Camtasia to record trading

Quote from ScapGF:

Why not just download Camtasia and find out for yourself? They offer a free demo for 30 days with no restrictions to the software.

Record 1min sessions with various settings to see how much memory/min you are taking up. While running the software you can even press CTRL-ALT-DEL to monitor how much memory the software is using.

So there you have it. A complete answer and it will only take maybe an hour of your time if not considerably less.

I just have to figure out how to get it onto my trading comp, if I don't buy it. My trading computer isn't connected to the internet but to a direct line to the exchange.

There is no way to bring your comp to an internet connection while you are not trading so you can DL the software? From download to install to running the program you've got about 10minutes. Pretty easy.
 
I have ab a/c with IB. and for charts i use QT. I want to record prices and play the charts at weekends for educational purposes. How do I go about this with some possibly free software. I will only record YM and ES prices. Please help.thanks
 
I know this is an older thread, but I do use recording software from time to time to analyze a particular trading day. Camtasia is one option, but you can get creative and use other tools as well.

GoToMeeting: You can set up a meeting and record your screen minus audio. File sizes vary, so you'd have to experiment a bit with settings and what works for you.

WebEx: Same as above. If you get a license, you can get recordings stored on WebEx's servers.. but there are file limitations.

Also, there's a wikipedia article on screencasting software programs that you can choose from. I highlighted the ones above based on my own experience with them.
