======== What Traders Need in a Computer System

How do you know what is a good buy and what is a lousy system with a low price? A computer for traders is not the same as a computer for gamers, and much less expensive.

Traders don't need a souped up sound system, but do need an excellent video card (we'll tell you which is best), a great monitor (17" minimum), plenty of memory (why 64k will not cut it), and a fast processor (500MHz - why the latest are not necessarily the greatest).

Read our quick lesson in computer specs for the trader.

You'll quickly gain the knowledge to buy your next computer with confidence and ease.


========== Mentor Update - Using Active Averages

A vital component of our price action model is that of activated averages. This Mentor Update goes into detail on how to interpret active averages and utilize them in your own trading http://www.daytradersbulletin.com/mentor/mentor110999.pdf

============ The Chairman, Alan Greenspan Speaks

We are just before establishing a record for the longest running expansion in history. Are we in an equities speculative bubble that will soon burst or have the rules changed?

Alan Greenspan, Chairman of the Federal Reserve, addressed the Economic Club of New York on January 13, 2000 and addressed this issue is his speech on Technology and the Economy.

This is a very cogent and illuminating speech that helped clarify some of the issues that the Fed weighs in considering rate hikes and other issues it faces. Check this very readable and illuminating speech out at 2000 Speeches of Federal Reserve Board Members

========== Software Spotlight - ListPics

Traders end up with a lot of graphic files. Trouble is, if you double-click a file to read it, it will open, all by itself in either a browser window, or a graphics editing program (if you have one installed). Either way, it is time consuming to review and/or print your graphics one by one.

Here is a better way: Solway's Shareware Page offers a great freeware utility called ListPics Run ListPics and you simply tell it in which directory you'd like an html file created, then click "Create HTML List File."

Next, click "View" and the file displays all the graphics found in that directory. It does not get any easier than this.

Visit our Software Utilities for Traders page for details on other software and utilities we find helpful for trading and investing.
