    Fed Announcement is non-event now?

    I wonder if I am alone in this feeling. I used to be very excited trading the Fed Announcement day. After the announcement is out, it used to cause SPY to jitter up and down at least $1 in just a few minutes. Stocks like AAPL would go up/down $2 to $3 - that it when it was below $200...

    How to Protect Your Income from Taxation?

    I don't quite understand. Exit tax. 30%. A tax on what? On all your asset? How about if I give all my money to my friends/relatives... what's there left to tax?

    Matcha's Dow E-mini Journal

    Hmm... no wonder. The Brooks' Camp. :) I had found a cave and went in and sealed the entrance to meditate for seven years. I told my apprentice that I may not be disturbed under any circumstances. I am developing my next level of kung fu that is to shock the world... :D

    Anyone Had this Problem with Extended Display?

    I am not familiar with the Intel Graphics and Media Control Panel. I think you should use the display control that is provided by Windows (Win7). Start >> Control Panel >> Adjust screen resolution. You should see something like this: 2 rectangles representing the monitors "1" and...

    Matcha's Dow E-mini Journal

    Good work Grasshopper! But I might have spent too much time on another planet. I recognize what HH and LL mean. What is BO PB H1 H2 H1s? Mostly what is H1 H2 H1s? PO? TYA...

    Anyone Had this Problem with Extended Display?

    Are you using Windows OS? (If so) Which version of Window? Do you see 2 rectangles in the Display Control? Do they line up?

    Money/In and Out Indicator

    Are you thinking of the "Money Flow Indicator"? I never am too interested in this indicator because I don't know how they can figure out how the money flows based on stock prices.

    Risk of Power Supply Overload Using Two 2-head Graphics Cards?

    I think that the risk is small. The 2 boxes that I have retired are HP/Compaq SR5610F desktop. I used them to drive 3 x PCI/PCIeX16 PNY Technologies dual cards (it's 3 cards on each box) for about 2 years with no problem. The SR5610F also has a 250W power supply, and the chip Athlon 64 X2...

    Wireless Routers

    Since the last post, let me step back and ask this question: PIPMAGIC: Are you setting up "your network" for your home (home-based office)? Or for your commercial type of office? What is the price range that you are looking at? Under $100 or >$3000?

    Wireless Routers

    I had mis-typed. I meant to say: As for wireless security: definitely wireless is less secure than wired.

    Getting Started Day-trading

    Why argue with a post that is more than 3 year old and an online handle that has ceased to be active for more than a year?

    Wireless Routers

    I used to use a Linksys (now Cisco) wireless-G router. About 6 months ago I switched to a faster wireless N-150 standard and someone recommended, and I bought: Netgear WNR1000 N-150 wireless router http://www.netgear.com/products/home/wirelessrouters/simplesharing/wnr1000.aspx It works...

    Motherboard and PCI-e slots

    Do the video card makers specify how many lanes out of the x16 they actually use if the card is for PCIx X16 slot? I don't recall seeing this kind of specifications but I might have missed. I always assumed all 16 lanes are used.

    Bye-bye Comcast Digital TV

    Can't believe that I have been paying Comcast for their Digital TV for about $100/month (with taxes and all the "fees"...) for so long. Close to 500+ channels... but still with nothing good to watch. Think a little more: all I used Comcast Digital for is to access the Discovery-Science...

    Motherboard and PCI-e slots

    2mTrader: you have 2 PCIX16 cards. The motherboard you mentioned only has 1 PCIX16 slot. I am not sure if it will work because the other one is PCIX16 slot running at X4. Scataphagos: I am not saying mixing slot types won't work. Personally I just will avoid it to save some...

    Anyone has more than two computers?

    I would not be able to tell. KVM switches can be hidden under the desk. You can switch between different computers with a keystroke on your keyboard.

    Motherboard and PCI-e slots

    To answer the first question, you didn't indicate whether your NVS 295 cards are made for PCIEX16 or PCIEX1. Some vendors produce cards with the same model number but fit on different slots (e.g. x1 or x16 or PCI or AGP). That motherboard you mentioned can only house 2 NVS 295 if they are...

    Need Help Selecting a TV as a Monitor

    It's hard to lump all "TV" into consideration because they use different technologies. The older CRT, rear projection and DLP technologies are definitely not usable as computer monitor. The current technologies: LCD and LED may work. Plasma is marginal. I have a 50-inch plasma monitor...

    Ban retaildaytrader

    I think banning RDT is a good thing. He, and participants like him, really has no real contribution to the discussions of trading topics but continuously posts provocative threads - and as he said - for the sole purpose of upsetting others to amuse himself. But also like he said, he would...

    This is too quiet... What happened to the 10-page a day speed? :D Are you settled with your choice of the video card(s) now?
