    Virus Problems

    Good Idea but make sure you backup everything important on your system before you format. Or you could just buy a new hard disk and format it with a Operating System and use the current one as a slave drive.

    Elite Trader Wishlist

    Baron, Maybe you should add a new section called "Journals" just for the journal threads. Since the success of Hitman's Journals, new threads with people's journals have been popping up. It would clutter up the Trading section if everyone created a new thread for their journal. Thanks!

    Any Indexs that are short?

    Is there any stock or index that you can buy that will go up in value when the market is going down? You can't short in cash accounts but I'm thinking of going short indirectly. Is there any way?
