    Network and Firewall Q's

    thanks, that makes perfect sense and clarifies quite a lot. admittedly my knowledge is really limited. why would i see outgoing connections to those 5 destinations, if i'm receiving content, not transmitting per se? Is the original destination basically sending out for the additional...

    Network and Firewall Q's

    thanks vm for your reply. the thing is, i reinstalled windows offline on both machines in the last 24 hours, and did a full spybot and avg scan 20 mins before posting. is there a way to associate outgoing connections with running processes, or a browser option to trim all the way down to html...

    internet security

    reading on the TS forums it looks like spyware has been known to target the tradestation data cache which leads me to believe a strategy hack from a trojan obtained on a trading website is plausible. the last time i was infected by a virus from a trading site, TS chart sessions reset from...

    Questions about NYSE

    in trading in general, the hardest fills to get are the ones with the most immediate edge. it's not particularly surprising to see a littany of guys on et who think nyse quoting and fills are a-ok. there seem to be two supporter camps, the clueless, and the ones who have a commission...

    Questions about NYSE

    well i'm personally kind of looking forward to calling in every single instance and starting a record of calls on the 2 guys i deal with. i have a feeling if they see that i'm willing to do it every single time, it will probably cease fairly quickly because otherwise they'd be racking up at...

    Questions about NYSE

    i'd rather not name the symbols, but i agree. i have called them in for fills before and the only reason i didn't today was because i was celebrating mid-day with a little(?) whiskey and also fairly busy with the vol occasionally when he pulls his quote and raises the mkt if i'm looking to...

    Questions about NYSE

    i don't know what to tell you mav. he pulls his quote on me, very frequently. and we're talking about more like 3k-6k share positions transacted in chunks of 1-1000, occasionally the whole thing or even a reversal not that it really bears relevance to what he quotes.

    Questions about NYSE

    i'll try and make this easy for you. specialist quotes size at a price. i smart route an order to him. he receives my order, either doesn't fill at all or doesn't fill completely, and backs off. whether that's you, him or elvis doesn't matter. he maintains a book and frequently dishonors...
