    esignal support 64 bit OS XP Pro?

    I had Vista 64 with NinjaTrader and Esignal. It worked (mostly) but a few ninja bugs came up and 64 bit isn't officially supported at the moment by Ninja. Not sure if you'd have the same issues with 64 XP or not, but Ninja doesn't recommend 64 bit at the moment. I went back to 32 XP pro.

    Yes I'm a newbie. And yes I'd like to make a lot of money.

    Everyone needs to find their own way, I'm not there yet but I've realized the only way I'll get there is by automated trading. Now that I've switched to a completely automated system, I think I'm finally headed in the proper direction. My advice would be to get a good sw package, spend a ton...

    Automated Trading

    Not 100% sure on that. Fortunately I haven't run into that issue yet. With ninja you can setup multiple datafeeds with failover. I run esignal with my broker's datafeed as a backup. Not an ideal setup doing it remotely but hopefully I'll be trading full-time before too long. The...

    Automated Trading

    I run ninjatrader on my home pc over a fast dsl line and remote desktop into it while I'm at work to monitor it. It is a fairly simple system that trades ym and generates 1-4 trades per day. Not ideal but with my system stops and targets get entered with my entries so even if I completely...

    windows vista ... yes or no

    I have a quad core dell running vista ultimate 64 with 4 gigs of ram. Run esignal, ninjatrader, mbtrading, etc. with 2 monitors. Runs great, really no issues at all. Vista definitely takes a little getting used to but it has been rock solid for me.

    Generationally challenged, looking to program

    It really depends on what you are trying to accomplish. A lot of the tools out there allow you do build trading systems without programming, but then you can go into the code the tools create and look at it, modify it etc. Ninjatrander and Wealth-lab are 2 examples but there are lots more...

    Paper Trading software

    NinjaTrader's simulated fills seem very accurate to me and you can use it with a variety of brokers if you decide to use it live. It's free for paper/simulated trading.

    Another newby

    It all depends on how many of those trades where "day-trades". You could easily do 30+ swing trades a month and not have any issues with the PDT rule.

    dsl speed needed.

    Depends a lot on what stocks/futures you are watching and how active they are. Only way to know for sure is to monitor your bandwidth. Do a google search on "bandwidth monitor" and there are a bunch of free ones. Then watch it during the busiest times of the day and see if you are anywhere...
