TGregg I am running win 2000 pro. How would I check for an IRQ failure? When you say hardware failure do you mean something with the sound card? This morning I opened up my computer and discovered that I do not have a separate sound card. It appears that it is built in to the...

Thanks guys for all of the help. I just re-installed the driver which required me to re-boot. The sound returned for a few minutes and then within 5 to 10 minutes was gone again. I will try each or your recomendations and report back.

I recently did a clean install of win 2000 pro and installed the sound card driver at that time. The problem was present before and after the recent clean install. I will try re-installing the sound card driver again.

Thanks for responding opm8. I have not been able to correlate the problem with starting other programs. As weird as it sounds, it seems to just happen as the computer is running on its own. I have tried running the windows trouble shooter, but have not been able to resolve the problem.

Hi Ebo, you can hide the order bar if you like. The 8th icon over from the left lets you view/hide the order bar. You can also do this from the "view" drop down menu.

I am having a problem with the audio on one of my computers. When I first start the computer, the sound works OK, but at some point in the day, the sound just stops working. For example, I do not get any sound on order fill notification, price alerts, e-mail, etc. Any ideas why the sound...

I finally got to upgrade to TS7 today and try out the futures trading platform. My initial impressions are that it is greatly improved over the prior platform. Limit orders are probably the most functional from the trading tool bar. If you click on the bid, ask, or last, it will fill in the...

I have not followed Jack Hershey's posts, so I don't know what the signifcance of that is. Is this supposed to be a special set-up or just a different trade signal? I was also wondering what you are doing to exit trades that go against you. Are you using a fixed stop loss or some other...

Hey Dawg, I am enjoying reading your journal. It takes a lot of work to post all the details like you are doing. The charts make it very easy to follow. Keep up the good work. Are you paper trading the system or are you trading real money? Seems like you are doing quite well if you are...

I have used both. I can only think of one time that I have had problems with TS. The fill was delayed by a very long time (30+ minutes) and I was unsure of my position. Other than that my fills have been good with no slippage and have been reported as quick as J-trader. I generally don't...

Nope, no shadows. I used the cables that Dell provided with the monitors. I don't know what the quality of their cables are, but they have worked fine for me.

I would agree with this. I have had two dell 17" LCDs for about one year now. They have both digital and analog connectors. I have one of the monitors connected with the DVI connectors and one connected with the analog connectors. I can hardly notice a difference between the two.

I'm still waiting too. I was really looking forward to getting TS7 and thought that maybe it would take two weeks at the longest. I am now having my doubts that I will get to upgrade by the end of the month.

I don't recall seeing this in his posts, but it looks to me that he is trying to predict times when the market will turn. So if you see a swing high at 11:35 you would go short. This is only my casual observation, so I may be totally wrong.

Try http://finance.lycos.com/ In the symbol window enter es03h and in the next window over select "live chart" They have 10-minute delayed charts.

I am currently a TS6 user, so I can comment on the things that I know are true about TS6 and would assume that would be included in TS7. As far as commissions, they are quoting $2.80 per side for the e-minis beginning on March 31 I believe. If you do 500 round turns a month in the e-minis...

Links, thanks for the info.

Did anyone who trades the e-mini get to upgrade to TS7 today. I was wondering what your thoughts are on the new integrated futures platform.

mrpace, I was watching at the time the commentator made that comment. I was actually shocked by his comment because I did not know they got the info before anyone else. I made the assumption that if CNBC had the info, everyone else had it as well. I was thinking about going short, but I kept...

I also use the stand alone and have had no problems.
