    SPCUL8R Still avalilable in AZ! I'm getting this...it also goes well with my car, which is a Spec V. Hence, the plate could be interpreted as "Speculator" OR AS "Spec V you later" for the people that just don't know better.

    Day trading game

    Hmmm..thanks for the input guys. I never thought about the whole gambling law thing. I don't think they would apply, but you never know. Limit and stop orders would be kind of a bitch to implement though. Anyone know how that would work? Loop from market open to close and keep checking to...

    Day trading game

    Were any of you part of http://www.marketplayer.com/ ? When it existed? It was such an exicting game... Unluckly I found it only one or two weeks before it got shut down (or probably went bankrupt) and got to play it only once. It worked a little something like this. You paid a competition...

    I dont understand why people would even consider using advisory serivces. Trading off "hot tips" is the stupidest thing I have ever heard of. Learning how to trade yourself is the only route to take. Be a player in the game...

    hardware platform recommendations?

    Get 3 19''. You can always add a 4th 19'' later and charts look much better on a 19. The more chart data you can fit onto a screen the better it will be. A picture is worth a thousand words but a bigger picture is worth even more... :-)

    New Pc Needed

    I'd also look into getting a hyperthreaded processor. It helps when having multiple applications going. I think dell offers 2.4 or even 2.0 Ghz HT processors on thier systems.

    Advice

    I think many of you are correct. Made me realize, why should I change my strategy when what I'm doing is working perfectly fine? I could work and trade, its probably the smartest thing for me now. "Risking it all" is more of a hollywood story, and as we all know this isn't hollywood... Damn...

    And BTW, I think INTC is great and all, but computers just aren't my passion. When I was deciding on a major back in high school, I literally picked up an occupations book and saw what majors made the most money with the least amout of school time. Back in 99-00, CSE majors were not only...

    My track record goes a lil' something like this: 98-99: Didn't trade real money too much, just gave my dad advice. My "tips" did well, but everything did well. Honestly, I didn't know what the hell I was doing. 00-01: Open my first own account with 2k, trading actively on Datek with $10...
