One of the big problems for the dollar is the deficit. As it grows larger, fewer countries will be willing to buy US treasuries for fear of not getting paid back. If China was not buying them now, we would have much larger interest rates. If they stop buying them, and oil starts to be traded...

Great post. The only reason "Cheney" invaded Iraq, is so his buddies at Halliburton could clean up. There was NO reason to invade Iraq. As a matter of fact, saddam kept Iraq in order. Anyone who has studied history knows that part of the world is a mess. They will now be fighting each other...

I've noticed the same problem on the e-mini data...when the market gets really busy, the quotes will "freeze" for a second or two, and then the chart gets a burst of the data to catch up. I'm running x-trader, so I see the DOM go crazy, and then the chart plays catch up, so I know it's DTN and...

It is better to stick with the same brand.

There is a reason the commercials like JG Wentworth only offer 22%. If you put 400K into tax free municipal bonds, you can get roughly 5% or 20K per year risk free. If you make a reasonable income, you are going to have to pay 40% of that 50K a year in taxes. Why would anyone pay 400K...

Judging from the way it is trading, I think it goes higher tomorrow by at least a couple bucks.

I'd tell em' to take 10K and go to a prop firm. That seems the best route for someone who is serious. But you did the right thing telling them to run away...the kid actually uttered the word "Cramerica"?? He's going to get killed. :eek: :D

The answer is: Marketing. An example of this is TigerDirect. Do some research, they have something like 20 different storefronts(different names, websites) but the format is the same. However, sometimes the prices are different.

Wow, I can't believe any of that. The ATI x300 has GOT to be compatible with another x300. Matrox is very good, you should have no problems. Good Luck.

I just looked on my trading machine, my primary card displays like yours, says 9600 pro, then under it 9600 pro secondary. It sounds like you have just the one video card. Make sure to use an ATI card, and preferably the same make as the original card. I would recommend another x300 card, and...

Scalper, have a look at the entire back of the machine. There may be another VGA or DVI port over next to where the mouse and keyboard plug in. It sounds like you have an x300 onboard video, integrated into the motherboard, and then that x300 add on video card. I bet you already have three...

Scalper, On your computer, open up the control panel, go under performance and maintenance, then open up system, select device manager, and click on display adapter. Then post what kind of video card it tells you you have.

Scalper, Did the guy tell you the model # (ie 9250, etc.) of the card? Does the cable you have now have the same ends on it, meaning would the ends fit into each other male/female? If it has a 60 pin connection on the video card end, it should support two separate screens. Some of the...

Well, it depends on your video cards. It may be showing 4 monitors, because one of the video cards might support 2 monitors via a split cable. Some cards have one output on the video card, but have dual head adapters that hook up two monitors. What video cards do you have? You can get the...

Scalper, under Display Properties, did you click in the boxes at the bottom left "Use this device as the primary monitor" amd "Extend my Windows desktop onto this monitor"? If not that is your problem I bet. I did the same thing :D

The problem is, that now ANYTHING can be outsourced quickly. Our greedy multinational corps will outsource any significant biotech and nanotech industries quickly, IMO.

Thanks Whitster!

Whitster, can you elaborate a bit about what you mean. Arnie seems to have a point. If there is a nuke or some other major event, I bet the market will drop right through stops and not trigger them. However, nothing would frustrate me more than to have my stop hit, and then watch the market...

C'mom guys...I can't believe what I'm hearing here! He's a Wall Street Analyst giving a public forecast. That's as good as Satan saying buy here. These bastards get paid to suck the sheep in.

Uh, yeah there is a way to stop it...it's called tariffs, and for hundreds of years it has protected the West from the third world. It is obvious to everyone that China and India can do everything cheaper than the US. What has happened in the last twenty years is a moral decay among business...
