Illiquid, What happened to your blog? You are not updating it. I was looking forward to reading it every day...
What did you find to speed things up? I got spoiled at my last home; I had Comcast and they gave me 5.3 MBPS for about $40 a month. Now I have Road Runner from Time Warner and it seems to crawl at about 1.2. It's also not nearly as reliable. They have a premium package advertised at 6.0 so I think I will upgrade and probably get DSL for backup. Cheers, TRADERguy
Yeah I was hoping to try to put at least one post per day, but went away for the better part of this week and will need to catch up some. Glad (and quite surprised) to see at I've got an audience, if only of one hehe. Thanks man, this will motivate me to keep posting for at least a few more weeks
I used TCP Optimizer from http://www.speedguide.net/downloads.php I have Comcast now (it used to be @home when I first got cable) and they reecntly upgraded to 3MB/s. I didn't know they offered ~5MB!
I really enjoy reading your blog. It's amazing that what you write is like 95% similar to what's going on in my head. I think we have been exposed to very similar trading experience! Why don't you post your blog here too or start your own thread. I definitely want to discuss what you're writing. Plus you'll get more audience...
There is no perfect system. The system is only a guide for the seemingly endless fluctuations in the chart. It is like a guardrail protecting you from falling down the stairs. Patiently wait for your entry triggers and risk small. When thereâs a weak pullback and your initial position is now ârisk-freeâ protected by your stop order, risk more. Your total risk should be small enough so that you have normal heartbeat and dry palms!
Cool man, we can just use this thread I guess: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=39612 Don't want to clutter this thread up anymore than necessary, you have a good thing going here
