    Yeah Padu do it like you feel it. It's your money and you know the difference between playing it safe and playing dangerous. It's your choice.

    Question about Laptop Touchpad

    Touchpads can be very quirky especially on newer cheaper laptops. Much of the time on WinDOHs uninstalling and reinstalling the driver will help. Sometimes there is an updated driver that works better, especially if the model sold heavily and there are a lot of complaints. A paradox, I know...

    Cheap Dell refurbs (they sell out real fast)

    It's a good way to go for best bang for the buck. Too many puters from Best Buy, etc are all but unusable due to engineering quirks. For instance touchpads with no buttons that require a special driver only available for one OS/version. A keyboard with "HOME" or other key accessible only by...

    Cheap Dell refurbs (they sell out real fast)

    My trading machine is a Dell refurb, running Ubuntu. Using TWS and it runs without a hitch. The price was nice too.

    Anyone used Raspberry for trading?

    The graphics kinda suck for charting. Except for the recently released Raspberry Pi 4B, which will handle two monitors at 1080p, or one 4k monitor. Also the 4B can be had with 1GB, 2GB, or 4GB onboard RAM. I jsut ordered the 4GB model. Unfortunately EVERYONE is sold out and backordered. But I do...

    Trading Forex

    HAHAHA tempting but depending on volume I would probably have waited for a confirmation candle. At least you didn't lose much.

    LOL I will. Believe it. I will. Soon, soon. But not just yet. Your example has definitely inspired me, though.

    Trading Forex

    I have never traded anything BUT intraday. Stocks only, too. I concentrated on that market alone. Paper traded a bit, read a bunch of books, and traded small and live. Started with $10k. Made a great first day. Made a couple of withdrawals. Lost a bit, won a bit, lost a bit more, got kinda down...

    Holy cow, Padu that is awesome. You are gonna get rich. Do you have any unmarried daughters? LOL seriously my hat is off to you sir. I know, I know-- the magic of margin. Still that is good and it took some balls to bet out like that. Glad you made some significant withdrawals already. I would...

    Raspberry Pi project ideas

    There is also the Rock Pi, from China. A much more capable processor than the Raspberry, in the model 4A and 4B. OTG capability on one of the four USB ports, which facilitates the connection of external drives, printers, etc. Same footprint but different port arrangement from the Raspberry Pi 4...

    The janitor with the billion-dollar idea

    If he was an immigrant, how do you know he was an ILLEGAL immigrant? Not every guy out there picking grapes or cutting grass is here illegally, you know.

    Linux is another Operating System for computers. Not Windows. Not DOS. Not Mac. Not OS/2. Most Windows applications do not run on a computer running Linux. Some apps have versions for Linux computers, and some will run in a virtual machine on the Linux system, or in a Windows emulator such as...

    Raspberry Pi project ideas

    I had a look at the newly released RPi 4. Yeah it has 4k video. Yeah it supports two HDMI monitors. But it does not claim to fully support two 4k HDMI monitors at the same time. So not quite what I was thinking, but maybe still doable. I ordered a board and power supply (requires a bit more...

    Trading Forex

    HAHAHA yeah a $200 lottery ticket! Seriously though, I will be giving it some thought, but probably with $1k or so if I do. I might be interested on contact details of your favorite FX brokers. I still have to finish the book I am reading on Forex and I got a couple more, too. Anyway I am...

    Trading Forex

    Wow that's a lot of leverage! I guess it makes sense though, due to the typical low volatility of currency pairs. 500x leverage on 200 is 100,000 buying power? Did I lose a zero somewhere? So $1 per tick on a 10k lot if a tick is $0.0001? A 50 tick run then would be $50 profit? Okay, I can see...
