    ATI FirePro Multimonitor Graphics Card Question

    Only way to know for sure is to buy one and try it... or maybe buy a used GDDR3 one off of eBay.

    ATI FirePro Multimonitor Graphics Card Question

    Most probably. I'd say nearly 100% certain. Worst case if not, replace your two older GDDR3 cards with newer ones for maximum performance... then sell your old ones on eBay.

    How are maintenance margins applied?

    1. The exchange sets minimum initial margin amount and maintenance margin amount for overnight. 2. Brokers may require more or less margin intraday than the exchange minimum. (If the exchange sets "minimum" margin and the broker allows you to post less, perhaps the exchange's "minimum" is...

    Cowboys Will Stand for the Anthem on Sunday, and for the Rest of the Season... "Hypocricy NOW?"

    Similar with NBA. The league higher-ups realized that if they piss off all of the affluent white people who attend games and watch on TV, attendance/viewership likely to decline... less revenue for the league and players. Little birdie told me the leagues came down with a directive... "you...

    Can someone help me understand E-mini futures contract price?(Screenshot inside)

    Neither. The value of the contract is ~$125,000... 2514 X $50/point. You "pay" $500 in margin to put the $125,000 in play. Your win or loss is determined by how much the $125,000 goes up or down.

    Can someone help me understand E-mini futures contract price?(Screenshot inside)

    The "price" of 1 ES contract is actually "The SP index X $50". IOW... the nominal value of 1 ES is $~125,000, at this time. $500 is likely the margin your broker requires for a day trade per contract on the ES.

    Broker Datafeed vs. Dedicated Datafeed

    I've recently changed from eSignal data to one offered by the broker..... so, somebody please correct me if I'm wrong. The data provider (Rithmic, CQG, other) makes data available to customers through brokers. Their incentive is to earn "platform" fees... either/both fixed monthly use fee...

    Why do stock index futures drive the prices of stock indices given that they're derivatives?

    It's neither. The actual story... Investors express their optimism/pessimism partly in reaction to news of all types. Years ago they responded to news by buying/selling "baskets" of stocks. While some may still use baskets, now they can accomplish the same financial objective with...

    Is there a benefit to paper trading?

    Paper trading will reveal strategies which don't work. When you believe you've got something that does work, trade it small with real money. The psychology of money and how it affects your greed/fear/discipline is a big part of winning or losing. You can later scale up to bigger size if...

    So, let's see.... In Green Bay, 96.5% of attendees to Packer games are white. 90%-ish of NFL players are black. And the blacks are telling the whites, "FUCK YOU". Sounds like a recipe for something negative for the NFL.

    Hey you can avoid the national anthem by remaining in the locker room... or you can kneel, give a Nazi salute... or even take a SHIT on the sidelines during. Doesn't mean the rest of us have to like it. When the public tunes out the NFL on TV... and stops attending home games/renewing season...
