"price improvement" ha! http://www.marketwatch.com/news/yhoo/story.asp?guid=%7B52D38B93-925C-4E7D-B1DC-AA37755DF25B%7D&siteid=myyahoo&dist=myyahoo

For those using the Parhelia, are you using analog on all 3 heads, or DVI for the center and analog for the left & right? Read the specs on it and I like the Parhelia. But I'm wondering if going with two video cards would be better and have DVI for all 3 LCD monitors? I use it for trading...

I currently have dual monitor setup and want to add a third one. Any video card recommendations that support three monitors, or should I Just get a second video card? Never installed two video cards in one box I don't know if there are any potential problems. Thanks, Shawn

This is no-lose proposition for Brandon. If he had to setup a fund, if the fund loses, say $500k first 6 months then makes $500k final 6 months he is even on the year. But if can get 12 people to sign up, he makes % off the winners but doesn't have any risk with the losers. Consider the...

How about: "I burned a copy of this CD already so that's why I'm selling it. I need the $ to rebuild my trading account b/c the methods, well, nevermind!"

Same chart as in the original message: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=298891 Notice the failed H&S short signal about 12:12? Just wanted to point out that H&S patterns are much more difficult to trade at the hard right edge. If you have a mechanical way to...

What about the divergence sell signals at 13:43 and 14:07-08? Seems so easy in hindsight but divergence is much more difficult in real-time (a comment, not a criticism). BTW, if you are paper trading, have you considered the potential of losing 1 tick spread each way? Slippage makes paper...

What about the failed head & shoulders with trendline break at about 12:12? (Look at the two red candles below the "ed" in "Uptrended"). You had MACD divergence as well as a few other oscillators. I was never a fan of H&S patterns b/c they always look good in hindsight.

igsi, Your big mistake here, and i know you mention "IT" as your occupation in your profile, is that the vast majority of home desktop users use Windows, which is not a hardened OS by any means. There are many Windows vulnerabilities not yet discovered. The use of an IDS helps. It has...

Harry, please indicate in which paragraph in the URL you gave that GRC even mentions BlackIce with regards to that DoS attack on grc.com? I can't find any reference to BlackIce in that URL. Also, there is no client solution to defend against a DoS attack. There are also very few network...

I rather enjoyed the bank robber holding a gun analogy, as well as the guard dog analogy in a previous post. Makes perfect sense to me. I don't know about you, but if I had an IIS server, I consider:    GET /[unicode...backtick...]/winnt/system32/cmd.exe? a gun pointed directly at my...

prediction vs. reaction vs. opinion ..... sounds all like semantics to me? I thin time horizon makes a difference too in some of the interpretations.

igsi, You are wrong on this issue. I am a sysadmin and while I try to patch my systems whenever possible, it is a completely unrealistic expectation. First of all, while I try to stay on top of all patch notifications, the high # of warnings and alerts for the numerous systems I administer...

Some of the MurreyMath probabilities I noticed resemble random walk probabilities (square of distance from fixed point) which is rather interesting. But I have difficulty believing that the same security/futures trading at the same price have the same price movement probabilities . So my...

I tell my friends I am a part-time day trader and they all want stock tips from me too. I tell them I'm in and out in only a few minutes so I'm not qualified to give them long-term investment advice, and they want to set up their own direct access accounts and have me IM them when I make a...

It's a free country (at least in the US, well, mostly free) and if us newbie part-time day traders want to lose our money becuase we have less than $25k then let us! Call it a stupid tax or whatever you want, but I reserve the right to day trade my undercapitalized account if I want. I've got...

day traders help feed the capitlistic engine that sustains democracy. Greed + risk + opportunity = economic Darwinism.

Are you open to other graphics cards other than Matrox? Also, are you looking to do any graphics intensive work other than driving multiple monitors for trading? Like Photoshop or games?

I tried the CANSLIM approach when I started trading. I personally believe CANSLIM's succses with a product of the great bull market, as well as the powerful marketing engine behind it. It's a decent approach if you are looking for longterm position trading method. I've lost money in past 2...

inandlong, If you care for an outside opinion, I consider myself a day trading newbie and longtime lurker here. dottom's post have been very helpful to me. I almost purchase the Rapid Fire Swing Trading ebook myself but on a previous post on this topic dottom said to lookup NR4/IB and I did...
