thanks. i already have the settings (and flashblock) except for 2 from your link. like i said, i think it's the add-ons. i have only 2 add-ons on my trading computer and FF loads fast. i have 10 add-ons on this computer and it takes a minute to load the browser and, to keep it usable, i...

anyone who uses firefox care to share their modifications that you've made to make it 'fast'? i prefer firefox but it is slow for me and hogs so many resources. i have made several recommended about: config changes, but it is still a hog. the add-on's are great but, if you use several of...

lol

i think it's $10/month. i subscribe for cnbc Asia and Europe. it runs about 5 seconds behind real time (when i watch US tv and compare to US internet). sometimes they have server issues, but generally ok. reality is, 'breaking news' is ignored for redundant segments, so i question why i even...

the interesting thing to me is the complete lack of volume. if you look @ the volume on the way up, it was at least 2x, and many days, 4x what the volume has been thru most of the decline. volume spikes really only come on up days too. never really witnessed anything like this. one would...

bump. planning an extended stay in SE asian myself and have the same question. i also have the same issue w/Thailand- agree that Phuket and other beach (as well as Chiang Mai) do not have a reliable connection for trading. hell, Bangkok isn't even as reliable as i'd like for my kind of...

lol

had to comment, as i always ignore clicking on stupid prediction threads. when i saw this reappear i figured i would find out why. fucking hilarious- made my night...

i can confirm it on a personal level. rode it out til indymac fell, and then it became a question of 'do i want to be that dolt who left himself exposed needlessly'. i brought both my personal and biz acct below 100m. talked to a friend who i know has $ and banks with them- turns out he has...

you're an idiot and a fraud on so many levels that it's really quite sad.

bump.

as title says, looking for real time tick by tick quotes/charts for Shanghai indicies. best i have found came from someone on ET referring me to sina.com. they are ok (better than i had before!), but not really.. they update every 20 seconds or so (seems random) and sometimes they don't...

thanks. it is NOT an IB problem. it is a comcast (and maybe others) issue with their connection to servers getting across the pacific. ATT connection was affected at first but is fine now. comcast still down to asia... and, yeah... shoulda pinged first thing. thing is, ib always blames...

TWS went pink 30 minutes ago. tried to reconnect using 2 different computers- 2 different connections (tried both dsl and cable- actually have 4- dial up and wireless also). obviously my internet access is working fine and i'm able to sign in to IB's website/the worthless webtrader/etc. IB's...

follow on question: people on et say that having eyesight and not being legally blind is critical or important to trading. Are there any good reasons for that? And what are they? Why? jesus. it's like this place is idiot central...

bump. here we go, down again. wtf?

signal got downgraded from an 8 to a 3 about 40 minutes ago. as per previous announcement, that should mean that there WILL be trading in the afternoon session. here's a link for you to add to your trading bookmarks: http://www.hko.gov.hk/contente.htm

IB: could you please get your fucking shit together. US futures/currencies have been going down every fucking night for the past >week. not just the usual ridiculous drop @ 12est thru 12.17am EST. now it drops in the 11 EST hour for well over 1/2 hour. it has also been dropping several more...

20 june: curious as to whether others view today's action as bearish. we had the kitchen sink thrown at CL: 2 attacks in Nigeria, Israel practice bombing Iran war games, Iran talking tough in response, talking heads calling for $250-500 oil, Chavez yacking, the dollar getting torched, talk of...

thought i'd attempt to start a thread on CL dedicated to technical analysis, since most CL threads consist of baseless opinion/emotion and justification of ones real or imagined positions in CL. ideally, if this thread gains any traction, i'd like to see commentary not only on CL technicals...
