<I>There is one other solution, after looking around for a while I found http://www.nexland.com/. Their ISBPro800 router allows you to hook up two broadband connections and a modem or ISDN backup. I use it with ATT cable modem and earthlink DSL and it works great. The beauty of it is that...

<i>Kensmith, is it possible to run both nic cards at the same time?</i> Yes. But if the I lose connection it does not automatically go to other connection. So I go to Settings, Network and Dial up connections and disable local area connection1 and enable local area connection2. Or other way...

I have win2000 with two nic cards. One with broadband and the other high speed cable. Being in UK I lose my USA connections a couple of times each day. It takes about 30 secs to switch from one to another and log back on to software. Its must to have backup these days. I also have backup PCs...

Tradervic Doesn’t matter if general market is up or down there is always something to trade. Hard work is finding it. Start part time with IB putting the least you can in. That way you will not burn through your money too quickly. Trade small amounts. I’ve been trading USA markets for...

I use cybertrader pro but havn't had this problem. Similar amount of charts & others, plus 6 level II boxes. I'm using win2000 on 900mhz with 512mb of ram. Presume you run check disk and defrag on regular basis. About every six months system gets glitchy so I format hard drive and reinstall...

I notice at Echo that they have four screens. At present I use a Matrox dual head graphics card to run two 19" screens. Could you tell me what I need to run four 19" screens so I can spread my software over all four. I'm getting a bit short on space. Thanks Ken

Sasha <i>Also, what are your general comments on Cyber? Would you recommend anyone else. I am having trouble finding others with comparable software and commission structure (I tend to rely on 2 minute window to execute about 2,000-3,000 shares on average). I know people have recommended IB...

QQQ, DIA, SPY I have traded QQQs but find that I can only trade about four one hour slots maybe one day every other week. Main reason being highly focused soon tires me out and I just can’t get in sync with the market if I try to trade them every day. I mainly use ISLD by picking off...

Hi I use cybertrader pro from UK. My connections are ADSL with high speed cable broadband as backup. I lose connections about two or three times a day. It usually reconnects, if not I dump ADSL for cable, which takes about 45 seconds to have software running again. Over the past five days...

jefftrader How many trades a day? I use www.cybertrader.com pro version and if you do 500+ tickets a month the price is down to $9.99 a ticket with no ECN charges on ISLD and a couple of other ECNs. Ken

Partial Fills & Specialists Over the past few weeks I’ve found that I have to be more aware of partial fills (PFs) not only in extended hours but also during the official day. Sometimes I open/close positions by putting a bid/ask directly in level II, waiting for the price to come to me...

Niner Although I trade usa markets from uk I have both broadband ADSL and a cable modem as backup. I also have a motorised satellite dish, which I could use but the problem being is the up link is through the phone line so I didn’t bother. Could you give me the url on the satellite...

<I>I don't belive in stops. When the reason for the trade disappears, so will my position.....</I> This statement is contradictory in the sense that a stop is actually being used when the reason for the trade disappears. When I open a position, with the information I have at that time, if...

Turok <I>I traded amat exclusively for 3 months mid year. Made over 3500 trades in that amount of time keying off the futures. Was making 10 grand a month on lots of 500 shares Finally decided I had graduated to "faster" stocks and moved on to a basket of about 10 additional stocks. Haven't...

dlincke Thanks for your reply. I've never been a soes fan. The tier limit and times you can trade put me off. I mainly use ISLD or INCA if I have to.Sometimes REDI. SuperSoes is a whole new ball game. I will see if I can try some plays on monday using outside prices when a share is...

I'm always interested in how larger traders play a share so that I can sometimes move inbetween and make a few dollars. Here's an example. SNPS Played SNPS 23 August. INCA pushed it down with others in pre market to about $43, and then rode it up until lunchtime to around $49. Fascinating...

Turok I’ve grasped your question. What I did not realise is that SuperSoes limit order maybe limit or better. If I’m wrong please let me know? This could be an advantage when I want to quickly close or open a position The scenario that you mentioned I never seem to end up in and I trade...

Zed <i>Now that you have used supersoes, what is your opinion? I have found executions much better but since implementation level2 is virtually usless. Just a tool now for the market markers to manipulated us.</i> From level II I mainy use ISLD, if its not available any other ECN. Last...

Hi I did the post below about a month ago on another board which may be of help. When there is no ECN I use SS and find their fills take 1 second, which is far better than it used to be. Here's the cut& paste. SuperSoes (SS) and SelectNet(SN) SS is intended to replace SOES and SN rules...
