I just got my first LCD monitor. (Dell 18") I was actually pretty disapointed at first and wished I had purchased another Trinitron, then I adjusted the font settings and got Cleartype going and I was pretty happy. The problem is not all programs are getting the fonts "smoothed", and the...

Beginning May 1, 2003 we will be adding the ability to trade futures and option combinations in IRA accounts. At that time we will make an announcement on where to sign up and the specific new margin rules for these IRA account enhancements. IB is great. Sure, they pass along fees and...

More of his stuff is here..... http://www.santafe.edu/~jdf/

One of the authors is Doyne Farmer. He is a physicist who specialized in complex systems. He started a business with Norman Packard to create a large-scale automated trading system. There is a book by Thomas Bass which tells the story, The Predictors. It's one of my all-time favorite trading...

For those of you who use tc.net, do you still maintain a tc2000 subscription, or does tc.net do everything that tc2000 does?

My problem with Q-charts isn't necessarily this incident (no after-hours charts). It is the fact that there is ALWAYS something wrong, but it will be better tomorrow. I have heard years of promises and things just don't get better. I was especially disappointed when they began to charge for...

I finally pulled the plug. Q-charts is so close to being a great program/datafeed it's disgusting. I am too frustrated to put up with it anymore.

Someone posted a classic response to this question, and I crack up every time I think of it. "I am a piano player in a whorehouse." But seriously, what is it about MD's that make them such @$$wipes. (no offense to the fine physicians who frequent this board) Is it something that is...

There are many different kinds of probability density functions, (one of which is the normal distribution, also called the Gauss density). For example, there is the Gamma density, Chi-squared density, Maxwell-Boltzmann density, etc. They have different kinds of shapes and you try to choose...

Are Vermont and Maine roughly similar to NH lifestyle-wise? Are the economies similar? (ie housing market, job market,etc) I used to live in NH when I was a kid, but it was 20+ years ago. I wan't to move somewhere green. I've been in the desert of southwest Idaho for too long. We...

you said: ...watching Tiger Woods play a tournament start to finish...The way he positions himself on Thursday's and Friday's...How he tries to make his move on Saturday's and how he plays with a lead... I don't golf a lot, and maybe if I did I would understand... (and I have never...

As far as datafeed and charting capabilites go, are they at least as good as Qcharts? I wouldn't mind dumping Q, but I don't want to go backwards.

I got an e-mail from Telechart advertising a class for a new product, TCNet, which supposedly has real time data (I assume it's not the same real time product the came out with a while back then withdrew) The web site doesn't give much information. No price is posted as far a I can see...

This is me standing next to the new set of wheels I got with my trading profits. I had a hard time trying to decide between red and black. I didn't want to draw too much attention to myself, so I decided on black. :cool:

Just when I think I can change my nick, something happens. I am not a very demanding customer, but I just can't find a home. IB is great and I am very happy with them but with the recent cash account fiasco my IRA is crippled. I have the rest of my money split with two other brokers...

Peter (or anyone) I am a programmer wannabe... I have played with VC++ and got a couple books, but I am still pretty much nowhere with it as far a proficiency. My question is this: I have heard a bit about the new VisualStudio.net that is comming down the pike. As a newbie, do you think...

Eldredge, We are from the same neck of the woods. (Nampa myself) Did you use cable when it was @home or since it became Cableone? It was nice before cableone took over because they didn't cap the speed, and it was cheaper. It's good to hear a favorable opinion of DSL in case I need...

"Give a man a match and he'll be warm for an hour... Set him on fire and he'll be warm for the rest of his life." "Better to live on the corner of the roof than share a house with a quarrelsome wife." -Proverbs 21:9 "Better to live in a desert than with a quarrelsome and ill-tempered...

I sent Tradestation a list of questions about their brokerage policies, and they were kind enough to answer almost half of them. (I really don't understand it. You would think it would be worth their while to give complete and thought-out responses to inquiries by potential customers. Most...
