yah, going to have to adjust instead of hoping they pull their head out of their ass. Just so much noise, so many damn ridiculous prints...for me its a total cluster **** right now. Went from averaging 5 figure months to being up 2,600 for the YEAR. Brutal. But thanks for dashing my...

is there ANY shot in hell this could happen? I can't believe how horrible this system is. If I wanted to trade NASDAQ- would trade the exchange that does it right. This Hybrid is just absolutely horrible. I am assuming going to hear that its here to stay and get used to it. But...

Guess it depends on the firm. The firm I trade with right now is passing that extra .00025/share on to traders. I am on pace for at least 36 million shares this year, that is an extra $9,000. So from what you are saying is that some firms are eating this additional cost and not passing it...

Is it significant? Well, as far as I can figure out its going to cost me at least $9,000 this year. 36,000,000 * .00025 = 9,000 So yes, to me that is significant. Unless I am reading this wrong.....which would not surprise me since I am a mental midget that just bangs away on stocks. Can...

Apologies if this has already been discussed. Couldn't find anything. Regarding the new NYSE pricing for equities...

Thanks for the help guys. Yah, its just the resolution on the LCD. I just hooked up to my Sony SXRD 1920 x 1080 and it looks pretty decent. But am going to stick with the dual monitors for now.

Yah i did that. Have it on 1280x1024 and that is where everything is grainy and huge. Then tried 1360x768 and it was better, but then everything was sized all wrong. So I guess 37" just weren't meant to be used for computer screens? or I am just an idiot and can't figure it out. Thanks...

Hey guys. I am idiot when it comes to computers. Been thinking about switching out my dual 19" with my bedroom 37" LCD. I hooked it up just now and it looks like crap. Everything is HUGE and grainy. The video card I have is whatever comes standard with the Dell E510. Radeon X300 SE??? If...

So VERY VERY TRUE. I don't understand you people that want to get rid of the specialist. The specialist is VERY MUCH my FRIEND. I really don't get it.

Thanks for being a smart ass Albert. Yes, I have been trading for 4 years and in my first year I made close to six figures and have crushed that the last three. Its been fairly slow year for me so far, but then again I work about 8 hours a week...so have fun in your day job. Was just...

yah, percent of return is not a good question. I keep 10K in my account and swipe profits twice a month. YTD I am up just over 40K. So I answered over 100%- but not really the best indicator.

I know there are better BBS to ask this. But anyone know?

Sorry for the question guys. But I never really pay attention to when the deals are for electronics/computers. Would it be stupid to buy a Dell set up right now? Do they come down in price after the Holidays? Thanks in advance.

Everyone has their MBA now. It doesn't carry nearly the same weight it did just 10 years ago. I would only bother getting one now if it were from a top 20 program. That is if you expect it to pay off in the real world. Otherwise, don't waste your time.

Thanks guys. Gnome, I swear I tried to figure this out before I asked. But alas, I am a dumbass. The options for video cards they give me are: 128MB PCI Express™ x16 (DVI/VGA/TV-out) ATI Radeon™ X300 SE 256MB PCI Express™ x16 (DVI/VGA/TV-out) ATI Radeon X600 SE...

So any of the 9100's? Cool. Now what do I need to do to run 2-4 flat panel monitors? Can I add it through Dell? Or do I go to Best Buy or something? Sorry...Like I said, really don't know anything about computers. Thanks.

Hey guys. Got too lazy searching all the other threads. I am a computer moron. Turn it on and go kinda guy. Moving from the office to remote and was wondering if some of you computer geniuses can help me out. Want to cap the spending at around 1500 or less if I can get away with it...

Was wondering if any firms like Echo, Assent, Genesis etc. had issues with NYSE this morning? No prints, screwed up OB.

FWIW, orientals are rugs. Asians are people. Not that I care, just amazing that people still say orientals without knowing any better.

Exactly Mecro. There was a ton of opportunity in both ESI and DNA yesterday. We have quite a few traders in our office over 100K for the year....I am so tired of reading about traders whining. Whine and Whine some more. There are plenty of people making money right now....if you can't do it, you...
