trading you will have a problem because of survivorship bias. At any given time there will be some average of what current traders are making, but that will be skewed to the upside because the winners hang around and the losers drop out. So whatever mean...

These kinds of posts were done by JR/Sim too. A lot of name calling and other junk. He made it clear in the Hershey thread that if he was censored he would leave. So, basically, you will run off some good posters who choose not to follow the rules, but for the sake of keeping a civil board...

Ok, I guess no one cares. When some of you graduate from kindergarden, then please feel free to participate some more. I will not put up with this in this forum. For those who feel like threads are not dealt with in an approproate manner, please remember to use the "Kill" button on the...

Ok, that is ENOUGH! Holy crap, you guys are a bunch of third graders. You wonder why every single post is not caught if it breaks the rules...it would be a full time job to play babysitter to you people. Grow up! What's done it done. JR left for his own reasons. To go home because you get...

I don't disagree with you. I only know two of the moderators personally. I do not know how any of the others choose to do their job. That is between them and Baron. I have never favored one member over another. I am just giving you the general position that moderators are in. We try to do...

Look, tntneo is just doing his job. A job that he is not paid to do. He is just following the rules of the site, which he, I and the other moderators volunteered for because we like what this site has to offer and want to keep it a viable place for exchanging ideas. I am glad that JR posted...

I agree with those saying to avoid the Matrox drivers. I have never gotten them to work properly. Just uninstall them and then reboot. XP will do the rest. I have been running on the XP default drivers for almost a year with no problems.

Definitely British...:D ...I'm going with option 2. P.S. Thanks for taking the time to detail how you trade.

Thanks for the reply Jay. You are correct that it is rare for the "higher ups" to mingle with the individual customers and I appreciate that. I'm glad to hear about the historical data. Will this include all data products (such as the Forex symbols) or only domestic products?

I have been using Esignal for awhile now. I have also used Qcharts, AT Financial, Telemet, and others. As far as performance goes, I have had no more problems with Esignal than I have with the others. I have two major complaints about Esignal that I see mentioned occasionally, but not as...

I subscribe to the Esignal forex feed, but I am looking for more than 60 days of intraday data. Does anyone know a good source for this? Chaos helped me find daily data (thanks!) but I really need to find 30 min bars for testing purposes. I have been pleased with the Esignal data feed for...

No I am not...oh well, nevermind...its like arguing with my four year old.

Admitidly I am not a Nobel Laureate. You got me on that one. [/b] You just said yourself that you would tell your family and friends if you had inside info. You don't think Waksal did the same? [/b] And who did that daytrader sell too? Someone lost money and it wasn't Martha. I don't...

I said the same thing, only in this case it is both illegal and wrong. [/b] I think you are very naive if you really believe this. As far as I know there is no law saying she can't inform the public as long as it is distributed equally. She is in trouble for profiting off that info at the...

Harboring Jews may have been illegal under Hitler but it was not immoral. Stealing is both illegal and immoral. I was not saying that the two categories were the same, only that insider trading falls under both. Comparing common sense ethics to the Nazis does not make sense. ?? I don't...

While I am a big fan of Milton Friedman's, I think that is ridiculous. Of course she did something wrong. Its not only illegal to profit off of inside information but immoral as well. What about the person that unknowingly took the loss for her? How is that not wrong? Its no different than...

I saw the t.v. movie the other night and was surprised at how negative it was. I never realized she had been a broker before or had been involved in a previous stock scam. I know they cover insider trading when you get licensed, so as far as I'm concerned she should have known better. It...

Yes.
