Dominic. Thank you for telling us that TA is mostly useless. Bring your money to the brokers and get going with your 5 contracts. Do us a little return favor please. Start yet another journal thread about your going. Success will be assured! We like those kind of shows around here...

facultus, Not too long ago Patsystems came out with a Delphi "Proprietary" version of their API. This could have something to do with it. Look for 'API' at http://www.patsystems.com/ nononsense

Of course Ninja, if you want to go Windows -> Linux at once it would be nice to get what you call "a complete solution". I would not want to recommend any one in particular but several very good ones exist: IBM, Hp/Compaq, Dell, ... I certainly would not push SUN ahead of these! In fact I...

Why would this be a good start for Linux? I would say that this is something you want to stay away from. Why push beginners genuinly interested in Linux into a proprietary solution by people who have done all they could to escape Linux? Especially if you are "migrating from Windows" it's the...

cvds, Where did you get this from? "Spreadmarket" and "autoquoted" are terms that seem to be undefined at Eurex! Please explain. nononsense

Bernd, Your explanation doesn't hold water. Please read the pertaining Eurex page and come back to explain why this should lead to equality of Bid figures and equality of Ask figures in the top levels of the Dec03 and Mar04 contract. You could eventually argue that the Bid in one contract...

Hi All, I just happened to watch the market depth for both the DAX Dec03 and the Mar04 contracts, one next to the other as displayed on TWS. I was very surprised to find that the top bid and ask levels mostly display identical size figures. (Ask ALWAYS identical, Bid MOSTLY identical)...

For a while the Bid figures seem to be normal but the top level Ask figures are the same! Right now, both Bid and ask seem to be the same (wrong) again. Really spooky! Thank you madf. nononsense

Hi Guys, I hope that I am not intruding. I just happened to watch the market depth for both the DAX Dec03 and the Mar04 contracts, one next to the other as displayed on TWS. I was very surprised to find that the top bid and ask levels ALWAYS display the same size figures. The deeper levels...

Hi bungrider, Glad you told me. Good luck with your programming! Good to you, nononsense

Longshot, Congratulations. Can you tell us how many RT's you made? nononsense

Isn't this what Dominic was asking for? I gave him excellent advise. I clearly stated that 5 contracts was way too much to start with. What advise did you give him market_man? nononsense

Hi All, What is all that nonsense of trying to change peoples behavior? Aren't we talking about making money by trading around here? If you don't know enough about trading to make money yourself, how are you going to help others changing in order to get rich trading? IMHO having fear when...

Hi Dominic, Beginning with 5 contracts ES or NQ will finish you off pretty fast. nononsense

bungrider, I wonder about you. You called yourself a newbie in programming a few days ago and right here you are giving your thoughts about "supercomputers"! Funny at best. nononsense

Hi, Best use filter bags made out of natural vegetable fibers only. Not the cheap imitations. nonononsense

Bankedout, Unless you were planning on junking your computer anyway, I would replace the power supply without hesitation. Don't take risks! Replacing the fan inside the power supply itself can at best only be done by a technical person. Don't tarry, nononsense

Hi All, What would be the best graphical representation of Depth of Market (DOM). Several novelty graphics have been introduced. Any preferences, good or bad? Be good, nononsense

I would replace it immediately. Noise is a warning sign that one day it is going to quit on you and expensive to repair damage may result due to overheating. It ain't worth the few bucks it costs to replace it. If the fan is built in into the power supply, your problem is even more critical...

Me not, better double the number of ticks and halve the number of symbols. Let's face it, serious traders don't trade more than 20 symbols realtime. Pay for a service if you want to track more. Pick out of those that you want and trade them on IB with a superior tick stream. The problem now is...
