Needing to upgrade my computer. Wondering if anyone has an opinion about the effiency of running one quad graphics card vs: running two dual graphics cards. Cost is not the issue. I currently run 5 monitors and will use one of the above configurations in addtion to the graphics card that...

The symbol itself was not the confusing part. What I was getting at was that there was two duplicate strike prices. 50 50 55 55 etc... each with dif symbol and premium. Finally found out that it may be do to a stock split. dunno for sure. I am to much a rookie to options...

New to options, I am wondering why a stock's options strikes will all the sudden have two of the same strike? IE; Calls <b>Strike</b> Puts SIIEI 563 20 0.50 6.20 6.00 6.20 <b>45</b> 0.25 0.35 0.30 -0.10 20 2,388 SIIQI...

Hah!... Very funny. WAFRI

Check out www.ninjatrader.com It's a very intuitive trade management program (api) front end for TWS. With one click, I enter a trade with 3 separate targets, and an auto trailing stop in place. You can customize your own trade management strategy very easily. Very useful tool for my trading...

I run redundant systems.. Esignal is my main platform, TS for redundant backup if Esignal fails. Two totally different data feeds on two totally different computers. Only the screens (5) are shared... with two clicks on my keyboard, the other system is displayed on the screens.

I agree completely. :(

Perhaps you should consider a redundant charting program for backup. This may help you minimize your losses in the future... Backup computers, powersources, etc. are also very useful on the rare occasions that they are needed. Good Luck!

Up and running... all normal now... thanks... Down time on esignal is much less than other charting programs I have used. I can live with 1 or 2 times a year... vs: 3-4 times a month (TS). Cheers

This year... April has been my best month. You?

well if earnings season disappoints which is on jan, apr, july and oct then those are the months that are going to be difficult going long in the market and especially dangerous.... Then hopefully, you have a strategy that tells you to go short.. thus... not so difficult a month... :)...

I appreciate your input, however I was hoping for more thoughts on the experience you all have and how your experience has been during poor performing months. Poor performance for a day.. means nada. We all have those. I have a few dif strategies for slow periods and some for strong...

There is a lot of talk about the summer months being tough to trade. It seems it would depend on your style of trading. However, I am curious to know what other experienced traders consider to be the worst month of the year to trade the emini's. Please vote, then leave a comment re: number of...

I tried several of the top name chairs ... they all eventually made my butt or back tired and/or fell apart. The very best chair... most comfortable for longterm sitting.... imho... is the Scansit 330... here: http://www.hjellegjerde.com/product.aspx?brandid=4&prodid=176&awmmid=2 I have...

AH! Found it myself. Here is the link for those interested. http://www.interactivebrokers.com/cgi-pub/exchange_display_web.pl?einfo=usCME2&file=GLOBEX.html

Businessman Do you have a link from IB that confirms this info.. re: trailing stops not being native to globex? ... and... what about a scenario where a person has 3 targets in place (lmt orders) and the stoploss order is hit and filled... do the 3 targets result in 3 cancelled orders or...

steeldust ...cause i sure don't abuse the globex system with constant submit/cancel. Like you, I do not abuse the globex system but if you, like many of us, use trailing stops that are native to IB, then a $1 mod fee would charged every single time the trailing stop was adjusted. on a good...

Yes I have already done this in the task manager and identified eSignal to be the culprit.... and it only happens while I have my custom index charts running. When all other standard symbol charts are running... there is no problem what so ever. Thanks again.

FuturesTrader71 Thanks very much for your suggestion.. I will look into this option. :)
