Tokyo Builds the World’s Largest High Definition Screen

In Fuchu city Japan a new monster has sprung up, but it isn’t Godzilla. It’s their 8,066 square foot monster at the Tokyo Racecourse. This display takes the cake when it comes

to large displays in the eastern hemisphere, it’s fitting that it popped up at a horseracing track. Of course, it’s fitting that the screen has popped up at the gigantic horse racing track, that is sprawled out over a couple of miles. The screen itself is the longest in the world, and for a short while was the world’s largest high definition screen.

Originally built by Mitsubishi Diamond Vision, this screen outdid the square footage of the LED displays you’ll find in Texas or Miami, or even the monster display at Turner Field in Atlanta. One of the interesting things about the display is the length (which as the time of writing is still the longest display in the world.) It measures a whopping 218 feet long and only 37 feet high. The neat thing about this display is that it allows spectators to view up to 3 races at once. At the time it was constructed it overtook the screen at the Texas Longhorn’s stadium for the largest screen in the world. Of course, since then several others have popped up all over the globe, the largest of which can be found in Charlotte North Carolina at the NASCAR track there. An odd fact about this screen is that it’s actually in 5.89 aspect ration, rendering it virtually useless for many other types of entertainment, but it is 720p resolution, which is superior to what most people still have on their home TV. It uses a technology referred to as Turf Vision to display powerful and high impact images, as fans watch from the stands with excitement.

Horse race fans have been overall very receptive of the screen as it seems to improve their overall experience and allows them to enjoy up to 3 races at once. The Japanese are somewhat fanatical when it comes to horse racing, so it seems only right that they should have one of the world’s largest screens in their backyard. As with most of these jumbo displays it has improved the overall user experience as fans flock to see their favorite horse go round.

Does Godzillatron Live Up to Its Name?

Austin, Texas is known for a lot of thing: food; music; hospitality; an exciting nightlife.

Godzillatron

But more recently an addition to the University of Texas’ Darrell K. Royal- Texas Memorial stadium has been making headlines and raising questions. As if 10’s of thousands of fans packing the stadium each week to see the Texas Longhorns play wasn’t enough, a new scoreboard has been turning heads. Officially it doesn’t have a name, other than the Darrel K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium Scoreboard. But others in town know the screen as Godzillatron or sometimes she’s called Adzillatron.

Godzillatron (as we’ll refer to her for the rest of this article) is one of the largest high definition video screens in the world. It was manufactured by a company call Daktronics in Brookings, South Dakota. They are known for producing many of the world’s largest display screens. All total, Godzillatron is a staggering 55.5 feet tall and 134 feet wide (that 16.9 m tall and 41 m for all of you non-Americans.) Just a few short years ago, not only was a screen this size unlikely, but the resolution would have been nothing to brag about, but thanks to changes in technology trends, this screen can brag 2064 x 848 pixel resolution. Not too shabby for a screen that has the square footage of a small neighborhood of homes. Godzillatron debuted in 2006 after a $150 million dollar overhaul to the stadium, $8 million of which was used for the screen. It has become a staple of the stadium and is the centerpiece during the game. Fans are relying more and more on the screens to interact during live games. Godzillatron replaced the previous 2 scoreboards that took up each end of the stadium (the Steinmark Memorial Scoreboard and JumboTron, which could be found on the north end- a video matrix screen. These screens were removed in 2005, just prior to the arrival of Godzillatron. In place of the scoreboard at the North end of the field, the stadium expanded and added more seats.

Although a scoreboard located in Tokyo Japan eventually surpassed it, Godzillatron was for a short time the largest digital high definition screen in the world and is still the largest screen in college football. There couldn’t be a better place for the huge TV- as they say, everything is bigger in Texas and the Texas Longhorns scoreboard is no exception.

As far as things go for other college stadiums, the 2nd largest high definition screen is located at Nebraska and #3 can be found at Texas A&M. Mississippi has also added a giant screen that measures a grand total of 5,217 square feet. It is 112 feet (34 meters) by 48 feet (15 m). But even Nebraska can’t hold up to Godzillatron, which is a jaw dropping 84 percent larger than the screen at Nebraska. It’s worth noting that the Dallas Cowboys have the largest HDTV in the NFL and second largest in the Western Hemisphere.

A controversy has erupted, however, about the screen’s uses during games, leading to its other nickname: Adzillatron. If it isn’t obvious, the reason is because fans say the stadium abuses it’s space to run intrusive ads, which take away from the game’s fun and light hearted (albeit sometimes intense) atmosphere. In fact, at times more than 50 percent of the screen is used to run advertising, which tends to annoy game patrons. Another issue is that the ads tend to be very loud, so that they can be hard, even if the band is playing. Recently fans have begun shouting at the screen as they are blasted with advertising.

Despite some of the known problems, in particular with the advertising aspects, the screen has been an overall welcomed addition to the stadium. It gives fans real time access to replays, announcements and more. And overall, it’s fair to say that this has been a welcomed addition to the field. It goes without saying that every change has its fans and its naysayers, and Godzillatron is no exception to that rule. Regardless of your opinion, it’s also safe to say that monster HD displays are here to stay in sports arenas!

Just How Big is the New York Yankees New LED Scoreboard?

If you’re a Yankees fan then it’s hard to miss the new LED scoreboard and jumbo LED HDTV located in Center Field at Yankee Stadium.  Part of a $1.3 billion dollar renovation, this scoreboard wins the attention of anyone that dares to step foot inside the

stadium.  Officially the screen is 103 feet wide by 58 feet tall.  It’s resolution is 1080p, probably better than your TV, and it was designed by Mitsubishi Diamond Vision LED displays.

So what does it take to make 103 feet wide by 58 feet tall HDTV screen?  Apparently it takes 8,601,600 lamps that cover a grand total of 5,925 square feet.  And as if that wasn’t enough, this screen can actually put up a total of 4 images all at once- including picture-in-picture capabilities.  It was designed to be the same height as the stadium’s 2nd deck and occupies about ¼ of the total outfield, but was specifically designed this way so that it wouldn’t over shadow the actual game itself.  It is in a prime spot so that spectators can glance over for highlights and replays, but won’t be distracted from the overall game.  It even gives the players that are in the dugout a good view so that there’s no argument with the umpires.  Just kidding.  Actually teams are prohibited from showing “a replay of any play that could incite either team or the fans.”  And of course, the umps have the last word.

Of course, the mega screen is just part of a new tech development that is taking place at the new Yankee Stadium, where a total of 1,400 other video screens will be used as well, including 550 flat Sony Bravias, and then managed on a mini IP-based network designed by Cisco Systems.  This will allow different ads to be shown to different people at any given moment, which include those famous Yankee Stadium baseball themed marriage proposals.

Speaking of which, how do you get your name mentioned on the big screen at Yankee Stadium?  It’s not as hard as you might think.  You just need to call their front office as it turns out.  They offer a few different services.  Just having a name and/or birthday shown or similar will cost you $10.  If you’d like your name to be shown and announced then you’ll have to shell out $100, but either way it’s worth it, right?

Added to the bottom of the screen, the company Daktronics built a pretty awesome scoring system.  It’s a total of 1,280 feet long, and is made of bright and sharp LEDs as well.  It’s equal to the second deck.  It’s made of hundreds of LED cubes and features other teams info, lineups and even a light show in the evening.  It operates in a similar manner to the Times Square JumboTron.

As bezels on LED screens become smaller, the likelihood that we’ll see larger and larger screens increases because the cost continues to go down and the demand for such features is only going up.  Using a multi-screen mega video wall is a great way to give spectators great information during the game, provide additional advertising revenue and they just look cool.    It’s highly likely that you’re going to continue to notice better resolution and bigger size.  At some point in the not-so-distant future it wouldn’t surprise me if the entire back of a baseball stadium becomes one giant LED screen.  Regardless, these displays make for a nice addition to nearly all live sporting events, and as such their popularity will continue to grow.

Times Square – Mega Video Wall Mania?

You’d be hard pressed to find a person that hasn’t seen a picture of Times Square. Originally named because Time owned the familiar building in the center of the area, that

building has been bought and sold half a dozen times over the past 100 years. On the bottom level you’ll normally find a retail shop of some sort, and floors above have housed a variety of things, including a restaurant and various other endeavors. However, the building is essentially storage and advertising space today, with the exception of the Wal-Greens that’s on the bottom floor and open to consumers.

Reportedly though, the buildings owner makes between $100,000 and $250,000 a month from advertising revenue via both digital and traditional signage that’s attached the buildings outside. A few companies have been featured as the JumboTron on the face of the building. Previously it was Sony, but more recently Panasonic has taken that spot, but more on that in a minute. The biggest sign on Broadway (and in Times Square) is the famously blue NASDAQ sign. Walgreens also currently has a sign that has over 12 million LEDs and is 17,000 square feet in size. It was designed by a company called the Gilmore Group and then built by D3 LED. It’s so large because it actually runs up both sides of the building and loops around the front. Officially it weighs over 250,000 pounds.

1990 was a big year for Times Square. It was the year that Sony installed the first JumboTron on the exterior of the building. It hung for over 6 years until their lease was up. A large LED screen manufactured by Panasonic then replaced them. Above the large LED screen a number of well known companies have been featured. Most notably have been NBC and News Corp (parent company of Fox.) It’s worth mention that more recently Kia, Dunkin Donuts, Chevrolet and Toshiba have had signage hanging above the large screen LED. Over the years the mega screen TV has been used for a variety of purposes. Probably the most famous was when David Letterman was fed live into Time Square via the video wall.

Since 2010 Sony is back in it’s thrown above Times Square, replacing Panasonic and they continue to be sponsored by Fox’s News Corp. This screen real estate is considered to be some of the most valuable advertising space in the world. It can be rented by the day, or even the hour for special events and product launches. The fee is over $10,000 an hour though, so you better have your credit card ready.

Digital signage is an increasingly popular medium to reach potential clients and to help brand products. It’s no surprise, but Times Square is just one example of where you might find large digital screens that are used for advertising. These types of mega screens are popping up all over the place. While Times Square is probably the best known some other popular places are casinos, trade shows and even office buildings are popular places as well. Thanks to multiple screen and monitor technology these types of displays are more economical for smaller and mid sized businesses too. The invention of millimeter bezel has played a large roll in this increase among less known companies. Of course it will still cost you, depending on how big of a screen you want to use, but it’s significantly less expensive than it was even 5 years ago. And even more important than price, the quality of the screens has gone up dramatically. You can now have a multi-screen system that has 1080p resolution, higher than what most people use for their TV and even their computer!

The JumboTron in Times Square is highly recognizable because we’ve all seen so many movies and TV shows featuring images of it. But with that said, the technology implemented there has led to many other awesome companies creating similar displays. This seems to be the wave of the future, and with multiple screen displays being organized and used, it should make the future an interesting one.

Skydome (Rogers Stadium) JumboTron – Keeping Up with the Future?

Until the Charlotte Speedway and Dallas Cowboy’s Stadium built their mega screens, the largest screen in the world was found at the (then) Skydom (now referred to as Rogers

Stadium).  It was quite a monster measuring 33 feet high and 110 feet wide.  It still remains one of the largest in North America.  In fact it was redone in 2005 when Rogers Wireless bought both the Toronto Blue Jays and the Skydom arena/stadium.

 

Here’s a little bit of information about Rogers Stadium, where the famous Viewboard is located.  The stadium was originally built in 1985 (finished in 1989) and was known for it’s retractable roof (the first of it’s kind at the time.)  In 20 minutes time the roof can be opened or closed, depending on what the weather is permitting at any given time.  The stadium was made to seat 46,000 fans, and that includes 70 hotel rooms that overlook the field.  When originally built, the JumboTron was the largest in the world and was comprised of hundreds of small CRT units that created a monster display.  The downside to this old style of displays is that they don’t hold up very well, are expensive to run and the image quality leaves something to be desired.  However, in 2005 when Rogers Communications bought the stadium, the new owners revamped many of the stadiums decaying features, including the JumboTron.

 

The new owners of the now called Rogers Centre created what some call a unique Videoboard, one of the largest in the world.  It measures 110 feet wide and 33 feet high.  Rogers Centre is used for wide array of events that include baseball (the Toronto Blue Jays), football and concert events.  The videoboard services all of these events and adds something special to each of them.

 

Megascreens are becoming commonplace at large stadiums and as the technology improves, we’re going to start seeing larger screens, such as the Videoboard, and we’re also going to see them more frequently.  It’s quite amazing how quickly the technology is growing, and don’t expect for it to stop any time soon.  Here’s the thing- multi-screen video walls have become cheaper and here’s how:  because of the micro bezels that are common place with big screens these days, it makes sense for these huge video walls to pop up more and more.  Small bezel and multiple screens means that it’s significantly cheaper to put together extremely high resolution monitors and create a mega screen video wall.  In fact, we’re not just seeing these types of screens at stadiums any more.  We’re seeing them pop up all over the place- at businesses, tradeshows, heck billboards and even the sides of buildings have become home to these jumbo screen video walls.   But the Rogers Centre was doing it before anyone else and quite frankly they did it better for many years.  While they may not be the biggest anymore, their Videoboard is easily one of the top screens in North America and certainly still worth noting.

So You Want to Be a Day Trader?

Prior to day trading, if you wanted to buy a stock, it was quite a complex process. First and foremost you would have to have a broker to order. The order would then be sent to the exchange floor to a specialist that would find a seller, match them with the buyer and actually write a physical ticket. Then confirmation would be sent back to the brokers for both the buyer and seller. Commissions of 1% were always charged to the total amount of the trade, in addition to what you paid for the stock. Then in 1975 things began to change as the SEC made fixed commissions illegal. This is when we started seeing discount brokers for the first time.

Day trading is simply buying and selling of stocks, options or commodities and the ability to have your positions closed by the end of the trading session. Unlike prior to 1975, now days you don’t need to be a financial company or professional investor to be a day trader, anyone can trade stocks as rates are extremely low and the entry point is cheap. Additionally, technology advances have allowed casual workers to start trading from home with nothing more than a multiple monitor computer and an internet connection.
There are several different strategies that day traders use and I’m going to go over a few of them:
Trend trading is the belief that if a stock is rising it will continue to rise, or if it is falling it will continue to fall. The general rule is that you try to enter the trade in the direction of the trend and then exit once the stock breaks this trend.

Contrarian trading is the assumption that prices have been rising or falling quickly and with momentum and therefore the momentum will soon reverse and start going in the opposite direction.
Channel or Range trading is the assumption that because a stock has typically traded within a certain price range or channel that it will continue to do so.
Scalping is sometimes called spread trading and allows the trader to take profits where gaps expand and contract. Technical indicators such as support and resistance level now make this a popular strategy to use.

Tremors or New Event trading is what it sounds like- paying close attention to social signals that might cause a spike or dip in price. This is a very volatile way to trade.
There are of course other strategies that can be used as well buy these seem to be the most popular among modern traders. Of course, having the right trading software and proper equipment, such as a multi-monitor computer, can make all the difference if you are just starting out as a day trader. There are also a number of quality forums and education programs that can help you get your foot in the door as well. Hopefully though, this article will help you understand where to start. If you truly want to be a day trader, then reading and education will make all the difference in your success.

Is Decision Bar a Game Changer or a Rip Off?

You’ve probably setup a multi-monitor computer system and you’re ready to start your day trading career, but, “uh oh” it turns out that you need some expensive software that

will help you analyze the market and make the proper decisions, right? Well, you might not end up spending all that much if you listen to these guys, then you do not need to spend thousands of dollars. They offer their software for under $500, with payment plans available. But is it worth the money and will it do what some of the more well known software will do? In this article we’re going to analyze Decision Bar and try to determine where it performs and where it lacks.

So here’s the Decision Bar claim- they claim that they aren’t a secret system or robot that’s going to help you generate money, but rather they claim they have created a trading tool that has helped other traders be successful when they were struggling with the decision making process. The idea behind Decision Bar is to help educate you and give you the tools to make proper picks. Part of this training process is also live one-on-one support (should you require it.)

Decision Bar was developed by a man named Les Schwartz as high complex (but relatively easy to use) comprehensive trading software that was originally designed for public use. Les has been a day trader since 1988, so he knows a thing or 2 about the financial markets. He’s not just some guru, he actually earns a living from trading.

A decision bar is simply is simply one specific bar on a chart and these bars represent a particular trading opportunity. With DecisionBar, you pair the software with any interval chart (or if you prefer volume charts and Renko charts.) DecisionBar predetermines the timing and direction of trades so you simply have to do risk assessment to determine if it’s a smart trade or not. DecisionBar indicates buys with green arrows and sells with red arrows, making it easy to make decisions.

While this all sounds very nice, it does also sound a bit too good to be true. DecisionBar reminds me of any generic fly-by-night company. While I haven’t tested the software, I can say that their long form sales page is a bit silly and outdated, which makes me wonder- if they can’t afford good copywriters, can they really be that high of quality. I don’t doubt that if you are looking for budget software, DecisionBar may help provide you with some assistance, as they their charts and graphs do what most others do. The problem that I see is that they don’t provide any access to real time feeds and lack some of the in depth analysis that other software provides. I would probably be wary if I was going to buy a new trading software, as DecsionBar doesn’t look like software that could pass high quality tests.

Multicharts.com – Is It Really Automated Trading?

Posted on : 07-03-2012 | By : superpc | In : General

One popular solution for day traders is making some pretty big claims – Multicharts.com that is. Let’s see, in 2010 and 2011 they won the t2w Members’ Choice Award, and in 2011

they won both the Technical Analysis of Stocks and Commodities Readers Choice Award and the BMT Best of Trading Award. They’ve been noted as trading platform of the year and they were semi-finalist for standalone analytical software (that costs $1000 and more.) So the big question you’re probably wondering: is this software worth the money. I’ve mentioned that it cost over $1000 and we’ll discuss price. But before we get that far, I’d like to discuss function and benefits. So here we go.

Regardless of your market plans, long term or day trader, Multicharts seems to be a good program that can help you reach your goals. The do so by proviing high-definition and in depth charts along with built in indicators, trading directly from the chart with one click and precision backtesting (don’t worry, we’ll go over these terms in detail if you’re unsure what they mean.) They also offer a choice of brokers for your feed, and support for various styles of trading. Here are some of their features, a bit more in depth for you to peruse.

Of all of the features of high quality trading software, charting is easily one of the most important. Noting the precise movements of the market to make sure you make the correct trades. And for this reason your charting software should be flexible to your needs. You should also have reliable software that has been proven and tested. Crashes are not allowed for a professional trader. Multicharts has been awarded for excellence in both reliability and quality. You’ve got to be able to see small details and big picture if you want to be able to trade successfully. However, you don’t need cumbersome and system
resource hogging extras. Multichart has all of these features in mind. They also have an award winning interface that makes traditional charting look out of date. It’s both intuitive and simple to use, so you won’t spend a lot of time trying to figure out this software.

If you’re a serious trader, then you subscribe to real time data feeds from a data vendor. Unlike some of the competitors Multicharts offers a wide variety of vendors to choose from for your data feed. They include access to most of the popular real time feeds, such as Zen-Fire (Zen-fire.com), csidata (csidata.com), barchart (barchart.com), dukascopy (dukascopy.com), quick, Universal DDE, and Yahoo Finance.

How about Autotrading? According the guys at Multicharts, they’ve got it. Here’s how it works, you can program (not as complicated as it sounds) Multicharts to generate orders based on a trading strategy that you provide. These orders are then sent your broker’s server automatically, which is automatically replied to by your broker. The successful trade is then charted for you, so you can track trades on a daily basis. This is an extremely stable way to trade because it removes the hunch from your trading. You’ll be making trades on numbers and strategy instead- definitely the way to go.

Need a real time market scanner? Also known as a screener, radar screen or quote board in other trading software’s definitions. Essentially, this looks Excel-like and can help you visualize thousands of streaming real-time quotes all at once. Once you are familiar with this function you can also add technical indicators to help get insight into the market. If you were to summarize its function, it would be to monitor and research, but also organization. Because you can spot multiple symbols simultaneously, this means a chance to see more opportunity. It’s a beautiful thing and this software seems to be the leader when it comes to screeners. The idea behind the screener is to allow you to see a bigger picture, meaning setting different resolutions to different row. This allows for easier monitoring of trends via different rows. You can even make templates to use for references. Multicharts also has a cool feature that will allow you to view a chart with a single click, and then create a unique trend histogram- the purpose being visualizing market dynamics without building a chart (although the full sized chart is available if needed.) You c an also scan and sort quite easily. If you use this in combination with hundreds of markers, you can easily dominate the market. Both visual and audio alerts from the scanner help keep you on task as new trends happen. You can even setup email alerts. Use these features; ten group the symbols to make it easy to view. You can then setup distinct and important sectors of a particular industry and monitor lots of data all in one place. Multicharts then allows you to export this data to Excel easily.

If you’re familiar with TradeStation Securities, then you’re probably familiar with the programming language that they developed called EasyLanguage. It’s a relatively easy language to learn without a lot of training, but it’s powerful for trading. It has taken over 20 years to develop, but what makes it unique is that it is one of the biggest collectiosn of trading ideas in the world. The EasyLanguage indicators and strategies are not a secret; in fact most traders have access via the internet or major trading publications. Multichart users, however, have an advantage over traders that choose other trading software, because it is easily compatible with EasyLanguage. This wasn’t something that was easy to accomplish.

Finally, a feature called portfolio backtesting is a tool included in Multicharts that provides some powerful benefits for the user. Please, don’t get portfolio backtesting and regular strategy backtesting confused, as they are actually very different because with portfolio backtesting we are looking at all the instruments in your portfolio as one whole. This is a very powerful tool. Essentially, if you were trying to define portfolio backtesting, you’d say you were trying to apply one or more strategies to many instruments at once. You use the historical data available and gauge the performance as if all the symbols were traded with the same strategy. You can also use different resolutions for various symbols. The brilliant part of this is that you can use more than one trading strategy for portfolio backtesting.
As we’ve shown, Multicharts has six key parts that make it powerful trading software: chart analysis, choice of brokers and feeds, automated trading, real-time market scanner, EasyLanguage friendly and Portfolio backtesting. It is the combination of these parts that make this software both unique and extremely powerful. In the past we have examined other trading software, but it would appear that based on functionality, awards and more that Multicharts leaves the competition in the dust. They have become industry leaders for day traders that are looking for solid software that performs. Sure, you’ll spend a pretty penny for the software (staggered pricing ranging from $99/month up to $9900 for a lifetime license) I think you’ll find that for a professional trader, Multicharts really does provide you with everything that you need to trade successfully!

Will Remote Day Trader Grow Your Profits?

Remote Day Trader is Direct Access Trading (DAT) software that’s used by professionals new and seasoned, young and old. They make many claims about their software, the least of which isn’t that they are the best day trading software around. Of course, most

companies want to be the best, but the question is does Remote Day Trader have the statistics to back up this claim. In this article we’re going to examine some of the key aspects of Remote Day Trader and attempt to figure out if it lives up to its hype or is it just another fly-by-night software system that will disappear tomorrow (after they’ve cashed your check.)
Remote Day Trader uses Direct Access Trading, meaning their goal is to give the end user the best possible access to stats and maximize their ability to perform. According to their website, the guys (and gals) over at Remote Day Trader put a team of programmers together that have the combined experience of 70 years to help develop Remote Day Trader. To add fuel to this fire, they hired mostly programmers that also have a day trading background, in an effort to give you the most usable software on the market. They collected features from many different types of programs, some the best in the industry, and attempted to combine them all to one extremely powerful software system that can hopefully rule them all.

So what types of features does Remote Day Trader have? Well for one thing, the developers of Remote Day Traders recognized something that only those in the industry can truly appreciate: speed is everything. That’s why they included the ability to send multiple executions to every ECN, even if your prices are different. And you can do this with only one keystroke, so it takes less than a second to do. This is actually a very useful feature. If you’ve been trading very long at all, then you already know just how important it is to be able to execute hundreds of trades a day, and the last thing that you want to worry about is, “Will my system overload?”

It also has a comprehensive ECN list and book combined with level II quotes and late breaking news. This is, of course, built right into the trading screen, so you’re not searching for this stuff on the side.

http://dual-monitors.org/images/Multiple-Monitor-Desktop-Trading-Computer-Google-Earth.JPG

You can actually look at your trading screen without fearing that you’re going to miss something.
Another think I like is that Remote Day Trader is fully customizable. Regardless of the style of trading that you end up using (swing and position, momentum, or scalping) you can set up this software to match your style. Remote Day Trader won’t discriminate.

They also offer black box hosting, which means you’ll get their software developers kit with access to their API. This allows external applications to using the API trading system as a platform to manage order flow. What this means in laymen’s terms is that it very easily to setup and utilize software to send and manage orders with a little bit of integrated C/C++ or even VB. The beauty of all this is that external applications can then control every aspect of the order, including time in and specifying reserve quantities (like daily reports and blotters.) They also offer another useful service as well, hosting service. Their servers are designed to be quickly. And just in case you need it, they have direct connections to the biggest ECNs in the business. To name a few they have Track Data – TRAC, Nextrade, Bloomberg Tradebook, Brass Utilities and Instinet. They also offer access to Super Mortgage.
Another benefit to using Remote Day Trader and their API is the access they offer to their programmers. If you’ve ever tried to find trustworthy programmers then you know how frustrating it can be. That’s why getting access to their team that has over 70 years of experience is so valuable. They’ll give you a black box build with more experience and less cost. That’s worth noting.

Why on earth would a day trader be worried about IT installation? Your goal and only goal should be focusing on building the best and most successful day trading business humanly possible. Remote Day Trader isn’t the only software company using server side access for their software, but they do offer high speed and high capacity connections. Using this software, with your own dual or triple screen computer, you’ll have fewer worries about system crashes, as they have experts looking after their systems. This means you can focus on making money.

Over all Remote Day Trader is a comprehensive software company that offers a variety of very useful service that I think as day traders we can appreciate. Software, like any tool, is only as good as the person using it, so that’s important to keep in mind before investing in Remote Day Trader. That said, they are a truly professional company that seems to be a step ahead of the competition. I’m of the opinion that while they may not be the end all be all of software, they are a good starting place for most day traders. With many useful features for day traders all combined into one program, I believe they offer an opportunity to help grow you business, without spending a fortune.

Pairtrade Finder along with a multiple monitor computer to grow your day trading computer business. We’ll discusss what Pairtrade finder is and how they can help your business.

Is Pairtrade Finder worth the money? Let’s find out!

Pairtrade Finder is based on what is otherwise known as a pair trading system that is used by fund managers and sometimes even hedge fund managers, as well as professional day traders.

making it almost hands free trading. You just have to look for signals, they say, and then act when those signals notify you. It has the capability of importing day for 1 million instruments from nearly every stock market around the globe, so that you have the ability to analyze just about any type of financial market. Some of these markets include, but aren’t limited to, futures, commodities, FOREX and ETFs. Its versatility is what makes Pairtrade Finder unique trading software.
Some other cool features that are advertised by the guys over at pair trade finder include the ability to back test, chart, do technical analysis, fundamentals, and get audio alerts. They claim that all of these features will make you more money (and a better day trader). So here’s the question for you: do you think these features can help improve your financial stats?

If you combine these features with a multiple monitor computer, this could be a gold mine, in my opinion. Probably one of the most important things about using software like this is the ability to use multiple monitors to stretch out this data on to multiple computers. Using multi monitors means you’ll be able to more quickly make decisions about trades because you’ll be able to utilize this software and other software as well. This will make it easier to make fast decisions which, as you know, can make the difference between making money and losing money.

Will Pair Trading Software make you rich? No, unfortunately no software has the ability to make you wealthy. However, I do believe that Pair Trading Software may give you an edge over your competition. The features it offers are beneficial for everyone small or large. If you can combine this with the power of a multiple monitor computer, then I’m of the belief that you should be able to improve your profits. Sometimes just having the right tools make all the difference when it comes to the ability to profit. With day trading, I don’t believe this is any different. In fact, I think it’s very much the same. Using Pair Trading Software could very well make you additional money and help you meet your goals. It’s a solid software, according to reviews, and ultra powerful when combined with a multiple monitor computer system.
