    High Frequency Trading

    Hehe, I don't know almost anything about it though, just what I here on the automated trading forums. Systematic.... a high frequency system would probably be systematic in order to bring consistent results. If it is systematic, in all likelyhood, it could be automated, so I guess that is...

    Buying an IPO

    I don't know if you saw the IPO of BIDU, but that is personally the only IPO I really ever saw on my charts and watched, it was amazing. I don't think I'll ever be attempting to trade any IPO's though :)

    High Frequency Trading

    I dunno.... I'd assume it would be called scalping a lot of stocks quickly. Perhaps you had meant scalping. High Frequency Trading I have only seen on this board with consideration to Automated trading. I think trying to pull of something on an automated system, except doing it yourself...

    Maxtor Drive Died

    Add me to the list that has had a Maxtor drive die. Funny thing is, I have yet to experience any other drive, even ones from 5, almost 6 years ago die, but the ones that have died were the Maxtor ones. Interesting stuff.

    Surprise Dell buys Alienware, high end box makers

    This is very interesting, I had been guessing Alienware lost it's touch and hasn't been making any noise lately with people being able to get computers so much cheaper and still customize. I wonder if Dell did it to eliminate some competition, or to perhaps just get some ideas, or both...

    DTN Releases Brand New ProphetX Active Trader workstation

    Thanks for the reply, makes sense now. As for the Volume Histogram, it would look something like this: <img src="http://www.sr-analyst.com/PriceVolumeHelp/VPC5.gif"> Except, the one i'm talking about is actually plotted on top of the price, but even then, something like this in ProphetX...

    DTN Releases Brand New ProphetX Active Trader workstation

    Do you have an estimate on a price to get everything so that I can view charts and quotes of NYSE, NASDAQ, and AMEX stocks? I'm interested in trying it out, if it is more reliable, and I like the charts, eSignal might finally have some competition on hand, and might lose a customer.

    trade statistics logger/plotter?

    Been looking for the same thing here too. Hope someone designs something like this one day, I'm sure you'd make some money off it $$$ (Hopefully motivates some of the hardcore programmers to do something). Question is, how would it be possible to compensate for all the different types of...

    Coughing up the $25k requirement for Pattern Day Trading

    Genesis said they would offer me 10 to 1 margin, but I am not sure if I was a special case or not but I went with a prop firm using the Laser platform instead for 30 to 1 margin, but e-mail Genesis and ask, they have a really nice support team.

    Coughing up the $25k requirement for Pattern Day Trading

    I understand now, just wondering what was going on. I'm at another firm now getting ready to trade stocks, pretty much my only chance. "....the opportunity to take part in strategies that are more capital intensive, and have a much better "risk reward" than many of the simple scalping or...
