Tradestation sucks - it just can't keep up with high volume

I used to think TS sucked too... however... I bought a new computer and it solved everything. I do not experience lagging and freezing anymore. TS kicks ass now. I have a Dual Core 3.16 ghz intel w/ 4GB of ram. Try a new comp perhaps?

Initial pullback and then a higher close. Perhaps much higher

Well it started well , but no legs.

every spike forms a MA pattern or H&S patterns..

once it broke 968 second time i knew it was forming MA pattern but shorted only once @ 967 and got out 960..

man i suck.. too afraid as many H&S pattern were busted when i went short..

:mad:

Thanks. I have dual core 2.4ghz amd with 2Gb ram. I am going to shut down some of the desktops (4 normally) when I expect or encounter high volume. If that doesn't work, I'll upgrade processor and memory.

I wouldn't rush out to quick to spend money on that type of upgrade. If your system is having trouble keeping up than look into your Internet connection. If your feed is weak than there's your problem. Try looking at that first. Your Anti-virus would also bog down your processor speed. trend micro/kaspersky are 2 that I know of that are not processor hungry.

Thanks. I have 6meg download with comcast and it's stable and I use trend micro anitvir. I went thru my workspaces and made sure I have only price and volume (may get rid of volume) and if I experience any lag I will shut down desktops so I only have trading matrix and a chart. I haven't found indicators to be any help over price.

Wow what a drop!! God bless tight stops because I was on the wrong side (went long on the rise but didn't notice the double top).

So what does that drop say? Hedges massively selling? (I thought that was basically over...). LC I'm all ears

B1S2, what's your bias now? Are you looking for long? Since when? (yesterday's mad rise?)

And where's Saliva? I haven't heard from him since yesterday. He usually has great charts...

And here I thought the sneaky-crazy vertical rides ran away...
