Java Trader

I'm still running a small p133 computer with a little amount
of edo ram and small screen space. When I get my new computer
built in a few weeks, I'll have space for the download and
screen presence of the Java Trader.

What the Java does offer: more robust stability during active times, trading history
and account balances in view and updated instantly, and a chat
channel built in. It also precludes you from shorting anything
that is not on the short list.

What still needs working on is being able to preference
market makers. In time.....

Most traders are using both the Java Trader simultaneously with
the Kill Key. They do this because they like to see their
trading and account balances updated in realtime. They prefer
to trade through the Key, however.

I haven't played around with it at all. But by looking
at the web page, it looks kind a cumbersome compared to the key.
I don't know if one has the option of making it smaller
so that just the things you want to see are in view.
(I don't need to see Level II on it if I'm trading
with the Kill key.) I also don't know the quality
of the chat. Its in its infancy so users of the
Java Trader, let your opinions be known so that
the independant software developers can take note.

I'll have a better anaylsis after I try it out myself.
Pros/Cons anyone else?

S.W.
