    Recommend a Trading chair

    I'll be standing when i can justify spending 6k to the wifey on an electric, dual-tier, adjustable height table. http://www.afcindustries.com/corner_DT_side_mahagony.htm The adjustable height gives you the option of sitting or standing. Sitting on my butt 10hrs a day can be brutal on the...

    Looking at a CRT vs. LCD for long period of time.

    Well if you can justify a $6K desk, get one of these minus the illuminators: <url>http://www.afcindustries.com/corner_dual_tier_mahag.htm</url>

    TA software for multi monitors

    TradeStation is great but you'll pay for it (~140/month) if you don’t make 10 or more round trips on index futures, or x number of shares. I like ensign for its speed and indicator flexibility also but TS and eSignal are great on maximizing available screen space. What really annoys me about...

    Iran and American Interference

    southamerica, I disagree. The whacko Iranian Mullahs don’t care about mutually assured destruction? They don’t care if they die. Ahmadinejad has been quoted as saying with the destruction of Israel the 12th Imam will return. You don’t negotiate with insanity.

    Iran and American Interference

    You left out one tiny but very, if not the most, important fact in your article. Iran has publicly stated their Israel Policy is total destruction. Simple logic escapes you, and everything after the date on your first page is BS.

    Trouble sleeping :(

    I went to the local health food store the other day to purchase valerian and kava and the in-house "expert" talked me into purchasing calcium-magnesium. Any comments on this supplement? I haven't really noticed any difference. If it doesn't work I’m going back for the two aforementioned...

    Tradestation Data Feed: MIA

    Major lag problems on my end! I've missed several nice runs on ER2 due lag problems. As a new subscriber to the TS platform, I'm having second thoughts right now. Is this normal TS behavior or an anomaly? Thanks Kent

    Steel prices

    My family is in the development/construction business and they are local reps here in Houston for several major pre-engineered steel manufactures, two of which are Nucore and Star. I've been told by both manufacturers that China is buying all of our scrap steel here in the US for their...

    Trader assistant wanted in Los Angeles

    Hey thetraderprofit, Was that the Pizza Hut on the corner of Pech Rd. and Longpoint across from People's Bank? If so, I was 14 in '74 and used to eat there all the time, especially during my High School years. Kent

    eSignal 7.6 : what can we expect ?

    Andy, Thanks for the update but your answer is discouraging, to say the least. This is such as serious issue that it should have been resolved by now. I don't know how other traders deal with this problem unless i'm the only esignal customer using sub-100T tick charts. I would like to...

    eSignal 7.6 : what can we expect ?

    eSignal 7.6 : what can we expect ?

    Andy, Do you know if the major problem with indicators getting out of sync with prices on tick charts is going to finally be resolved in 7.6? This is a major issue with me since I am continually "Reloading" my indicators to keep them in sync with price. Thanks, Kent

    Comments on eSignal 7.x and above

    Chuck_T, Based on your response to TonySanDiego it looks like you may hold the key to getting some major flaws fixed, or at least have some major influence. I'd like to throw one your way if I may. For anyone using tick charts, in my case on the e-minis in the 25tick range, you can forget...

    Ramp up size of ES, NQ

    Just as you have rules in trading, you should have rules that govern number of contracts traded. You can either limit your risk to a percentage of your account, usually 1 or 2%, or so much margin per contract. For me personally, I prefer to have a minimum of $4000 per contract on the ES, even...
