You are practically there. We'll know more on Monday hopefully.

I need to make a better menu. This will be included Monday as well.

At the suggestion of Metooxx (thanks for your help!), I am going to look into Beowulf clusters.

4K is what I have in my trading account. If need be, I have access to a lot more. I just want to go into this battle with swords sharpened and shields shined. No offence to you but you're going to be a small fry in my game 3 years from now.

You could check Dr. Watson. The update on Monday will resolve a lot of the problems. I am going to look for another installer besides the package and deployment wizard offered by MSFT.

Can I just short 10 ES contracts and hope I don't get stopped out before the next terrorist incident?

Oh dear ... P+ and P- are for scalping and go in as market orders for ES and NQ. Thanks for the suggestion for the price adjustments, though. That could come in handy. Perhaps everyone should wait until Monday for the new version. I'll try to throw together a preliminary manual so...

Perhaps I do need a better algorithm. I don't have the time to refine an algorithm, though -- so if it isn't precise than hopefully the brute force will just cover any small inefficiencies. I have a couple projects in mind. I want to run a lot of volatility studies, test several systems and...

Are running the latest version? A lot of what you said has been fixed. I will have a new download on Monday. The paper-trading module will be hooked into a database so you can buy the ask and sell the bid -- which is approximate to real life but actually ever-so slightly tougher. However...

"aphie" is still around and has 4.2k of his 5k and breaking even right now.

Stock version will be ready after this weekend. I am going to do some extensive testing over the weekend to make sure it has no bugs -- or at least no major ones. The first released version of the stock module will have .01 cent increments for stocks. Since Jasper is about speed of...

Forgot to answer this. Showing the order-depth is something that could be made possible if InteractiveBrokers adds that function to their API. Although you can get market-depth through their TWS, I have not seen any market-depth function in their API. I'm sure this could be easily...

I'll get right on it. I am rewriting a massive amount of code to make it run even more efficient. I had to do some rewriting when I put in the stock module. The stock module is turning out fantastic. In the picture, you will see where I have standing limit and stop orders. The blue...

I just checked the Top 500 for supercomputers and I was mistaken. I thought they had gotten up to 100 teraflops, but the highest ranked one is 35 teraflops and that was designed by NEC and is in Japan. Frankly, I'll settle for what I can get -- if I can get half a teraflop of number...

My first shot is to call up the University of Maryland and ask them if they have any open time-sharing slots on their system. Unfortunately, even a couple linked Pentiums won't be able to work for me. I want to do various types of number crunching on a few billion ticks worth of data...

I am going to probably break up that part of Jasper and make little buttons that allow you to bring up whatever it is you want. And yes, that could be done, too. Right now, I am working on the database part for Jasper. Each time you make a trade, it will record all details about the...

A word to everyone: *ALWAYS* confirm within TWS that you are flat before shutting down. Check to make sure you have no pending orders. Please keep in mind that Jasper is meant to supplement TWS and not replace it. What TWS says should always supercede what Jasper says, or any other...

If Wally could get it to install on his Windows 98, then apparently I was mistaken and the install program does work on Windows 98. If you are doubling clicking setup.exe and it is bringing up wordpad, something is very amiss. Have you had trouble loading other programs (setup.exe's?)...

I am curious if it is possible to rent time on a supercomputer. My needs would require around 500 gigabytes of RAM and a machine capable of processing information at around 5 teraflops. How much does it cost to rent a supercomputer, where can it be done (university, etc) and what language...

Then what would you have to lose?
