Instead of giving a DLL example, dozens of which can be found on the net, here is an example of using the timer to speed up code. The code below was run 1million times using value56=6 and value56=10 If value56=10 then Begin end Else if value56=9 then...

C++ and freeware compiler. Try running your strat both ways and see if there is a difference. The DLL has to run as part of EL on my platform so I only timed around the DLL or EL code.

Awhile back, I did a speed comparison using a DLL compared to compiled/interpreted EZ language. I ran both of them as they would be executed by my platform. The results for a million runs may surprise you. 1 million runs EZ language compiled/interpreted code: 203 millisec 1 million...

As I mentioned earlier, using a DLL does not necessarily mean it will go faster that the regular code. For complex code it will go faster. C++ is easy to use for this, once you have the interface working. I would suggest you find a worjing example of C++ in the technical trading forum for...

Well, I did a speed test comparing a DLL to regular easy language code, and believe it or not, for simple functions, the EZ language interpreted/compiled code was faster. For stuff like array functions, trig functions, log functions etc, I believe the DLL is faster. This is because the DLL has...

Lol, I seriously doubt the software you speak of is "free". They might pay for it in other ways like commissions and fees. As I was told at a much younger age, "nothing is for free". It is also dubious to say consumers benefit by accepting poor software, in general, that they have to spend...

As I stated, customers such as you are part of the problem. I bought a certain software package earlier that I won't mention by name and submitted detailed bug reports. They then invited me to be one of the few to participate in the beta test for the next version of the software. I declined...

The problem I have with this "bug reporting" and "beta tesing" for any software is that the companies are using those who willingly sign up as slave labor. These companies are supposed to have quality/test departments that verify everything is working before the software is sold. These...

In your post, you imply that they bought at the peak. They bought in the $1100s I believe. The only difference is they have the gold instead of IOUs.

I don't understand your post. They bought the gold at around $1100 per ounce. They are taking delivery to have it in physical form rather than paper form.

This is a different topic. We are trying to predict how gov'ts will respond to these situations. Syria is more tricky becuase of the countries they border.

This is why using "humanitarian" and "protecting peaceful democratic protesters" pretexts for intervening can have limitations. What do you do the next time a gov't attacks democratic protesters in the middle east? If you do nothing or just pay lip service it becomes a double standard. It...

The Syrian gov't has shut the borders. Keep in mind this is the same thing the Hutus did before they attacked the Tutsis. I know people are going to say the West doesn't care about this possibly impending slaughter of innocent protesters because Syria only produces around 500,000 barrels per...

As long as we are giving them dollars that we create out of thin air for their goods and labor, all is well. If they start demanding precious metals on the other hand...

You should check your math. It is ~75% per quarter which is much worse than 75% per year. ~25% make money one quarter. But, due to the overlap, the next quarter some of those 25% will lose money, the quarter after that some of the remaining part of the original 25% lose money, and so forth...

http://in.reuters.com/article/2008/06/12/china-banking-trading-idINPEK33998520080612 I posted the following article on the 95% lose topic. I did not receive a single reply to my post. Posters who posted just their opinion, with no facts, received multiple posts. I think this shows why...

Here is a study where it was found that up to 90% of fx traders lost money. http://in.reuters.com/article/2008/06/12/china-banking-trading-idINPEK33998520080612

RE: Why do 95% of retail traders lose? One acronym to answer the question: RTTM

I guess this is why the rebels were in such a hurry. They did not want the West to investigate them too much before starting to attack the Libyan government. http://www.foxnews.com/world/2011/03/29/considering-arming-libyan-rebels-fight-qaddafi/

One can actually buy thin film solar panels for ~$1.1 per watt or less now in bulk quantities. Given that actual US electricity production was ~1.1 Twatt in 2007, the panels would cost ~$1.21T. The balance of systems cost for a solar plant on the ground( not inefficient rooftop installs) is...
