    Mini Corn, Beans etc

    I was trying to add YC to a watch window and IB wont let me select the month... Visiting the products section of their website, YC is not listed as a product. Neither is mini wheat or soybeans... Any suggestions???

    Who's your trading idol?

    Darn someone beat me to it. Myself. That guy is fantastic. How he makes mistakes (losses arent mistakes) recognizes his errors and works harder on his flaws.

    DSL Distance to telcoe office question

    Personally I switched from DSL to cable. I pay for the 8.0 pkg but routinely get 19.0 down speeds. It's nice to see large files download at 1.9 MB/sec :)

    DSL Distance to telcoe office question

    Sorry I read to fast and missed your Question.... Being near an unmanned office means nothing if it IS NOT a CO. CO's have all the network hardware, etc necessary to connect you to the net. an unmanned station can merely be a junction point and not a CO.

    DSL Distance to telcoe office question

    I cant speak of mileage, most Telcos measure the distance in CABLE FEET. Or how long the wire is. Anything below 5000 feet of run you can easily get 8.0mbps and higher down speeds. Above you start losing. at about 11K you can get a max speed of about 1.0mbps At 14K speed of 640kbs...

    Winning or Making Money?

    I hate losing money so winning, (being right), is meaningless to me, unless it means I am making money. I ascribe to the old adage. Ride your winners, cut your losers short. I meditate it like it's the bible. Sometimes I screw up. (But I screw up small) and when I luck up and my strategy...

    Smoking Some REFR

    So let me see... Help me out here..... If the stock price of a press release company goes up and you clip a good portion of that ride while it is going up and perhaps a good portion while it's going back down, was that a bad decision on your part as a trader???? Or should you have...

    Smoking Some REFR

    Guess they figured you knew you picked a winner. LOL. I have had this one on my radar and jumped on it today as well. Missed the 1st .50 cents but hey... 1.75 ain't bad a clip. I had about the same luck this week. Very minimal gains. Really choppy 1st 3 days for me. REFR made up for it...

    Can you boot a Macbook in Win XP only?

    Just a note. If you turn off the windows PRETTY windows and use classic mode, you will only use 160MB - 250MB when running XP in parallels. Please forgive me, I dont recall what they call it. I just know it is under the appearances panel. Finally. Boot Camp doesnt "Gum up" anything. When...
