    Can understand you very well, nothing is more nerve-racking than having to deal with technicals while trying to trade.

    Maybe you will consider a switch for multiple connections, there are good solutions available that will do autoswitching when connections get lost...

    all the best,

  5. you sound like an addict, man.

    Why don't you have a backup connection? I would not think about engaging in your type of trading without having several types of connections (T1 and residential cable for ex.)

    What feeds are you using?

    Is anyone using sat based feeds & can comment? Would be good to have a backup with totally different connections...

    For myself I have found that it takes a lot of stress out, if you know the technicals are smooth & redundant...

    best to you all,
    cosmic

  10. Who leads the way - Dax or Eurostoxx50? Today Eurostoxx. Eurostoxx did made a low, while Dax did'nt. But Dax had to follow the Eurostoxx down. I suppose the signals from Eurostoxx are better because of the bigger volume?
