Good luck with the Dmark, I am not sophisticated enough to trade foreign currencies, I still have to get my head in gear to trade the Bond.

I have been considering playing the DJ Futures on days when I am less than positive about the action. It trends better and has less risk/reward than the spoo.

ComCast, my local provider, allows me to split 3 computers off the same box; this is quite a savings. It's $40 a box so I would have been shelling out $120. They will charge me only $6 each for the extra two so I only get hit for $52. Suresh and Scott helped me, and then my son picked up some information from his friends. It seems all you have to do is purchase a 10 Base T 4 port hub with an uplink and an Ethernet card for each computer, then buy a spool of RJ45 phone wire. I had to spring for 100' of RJ45, so that may have added significantly to the expense but the total from J&R was $133.31. I don't know how it breaks out, as I had my son set it up on the phone and all I did was pick up the phone to provide my credit card information.

There is another way of doing it as well but this seemed to be the best approach.

My only concern at this point is the degradation. I currently split my cable signal 6 ways. This will bring it to 8.

I think the Clinton issue will kill more traders than not. If you decide to trade off it, please be careful.
