Thanks to all of you who responded.
Apparently, QT is rife with problems.....probably some I haven't even been noticing. As I said, my problem is simply QT crashing 1-3 times a day. Since I only have one monitor going, I have to reboot....losing time and data in the process.
Last week it happened on five different occasions as I was about to enter scalp trades, each of which would have been succesful.
The one trade I got off stopped out at a $1200 loss....lol!!!
It left me feeling downright paranoid......I mean it crashed each time as my finger was on the send button.....almost spooky ....
