Hi, Guys Going to be buying a new laptop and after a lot of research and hands on sampling I decided to buy a 17" HP 9700 series. I'm trying to decide between two different models. One is the new dv9700t with the specs shown below. And actually they had a $400 off coupon a couple of weeks ago...

I didn't say there's no difference in trading different products. I am saying that trading index futures like the S&P is pretty basic stuff. A lot more basic than the eurodollars spreads you're talking about. She ignored very basic trading rules in trading something that is pretty straight ahead...

Sorry, but this doesn't have to do with what product she was trading. This has to do with gambling and not using money management and it has to do with averaging down and not using any type of stop loss. "Awesome" traders just don't make this type of mistake. The problem with averaging down is...

Here's a really good review of the Inspiron 1525 which just came out and replaces the 1520. It has lots of nice features and I almost bought one but unlike the 1520 it doesn't offer a dedicated video card option but only the integrated one...

I don't like IB's new margin requirements on futures at all. Which other futures brokers do you like? Anyone?

Thanks for trying and thanks to Bitstream too. IB are you there? Won't you please reply to our query? We're your customers. Won't you tell us your thinking on this matter? It would be appreciated.

You're welcome.

Thanks for sharing that. :cool:

Whatever you say boss. You're obviously a big time trader. We could tell right off. :cool:

I was thinking of the troll factor after I posted that. :)

Exactly. Here's Maestro's trading station from an earlier post. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=719192

Who in the hell are you? Do you work for IB?

Why 4%? Why not 2% or 3%? I was just in the process of refunding my account today due to medical problems I've had that kept me from trading this last year and was startled when I looked up the intraday initial and maintenance margin on YM, ES, and QM, especially. These all seem to have doubled...

Wow! That's unbelievable! Thanks for that link! I don't really use this for trading myself and forgot lots of you do, but I do use it for lots of other things. Thanks xiaodre! Glad now I posted my post about why the thread was here or I probably wouldn't have seen this deal. :D

Not sure about the iPhone but do know Safari is the preferred browser for MACs. Also WebTrader runs on Firefox 1.5 and 2.0. http://individuals.interactivebrokers.com/en/software/requirementsWebtrader.php?ib_entity=llc

What's this thread doing in the trading software forum?

The problem is, that seems to be what we're doing. Diplomacy seems to be on leave under this administration. Their motto seems to be "Carry a big stick and use it." And the other problem is realistically what would "winning" in Iraq look like? This is a civil war and how do we win a civil war...

Yes, sorry about your illness. I just had a heart attack and surgery a few months ago and I'm just recovering myself.

It's people with thoughts and attitudes like yours that create the conflict in the first place.

Just justify any action by saying this. Torture, government surveillance of it's own citizens. Any action is justified as long as we say it's because "we're at war." Is that correct? Sounds like Rumsfeld's coming out of retirement.
