Can anyone recommend a broker that provides the most appropriate server time for the 10.4 system as well as VPS services? When I'm away from my desk I need to hibernate my machine and pack it away which means any EA I try and run goes dormant rendering it useless.

Are there any free VPS offerings out there that anyone knows of depending on account size?

I used a VPS for a couple of years, then concluded it was just a waste of money, for me. (almost $500/yr.) They were really stingy with the memory and charged extra for enough RAM for Empty4 to work.

For me, the main benefit having a VPS was to keep Empty4 running if there was a power outage. I got around that by buying a $75 UPS. I also have the Empty4 app for my Droid phone, so can trade from there if need be.

I am moving toward a two computer setup. I intend to use my laptop, with an extra screen, for trades and my P.C., with two screens for all the demo stuff, email, etc. Still working on this config.

I have a hard time recommending any broker/criminal - I have had a small account (I can trade pennys) there for many years and it so happens that Bob is using them - so they are convenient for me. I don't know the details of their VPS offering - I just saw they had it available. Another thing is that they are pretty big so the money should be fairly safe (famous last words, knock on wood and all that stuff).

cj, The high and low watermark show the swings on your position. Directly underneath is the total. The number on the right is the average. Cool thing is it even shows the time it got there. I'm not sure if the totals reset everyday. It felt like they did once when I was observing. But it wasn't something I really cared about so didn't look at the code or test empirically.

Up until now I have been using the RSI version but I see in the latest pics that NB is using the Stoch and it looks much clearer. Can someone direct be to where I can get the set up to use the Stoch.

Thanks,
