http://www.apple.com/magicmouse/ Wow Gonna get it When it comes. Program it for all kinds of Gestures. Trade Pit style Macs. best trading platform.
1) Any mouse , trackball, tablet can easily be programmed to respond to gestures. Dont need an overpriced Crapple product for that. 2) No one trades using a Mac. 3) You want a gesture to determine whether to but or sell? Ever sneeze?
#2 is a totally baseless statement. I trade using a Mac running stuff either in Windows via VMWare (ie NT) or natively through TOS Desktop. 90% of my time I am not in the Windows element at all, if you must know. Works just fine for me and I wouldn't have it any other way.
Wrong rick. All that means is that stock has classified you as "no one." So you know your place, right? Note to stock: perhaps "no sane person" would be more appropriate? Or "no real trader."
I meant to say I've been trading on a Mac for 2 years and have used a Mac in my personal life for over 12 years. That said, I do not use an Apple Mouse so the negative comments about that particular device may indeed be accurate. I've not seen/used it yet so I can't comment on it. - No One.
1) If you had taken a few seconds or maybe minutes to follow the link and read what the Magic Mouse is about, you would have seen that this is not just a normal mouse which is "programmed to respond to gestures". Instead, it is a mouse with kind of a touchpad on the upper side. 2) I do, as well as others. I also own a windows machine. However, I clearly prefer OS X for anything mission-critical - like trading. 3) Applies to a normal mouse, touchpad or keyboard as well.
All my trades are executed on a Mac charting and analysis is done on Windows and Linux. I am not aware of any issues that would affect execution of trades on a Mac.
