Yes I have. I think the correct phrase is that they have been "supposedly" coded for MM - they haven't been "successfully" coded for it. As I said earlier, the problem with any code based on the Kruzel algorithm is that there are a lot of times when it doesn't compute the correct eighth...

wd78 - Be careful of the TS, WL, and eSignal scripts - they look like they're implemented by people who don't really know MM and are just reproductions of an overly simplistic algorithm of Tim Kruzel that's on a couple of websites. Problem is that the algorithm doesn't compute the correct...

Jack - what are you talking about? "Stuck in their reasoning"??? As Joe Friday would say - it's just the facts ma'am. If ANY indicator can be made usable - how about you apply "a little mental effort" and produce an RSI indicator that's profitably tradable in any market condition...

No performance difference. However, if you use a NAT router or a router with an integral firewall then it's not "masking your IP", it's actually blocking unsolicited inbound traffic to you. And don't underestimate what that means - especially if you plan to leave your DSL link up 24/7...

Straight MA crossover systems have been backtested and results published loads in the journals. They work in trending markets and get chopped up in choppy markets. Besides what's already been published, the whole thing should be axiomatic if you just think about it a little. It's inherent...

The ETFs don't have a downtick rule.

gnome - nope, it was Systemworks. There were Norton processes running almost constantly in the background. Could have been how he let the installer configure it, but frankly there's not much in Systemworks except NAV I personally find worth installing - especially with Norton's renowned code...

Re: Norton Systemworks - I use Norton AntiVirus, but personally would NOT use Systemworks. It's a huge resource sucker. A friend recently installed Systemworks and things came to a crawl because of all the crap Norton loads up with that thing. Had to deinstall it and just load NAV...

They're going to be incomplete. They only scan for a comparatively small subset of viruses and they'll only find those AFTER your machine's been infected. You really should pop the few bucks and buy an active virus scanner (one that will scan all inbound email and periodically scan your...

Right, put your sensitive files on a Unix machine and be absolutely guaranteed that there's no security :)

Does hotmail have the option of blocking users and domains? If so, just start adding the various email addresses and/or domains that most of your spam is coming from and you'll stop seeing it. Those using regular email with Outlook, you can do similar by creating rules that just dump spam...

Whether to use 1.5x or 2x depends on your base memory footprint and how many virtual memory hogs you run at once. Example - on one of my machines I've got 1/2 GB of RAM and I'm running 3/4 GB page file (1.5x). Doing 2x would be a waste of disk space. On the other hand, if you only had...

When you say it periodically "restarts", what exactly do you mean? Does it go blank for a moment and then completely reboot? Does it GPF and then automatically reboot? ??? Your problem could be as simple as a faulty connection in the power supply or an intermittently problematic...

No "bashing" intended - however understand that in the past it's not been enough that eSignal advertises on the forum, there have been innocent looking "wow this is great" posts in the past that turned out to really be from eSignal personnel. So it's easy to be a little suspicious of gushing...

If you want to post yet another eSignal ad, just do it - but when you claim you've got a MurreyMath study then it should be an exact duplicate. If you're just showing an incompletely worked out example of some cute line drawing to keep an eSignal pump thread going - great, say that but don't...

Cute - it would be better if it was actually computed correctly though :)

SOP - They're going to try to keep the name of the third party processing company quite.

Beta is also applied to a given security, not just a portfolio (which can be done in aggregate) or a money manager perforamance. Each security's price movement is correlated to the wider market (usually the S&P 500) and has a beta coefficient that represents approximately how it behaves...

jem - The "OTC option" has to be notional. For the firm to have zero risk, they would have had to do something like I suggested earlier, i.e., setup a short in a firm level account against the long position in the trader account. So you're account is long the stock, but with the firm...

Since bullets are usually one day creatures, are you really long a put? That is, does this transaction really involve actual exchange traded options (i.e., do you actually have 10000 shares long of XYZ and 100 XYZ puts long) - or is this just a firm-level bookkeeping transaction where they're...
