He once told me in a phone conversation that ToS "throttled back" the speed of the data feed so that it would not overtax the hardware resources of the trader ( processor speed and memory ). My jaw dropped to the floor . . . before I then asked him if he thought everyone was still using Pentium...

Congratulations on your very first post on ET. Opening up a thread that has been "dead" for nearly 3 years. What drugs are you on??? Just curious.

I like your LT count of the S&P. In fact, I like anyone's EW count that doesn't fall into the trap of believing that this is P2, to be followed by P3. Given the behavior of the rally, I would tend to believe that we are in the character of an "X" wave that connects two Zigzags. Prechter (...

Interestingly enough, Obama just appointed 3 Clinton era officials who have worked across party lines and cut economic deals . . . Bill Daley, Gene Sperling, and Jacob Lew. Under the latter, I recall that the economy enjoyed low unemployment and a budget surplus. Sperling was a key player in...

McCain: ‘The Issue Of Economics Is Not Something I’ve Understood As Well As I Should’ The New York Times’ Paul Krugman noted recently that, in a moment of candor, John McCain admitted economics isn’t his thing. “The issue of economics is not something I’ve understood as well...

Actually, I was able to run in front of your order via my Schwab Street Smart Pro Pimp Platform . . . and I was able to take an 1/8th out of that $33.

Nearly 10,000 posts by a guy that ranks right up there in the Annals of ET "paper-trading" lore with S2007S. Congratulations. Where would Baron and ET be without you? :D

Your not understanding the context of Soro's statement and trading methodology correctly. He goes for the jugular and dramatically increases his position size WHEN THE MARKET TELLS HIM THAT HE IS RIGHT. He doesn't just go in and take a huge position because he has "tremendous conviction"...

I heard that he was in Hawaii still trying to obtain Obama's birth certificate. :D

This smacks of the "X" wave that lead us out of 1974, which connected two Zig-Zags. If this is the case, and a major LOW was set forth in 2002, as well as March of 2009, then Prechter and all of his P3 "Kool-Aid" drinking buddies (read Hochberg) are going to be sorely disappointed and lose...

HFT makes up 56% of equity trading volume and 1/3rd of the futures volume. I would wholeheartedly say that it actually MAGNIFIES the intra-day movements and trend(s), which facilitates scalping.

Exactly! And Prechter and Steve Hochberg have had their head in the sand thinking that a 200 year Bull Market (and the industrial revolution) was coming to an end. That is why they missed the Wave 4 low at 667.... which just happened to be a a very simple Fib relationship (61%) drop from the...

Why someone thinks that this is surprising or shocking or "new" is absolutely beyond me. It happens all the time in any regulated sector. People frequently leave the FDA for Big Pharma, the Federal Reserve for Banking, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission for Big Oil, etc. And if you...

Try installing a new battery that goes into the motherboard. It's the one that is the size of a quarter, and flat. It supplies power to your BIOS chip, which detects your hardware when you boot the computer. No battery = no saved preconfigured BIOS settings.

Why are you trading the INDEXES? There have been continued HUGE moves in the COAL sector today, and since Dec. 1st. Try ANR, CNX, WLT, etc.

Bingo!

I don't even think that you need to go as high as i7 for a trading machine. You can get the Intel i5 - 760 that is an LGA 1156 socket CPU with 8mb of L3 cache and a Passmark rating of 4,561. And it costs only $200.00 :D

Pretty cool stuff. Using Intel's "Sandy Bridge" to be launched at CES on January 5th! http://www.electronista.com/articles/10/12/13/dell.precision.2011.pcs.leak.with.fractal.design/ http://www.electronista.com/articles/10/11/15/intel.says.sandy.bridge.to.show.at.ces/

:confused: Let me get this straight . . . You have a GRAND to spend, but you don't want to spend more than half of the Dell system that I highlighted above for $1250, which would be $625. Yet, in your initial post here you post an Ebay listed quad-core and quad dvi computer that you are...
