    Help with Memory Upgrade

    Update: Received and installed the new RAM The difference is incredible. Dell sure screwed up selling that machine with only 512K, or at least I screwed up buying it. Highly recommend more RAM for anyone running Vista. Now sitting with 512K module. I have an older machine running XP...

    Help with Memory Upgrade

    I have ordered two 1 Gig Ram Modules. My computer has 4 slots available. Does it make any difference what order the modules are placed? Should I replace the 512MB with one of the 1Gig modules or just install the new modules behind the original?

    Tired of Trading From Home?

    I found that a skype conference call did the trick. Got to carry on a conversation with like minded traders and still had the option of taking time away from the other guys for part of the day.

    "The only way to trade with Fibonaccis" journal

    In theory this doesn’t look like too bad a strategy; If you have coin toss results you should come out ahead. I did find that when you factor in commission and slippage that the spread between the high and the low has to be quite wide. Allowing for $5 per round trip and 1 tick...
