How many refer to "a Gaussian" without really knowing what a Gaussian is? Do you even know what a normal distribution is, how to determine it, and correctly utilize it's properties? I ask this, as an example, because I want people to think harder(?) about what Jack is presenting to you...

You guys with a mind-set about Jack, parallel to this, are so superficial it makes me want to make this comment: :p Just allowing yourself to only see what's on the surface, will in most cases, not lead you to a truth or an in-depth understanding. Broaden your knowledge... THINK! I...

Hi jack, Maybe one of these days, you'll express to your readers the importance of intimately knowing and applying causal reasoning, not to mention other relative mathematics in the trading domain. Understanding causal reasoning sure would shed light for those that don't quite see it...

What exactly is the requirement to register at their website? I've tried from three different email accounts. What is a non-anonymous account, and how can I register if I am not at university and don't have a "work" account? thanks -kt

Just to throw in my own accolades for Trolltech's Qt. I love developing with it. But to the thread starter, learn C++ first... then you'll have a great openSource (commercial for qt-pro) framework to use in Qt. When you're ready, aside from Qt's awsome documentation, the Qt Centre Forum is a...

Hey Anton, Are you legitimately advertising on ET again? Where's the commercial marker in your signature? -kt

No, but I trust it's good just the same. This because I know that you are creative and innovative. I very much appreciate people who think outside the box. And that's what I remember most of you, back in the day of Muddy.

Ohh... Muddy. Those were the days. Wha's up Rumpler. Still drivin' Miadas :D? Just to mention, I still appreciate the idea of rsi(2), where as I really don't have much care for most conventional TA, these days. Still using Stockfetcher? I've been surprised that more people here on...

Check out the open source repositories. For instance do a "financial charting" search on sourceforge. http://sourceforge.net/softwaremap/trove_list.php

Daal reflects the Republican moral compass. Which, even though my values fairly conservative, is why I don't vote Republican. If you think about it, describing Republicans as being "conservative" is an oxymoron. Actually, they would be better titled as the Capitalist Party instead...

btw, just to clarify... Ubuntu is just like Kubuntu except except that it uses the Gnome desktop.

Preface There are many different Linux distribution ( distos ) flavors. Some are better known, and utilized more than others. The disto that I will be showing you how to install is called Kubuntu. This is a GNU/Linux OS with the KDE desktop. OS Terminology See in Windows, the operating...

Generally speaking, the OpenSource community is known to be great at helping others with questions or problems. And it don't cost a dime. Except, maybe, that you "pay-it-forward" and help others in turn. :) We'll also talk about the various places to look for help when you might need it.

I'm starting this thread to offer an alternative to using Windows as your only operating system (OS) / desktop window manager (WM). Also, the OpenSource community has provided 10's of thousands of pieces software (SW) that you can download and install. Guess what.... it's all free. Linux and...

You'll be surprised at how easy it is. I'll put an orderly tutorial together and start a thread called... "Let's Talk About Linux". -kt

If you're not using Firefox, Install it... try it. Include at least two extensions: No Script... which disallows all or individual Java and/or Java Scripting. Adblock Plus... Adblock Plus maintains a database of advertisements and are automatically blocked. You can also add custom...

Ha ! Did I just here correctly? They spent 6 billion dollars on development. :p Oh.. that's a riot. Reviewers are saying it's mostly eye-candy, and not even worth spending the money to upgrade from XP. :p kt says... Support OpenSource :)

Martin, thanks for your comments. Here on ET, I advocate the use of hdf5 for several reasons. First, is to inform and offer an alternative to relational database models. This is because, I treat trading as a science, and therefore I use the most adequate, open source, runtime-efficient...

Martin, just to clarify, my comments are never intended to inflame, but just offer debate of what I understand. Always, with total respect to yours and others' points of view. -kt
