Button Trader is centered around DOM trading but that's not my style so I don't know what chart support it has. Ninja is fully featured for simulated trading for free, apparently forever. I'm something of a nerd - I've tried almost every IB front end there is. I've even written a couple...

Encrypted volumes such as those in truecrypt are mounted as drive letters in Windoze. You can install apps into directories on the encrypted volume, though I'm not sure why you'd do that. Encryption is usually for data, not programs.

Depends on what you're after. I actually like NinjaTrader, but it's a little pricey and you may be getting features you don't want or need. (i.e. Charts and autotrading script support) Bracket Trader, QuoteTracker and IB TWS together work pretty well. Bracket Trader has configurable...

Look, you know what I mean, so quit wrapping yourself in the flag. I have yet to meet a fellow American that's not disgusted with the way things are being run. What's truly upsetting is that electing either party seems to have no effect on deficit spending. And it would be "you're" not...

Norway particularly would worry me with their heavy reliance on oil. I haven't heard any mention of their suffering from "dutch disease" i.e. a decline in the manufacturing sector due to the riches of discovering a vast natural resource. I guess Russia would suffer from that too potentially...

I've noticed data inconsistencies like this as well. I've used float in my filtering in the past and saw widely variations among the various free and paid sources.

In the inexpensive, home use category, Western Digital has an extensive line of reliable USB disk drives.

truecrypt.org I use it all the time. It's free and very, very good. As of version 5.0, you can even do whole disk encryption. That was something you used to have to pay for.

To prove to their constituents that they're "doing something" about "it"

I guess I was wondering more along the lines of the balanced budget issue. I'm an engineer, not an economist, but I wonder if any countries really run a balanced budget any more. I finished Grennspan's book recently and his observations about the shift from gold based currency to fiat...

Inquiring minds want to know. I've become so disgusted with my own country that I assume everyone else is the same.

Ouch. Pussies? Trading profitably means taking risks for potential rewards. But doing it long-term involves controlling and reducing risk, not betting the bank on the roulette wheel. Wearing seat belts controls risk. If you want to thumb your nose at "the man" there are hundreds of ways...

Helmet and seatbelt laws thwart the beneficial effects of natural selection. :cool:

LOL 1) Less profligate gubment spendin' I was gonna list more, but that's the only one that matters.

The original question was "do you wear seat belts", not "do you agree with laws mandating seat belt use". I wear them and can't understand the mentality of not wearing them. BUT, I totally disagree with laws mandating that the driver wear them. I also disagree with mandatory motorcycle...

Just buy puts! These puppies have highly liquid options.

Hey, wait! That "pond scum" is algae and can be turned into a bio-fuel that will save us all!

I grew up wearing seat belts religiously. Heck, we even had a plastic Jesus on the steel dashboard. It's like breathing. My seat belt is just on and I don't give it a second thought.

That's appalling. It smacks of a centrally planned economy.

"Options as a Strategic Investment" by Lawrence G. McMillan Thick enough to stun an ox, but it's all in there.
