    Multi-Monitor LCD @ 1600x1200

    You don't know what you're talking about. There is nothing more annoying than someone who acts like he knows what he's talking about but doesn't. Go to appian's website, it specifically mentions analog outputs for the appian x. The appian x is old technology, it was a first generation DVI...

    Multi-Monitor LCD @ 1600x1200

    Speculating on what some other guy may have meant at 1AM, huh? That has got to be one of the most Fucked up thing I have ever seen here, aside from bubba7 and harrytrader and......well I guess it isn't anything unusual for this site after all. This is like the jerry springer show for...

    Multi-Monitor LCD @ 1600x1200

    There is a version of the G550 that supports dual DVI. If you have purchased the card already and it does not support it, I would try to return it. If you have not purchased it yet, there are 2 versions, just make sure you order the more expensive one; cdw part #329522 You must order the...

    Multi-Monitor LCD @ 1600x1200

    You are smoking something over there. You claim (I copied it below) that you cannot use an AGP card because your Matrox G200MMS card is taking up the only AGP slot on your computer. That's funny, because the G200 MMS is not an AGP card, it is a f**king PCI. Let me repeat, there is no such...

    Multi-Monitor LCD @ 1600x1200

    before you reply so quickly. The nVIDIA Quadro NVS 280 does support dual DVI at 1600x1200. So do the following; nVIDIA® Quadro® FX 1000 ATI FireGLTM X1 3Dlabs® Wildcat4TM 7110 Like I said, nearly any new 8x AGP workstation graphics card will support dual DVI at 1600x1200 ( I...

    Multi-Monitor LCD @ 1600x1200

    Just look at cards for workstations instead of cards for video games. I only know of one cheapo card, the nVIDIA Quadro NVS 280.

    nyse non-specialist orders?

    I hate to be a spoiler, but the Specialist firms routinely "mix it up" or change up the traders dealing with the smaller names (and sometimes larger names too). That info is one the NYSEDATA website also, but you need a password. Anyhow, you will see there are literally pages and pages of...

    $13 bucks for a little booklet each month. $100 bucks if you want it electronically every day. I have been using it for a while. http://www.nysedata.com/info/productList.asp

    Truely Automated trading platform

    Surfer, I should have been more specific. 500k for everyone EXCEPT for a registered investment advisor (RIA). The Federal minimum for RIA's is 100k. This is per the "no-action letter" issued by the SEC on October 6, 1994. Most hedge funds are not RIA's for legal reasons. One good...

    Truely Automated trading platform

    It is not intuitive, but when it comes to automated systems, nothing is! Most similar systems are running on a Unix front end and are very complicated. They are doing the number crunching on your sun box, so if you are VWAPing a 100 name list, all the time slicing, order entry, cancel replace...

    Help: Delivery versus Payment

    Def - I know of at least one broker who calls me every day begging me to put on one of his brilliant positions. They will gladly take the risk up front. Now they usually aren't trying to get me to buy/short more than 10K shares. Really?! If IB really does do give-ups then you should...

    Help: Delivery versus Payment

    They take that risk to get new business. It's called going out of your way to make it right for the customer.

    Help: Delivery versus Payment

    IB's DVP is a joke. I can't believe anyone would even consider it. First of all, the whole reason a person or institution opens a Prime Brokerage account is to keep all of their funds in one place while gaining the ability to trade anywhere on earth. The money is all in one safe home, and...

    Truely Automated trading platform

    There are a bunch out there now. Every Big Prime broker seems to be coming out with their own platform. I looked around a lot and actually tried ITG's Quantex before switching to Goldman's Tradefactory. Flextrader is supposed to be awesome too, but here is what I've found......the hard way...

    Which software can determine the internet routing?

    not even close Gann The function as I said above is route, and to make it work properly you need three sets of IP's. As I said above, just type route into any DOS window and DOS will briefly define the function.

    Which software can determine the internet routing?

    You don't need software, you need to learn how to use DOS, or better yet, buy a cheap internet router! I have a similar setup and learned myself the trial by fire way. I have a pair of T-1's coming in through a Cisco 2600 router that is on one network IP address and a DSL modem on a separate...

    Appian Rushmore

    The new appians are only compatible with PCI version 2.2 or higher. Yeah I didn't know there were different versions either. I just upgraded 2 computers with a PCI rushmoor and a PCI typhoon and neither worked so I sent them back (after reading the fine print about the PCI compatability issue)...

    Broker with ECNs and API

    Sprear, Leeds, & Kellogg has a system called Redi Plus. They have an ActiveX API that can send orders (VB or C+++). If you want to send orders based on bid and ask prices from individual ECN's you have to have more than just an API because most level II data feeds do not have the capability to...
