    XP Pro or Windows 7 ?

    As many here are using 8 now, I was wondering if anyone has tried using eSignal or IB on 8. eSignal said they are still testing it and CS at IB said they didn't know if TWS was compatible with 8. I'm buying new computers shortly and would rather go with 8 if these applications are compatible...

    Help me to build 6-8 monitor trading battle station :)

    Crossed out HDMI! So the cheapest would be the Nvidia640. I'll definitely look into the cards you recommended when I buy new monitors. The only reason I don't want to buy new monitors now is that the ones I have now are 7 years old but are as sharp as new. Thank you again.

    Help me to build 6-8 monitor trading battle station :)

    1. Thank you. 2. Those 3 cards are the only ones Dell offers for the 8500 model. And the 7570 has 1 HDMI and 1 DVI port. So to avoid the HDMI port as you suggest I'll have to go with the 640 which has 1 DVI and 1 DP. And I guess that would be better as someday I'll replace the monitors...

    Help me to build 6-8 monitor trading battle station :)

    Given the high level of the contents in this thread, I'm embarrassed to ask such a simple question. While I understand computers, when it comes to graphics cards I've no experience and I'm really lost. I'm going to replace 2 old Dell Dimension desktops (each has dual monitors) wth 2 Dell...

    Interactive Brokers TWS Bug Thread

    For reasons unrelated to TWS I just reinstalled Windows on another PC and did a clean install of the latest version(932.2). And just as happened when doing the same thing as mentioned above I get the order confirmation pop up when modifying an order to a new price in BookTrader's BID/ASK...

    eSignal 11 on Windows 8

    As I said [But eSignal said they haven't tested 11 on 8 yet.]. But having spent the last few hours reading what people are now saying about 8 and how they have problems displaying multiple windows on the screen, I'm leaning towards going with 7. It sounds as though running a number of...

    Interactive Brokers TWS Bug Thread

    A couple of weeks ago I reinstalled Windows on an older computer. And installed 930.4. As always the one-click order works in BookTrader. However, when modifying an order's price by clicking on Bid/Ask Size, the Order Confirmation window pops up. Then, after checking the Don't Show This Message...

    eSignal 11 on Windows 8

    I need to buy 3 new computers, and would rather wait until next week for Windows 8 and slightly better hardware. But eSignal said they haven't tested 11 on 8 yet. Has anyone tried using 11 on a pre-release version? And if so, would you please let us know if it seemed to run smoothly. Thank you

    TWS on Windows 8

    >vicirek >RoadBerry Thank you very much for the information you provided. Based you what you said I'll wait for the winter models that come out this month with Win. 8 installed. Thank you again for your time and trouble.

    TWS on Windows 8

    Yes, but I remember some software that was not compatible with 7, XP etc. at the time those versions were first released. While I would like to buy the latest models with 8 installed, if there are initial problems with 8, I'll buy the current models with 7 and a $15 option for 8. That's why...

    TWS on Windows 8

    I'm going to buy some new computers shortly and was wondering if anyone, including IB, has tried TWS on a pre-release version of Windows 8, and if they encountered any problems that didn't exist when using TWS on Win.7. Thank you.

    Trading Japanese Stock Session

    Stock options are available on a very limited number of stocks. And the last time I checked the trading was much too thin.

    Trading Japanese Stock Session

    Forgot to say that as of right now you can't short Japanese stocks thru IB but they are working on making this available shortly.

    Trading Japanese Stock Session

    I live in Japan, so I'm not sure of this, but from what I've heard the only brokers in the U.S. thru which you could trade Japanese stocks would be IB or ETRADE. Many people think they can open an account with a Japanese broker here. That's not possible from outside Japan as they require a...

    A little confused about understanding candlestick charts

    >Zr1Trader If you want to think that "....are almost nowhere to be found." means the same as "....there aren't any....", you are free to do so.

    A little confused about understanding candlestick charts

    You're right, I shouldn't have said anything. And I wouldn't have if I hadn't forgotten your handle to be that of the one who is disliked, ignored and/or laughed at in nearly every thread in which he comments. So, this 'jerk' will now let you get back to your fun with Rosy Palm and her 5...

    A little confused about understanding candlestick charts

    If you had understood what I was saying, you woudn't have said "That's false". But who am I to question someone who knows everything based on the fact that he knows 6 Japanese traders, when I guess I've met almost 6000 traders in the near 50 years I've lived in Japan. Boy, I'll bet you can...
