>which part of CA are you in.. i am planning to >move to CA, want to hear housing in CA. Moved to La Jolla (San Diego area) about year ago from Los Gatos (SF Bay area). Housing here is about 25% less then from whence we came, but still not cheap. Our 20yr old 2,800sf house is on Mt...

Magna, I was sort of enjoying hearing folk other than those of us here in CA complain about the price of housing. :-) JB

>You seem to be a really angry person Read my other 300+ posts and then say that with a straight face Don. Just angry with you for your commercial pollution of the forum. Nothing more, nothing less. JB

>Peace and love! I'm all for it candle, but I'm also for people standing up when a great forum such as this is over run by business men selling their wares while chanting "I'm just trying to help". For christs sakes, his 'apology' even came with an advertisement ("Since many firms are very...

>Does that wireless network card work well? I use the Linksys and find it an excellent choice. Affordable, simple to install and reliable. Got mine at Frys Electronic. Don't know if they have those where you are Don, but Linksys is a pretty big name so it shouldn't be hard to find...

>Some of you trade "longer time frames" - and have >asked if we "allow" that. You know Don, your input here in the trading threads is interesting and at times informative (and at times completely wrong), but why don't you move this advertisment CR** to your sponsored "Professional Firms"...

I use Realtick (www.realtick.com) and wouldn't trade it. It ain't cheap, but it is speedy, reliable and flexible. If I was only doing long swings or end of day trading, I wouldn't spend the money for it. JB

Well, I tried to sign up with them a few months ago because I wanted to try out their new software (was interested in the automated trading features). The people were the worst of the salesmen type and insisted that just to toy with the software you must open up a 75K account (could have...

Thank for the fix Baron. JB

>This is why I liked the longer "hotlist" that we used >to have. Am I just imagining this? I agree with you. There are many times I check in and all 5 of the trading threads show new entries and I have to go to the full list and manually check to see if those 5 pushed any new stuff off the...

Man I'm glad I don't have to sit next to jerks like that. I like my fuzzy slippers and my friends on the speakerphone. Nice work Hitman. Best wishes for Dec. JB

The trading learning curve for most can be quite incompatable with the wife, 2.3 kids, house in the suburbs and golden retriever. If you want to learn to trade, I recommend you do it now before you get all tied up with the house etc. Take the advice of some of the wise people on this list...

>Am I missing something here?? If you want us to >see some trades then I great...I just don't seem >to be able to open them for some reason. I think Tony's only point was to demonstrate that he's real and trades significant volume on a daily basis. JB

Well, I glad to know I'm not going crazy. Kept entering my Username and password and it kept rejecting it. Thought I must have forgotten my password to had ET send it to me again. I'm sure they'll get it under control soon. JB

>You could simply type it in Word while offline >and paste it into ET I use broadband and with that am 'online' 100% of the time. If I was on dialup I might use your suggestion, but as it is I would really rather just have my work in progress be given the time to gestate. I'll try to...

Thanks Candle. The worst part (for me) about that long post was I had to write 80% of it twice and 20% of it three times. For some strange reason, my Elitetrader entry screen just blanked all my text just before I finished (is there some kind of a 15 minute limit on typing in that window?)...
