Stock Trader here!

Good timing mate. Lets see what type of data collection method will you be using?

Will you be putting a trading platform on your PC eventually? I can't stand trading on just on the web based method.

i'll be using Lightspeed, esiganl, and TC2000. I won't be collecting any date on my pc, My direct access and charting providers store that info on their servers

Probably shoulda quoted my post, I had no idea you responded!

I see, you won't need a whole lot of horsepower it seems, how many monitors are you going to hook up to this computer?
