Thanks for all of the responses... I appreciate it. I went from Vista to XP because I was never a huge fan of Vista to begin with and one of my quad cards (an ATI Firemv 2400 PCI) is only compatible on XP-32 so in order for me to upgrade from 4 to 6 monitors (and eventually 8) I needed to...

I reformatted my drives from Vista to XP 3 days ago and this is now just happening... Granted, I was only running 4 monitors on the Vista (and it still had minor efficiency issues every once in a while) and am now running 6 on the XP, but in terms of cleaning out your OS and doing a...

Hello all, Long story short... I've been trading for awhile, but have been working as an analyst at a firm for the past 6 years (and using their equipment and resources while doing so) but have just left them and am now in need of a strong, relatively fast, and most certainly reliable...

Thanks for the replies. That was one of the manuals I was looking through last night. Still having issues with mine (unsure of how I exactly take the IDE cable off of it), but hopefully I will work through them. Thanks again..

Hello all, I'm having trouble finding any help on removing my internal ultra ATA hard drive from my aluminum powerbook g4. I have the system completely opened up and have been looking for ideal ways to take out the hard drive, but I haven't see any that make sense (a fool to think it would be...

Our trading firm has a business deal with E-signal so I've used it for years. It does what I need with no problems.

Well, I decided to go with the Q6600. Seemed to make sense. Especially since esignal plans to develop into a multithreaded program by the end of 09. Thanks for all your help. Appreciate it. - Jon

I believe those systems come with 4 slots. There is a deal on a 4GB kit (2x 2GB) on newegg right now (30$ after rebate). Any real benefit of simply maxing it out to 8GB?

Sure thing.. Here is the quad 2.4: System Price : $729.00 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Operating System Genuine Windows Vista Ultimate -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Memory 2 GB...

Right now, I'm basically stuck between a refurb dual 3.16 for 709.00 or a quad 2.4 for 729.00. There are minor differences with RAM, HDD, and opticals , but nothing major.

Well, I'm trying to avoid running into overkill and overpaying for a system. Generally, I will have open between 10-15 individual charts (just candlesticks, MA's, and volume... nothing fancy) with another 6-10 quote boards (displaying roughly 50-100 individual stocks), all requiring real-time...

Just curious what others opinions are on building/buying a system for trading with a quad 2.4 vs a duo 3.0 (or similar combination, assuming same type of processor, just different speed)? I've been reading mixed views so thought that I would see what others thought on this board...

Curious, why do you prefer a core2duo over a quad?

Hello all, My comp is in the process of crashing out on me and I'm currently trying to find a new computer tower to replace it. I'm not very tech savvy so I'm not exactly sure what I'm looking for, and more importantly, where to find it/get a good deal online. I don't need anything that is...

Forgot to mention that my primary trading vehicle is equities. I also tend to nibble on options and e-mini futures from time-to-time, but I'm generally trading either individual stocks or index-based ETFs or sectors the majority of the time. Thanks again

Hello all, I've been trading for over 10 years, including 2 professionally with a rather well known firm in the downtown Chicago area (I'd rather not get into the specifics), but I'm currently entertaining the idea of making a transfer to another shop here in town. However, I'm not familiar...

Right, but that is for non-US and Canadian citizens only because of the aforementioned Fidelity relationship. - Jon

Thanks for the responses, I appreicate it.. I noticed that Wealth-Lab is only available through Fidelity if you are a US citizen AND if you trade through them at a frequency of at least 120 trades in a 12-mth rolling period at a ridiculously high commission cost. So my question is this: Is...

I guess for starters I was more or less curious as to what you thought about the program in general? Such as the pros/cons that you have identified by using it. Also, and more importantly, does it allow you to create your own systems, or does it only allow you to change the parameters of the...

Hello all, Just continuing my search for an easy to use backtesting program and I came across TradingBlox. I have taken a look through the website and it looks decent for starters, but I was wondering if any of the fellow ET'ers out there have had any experience using it? There were 3...
