Thanks for your quick answers everyone. Much appreciated. I trade prop, so sounds like its all good. But appreciate all the info in this thread, will continue to check it out.

Hate politics. Hate reading about this stuff. Hate conflama. Can someone just bottom line this for me? This tax is gaining momentum? What is the timeline? What is the earliest I could be out of work? Thanks in advance.

The NYSE rebate that went into effect in March. -- NYSE rebate of $0.0010 per share for adding liquidity in displayed and non-displayed orders Have been using the ARDOX route to get that rebate. Any sterling users out there? What route do you use? ARDOX is down AGAIN right now...

So? I was making a ton more money a few years ago too. The last thing I need right now is my profit going to the freakn worthless SEC.

Damn! What is that, 1 million shares a day? And you are paying commission with that volume? Hell, they should be paying you.

Traded the same amount of shares today, pretty much the same stocks and my SEC fees were +41.14 from yesterday. So basically, I am now making ~800 LESS a month. Just absurd. Freakn absurd.

Found it. So basically they raised the SEC fee 500% ??? Am I reading this right? <i><b> Washington, D.C., March 4, 2009 — Effective on April 1, 2009, or 30 days after the date of enactment of the Commission's regular appropriation for FY 2009, whichever is later, the Section 31 fee rate...

or are my sheets screwed up? Tried to find their rate schedule and came up empty to any changes made for today. But my SEC fees sky rocketed and did not trade more expensive stocks than usual today. Anyone better at finding stuff??? And when can we go after the REAL crooks...

Sterling is beyond a joke lately and I have no confidence its going to get better. So, how has lightspeed been holding up? Or do I need to go back to Assent and get back on Anvil?

Thanks everyone for your help. Much appreciated.

hah, thanks wareco. That would have been a mistake. swing- so you are saying I should ditch the 2GB I already have and make sure they are all the same? Or will it work just adding 1GB to the DIMM 4? Thanks you guys. Great help and so fast.

Cool. thanks. Now do I just throw it into the empty dimm4? Or does it matter?

Dimension E510. I found the 533mhz that is compatable. Just didn't know if the 667mhz would help, hurt or not matter. And then whether or not I need to switch the order of the memory.

So I am a complete grade A moron when it comes to computers. Hopefully someone will indulge my ignorance. Don't know if any of this matters. Have a Dell with Intel P4 3.00 w/ 800 mhz FSB. Installed 2 GB RAM. Memory Speed = 533 mhz. Dual Asymmetric DDR2 SDRAM Dimm 1 512mb...

ummm- b/c there was garbage price action all over the place. I am not scalping with crossed ECN's a point wide.

Scalper, you might be with a firm that has their own quote server. I wouldn't complain if I hadn't spoken to multiple traders with the same issue. I have a solid connection and 4 gigs of RAM. Slowest trace route is 28 ms. Its better now, 45 mins into the day. Great action I was...

This is an absolute joke. Its been horrible for two weeks, but this morning was absolutely untradeable. Crossed, stuck, slow ECNs on every level. Slow NYSE quote. Haven't a clue WTF is going on. Standard lame excuses Sterling has been giving the last 8 years. This is the worst...

FTL- you have to be kidding.

Thanks again to both of you for taking the time. Much appreciated.

OK- so it looks like I definitely have problems. I have 100% packet loss on the first line. So the fix is to fool comcast? I am a total idiot when it comes to this stuff......is there an easy way to go about this? Or should I call comcast?
