    Why do they hate us?

    If i tell you I'm white, or you going to argue I'm not? Pointless to argue with someone who does not even follow the basic rules of argumentation. French anti americanism is not real, it is fabricated, go to France and make up your own mind. I talk from experience. If you meet one guy who is...

    Why do they hate us?

    It seems like your are referring to the UN as something distinct from the USA and that's where you're wrong. The USA is part of the UN, a big part at that. If it has such a strong case against Iraq, why couldn't they make a better case? Veto or no Veto, they would not have had majority and...

    Why do they hate us?

    lied to, misled, betrayed?? Are we living in the same dimension? Who lied to whom? My take is that Chirac was right to doubt the US's intelligence. It's funny to see all these top US Gov officials all say "Well the Iraqis did a great job at hiding those WMD, better than we expected, it's...

    Neural Network Programming

    Neural Networks can work and I have a couple of setups that are pretty interesting (in monte carlo analysis) on paper trade (slippage+commission). The advantage is that it finds many correlations that a human eye cannot see, the downfall is that the human has no understanding what triggered...

    Why do they hate us?

    Very good article Kymar. Very objective and empirical, I liked how they use the word victim as being a sort of dead casualty as if the word "victim" doesn't mean the kind that has to go through weeks without water or electricity or the one that lost a loved one, the one who suffers...

    I Hate Myself

    lol, I went through that phase when I started out. It's gonna hurt. Either you get out of your position now, and do some more soul searching, or you go through catharsis, lose ALL of your money and go through a period of self reflexion. Either way you cannot keep trading like that...

    4.78 profit factor, 63.89% win rate

    What was your starting capital ? It seems you only have $1000 profit on 832 bars of data (that's over 3 years of data...) Depending on your starting capital it may or may not be a good script.

    4.78 profit factor, 63.89% win rate

    minimum of thirty years? lol You can do Monte Carlo Analysis without having to go back so far. Actually, so much backtesting is pointless.

    Why Not Use Margin?

    hmmmm, no offense but if you lose 50% on your positions you are COMPLETELY wiped out. If you lose 25%, you are down 50% on your capital. When are you going to stop trading? When your account reaches zero? Depending on your trading strategy, if your drawdown is expected to be 15%, that means...

    how to minimize the slippage?

    I agree with HarryTrader, slippage should be included in your backtest (just as commissions should be). You have to be very conservative, a good system without factoring in slippage can turn into a bleeding system if you factor it in. Good Luck nonetheless.

    vpn connection and lan

    The answer is yes but like everything you have to configure it properly. There are lots of howTOs on the web for that particular matter. Good luck.

    man is this cheap

    Windows2000 Pro is still the best Microsoft OS out there. I would specifically ask for win2k to be installed on it if it came with XP.
