Being a former network administrator myself, and understanding how congestion on the Internet can impact an online trader, it does surprise me that serious traders utilize an Internet connection. If I were a professional trader, I would not use anything short of a direct tie-in to the computer itself for my charts and order execution. This would be a dial-up line to the computer rather than an Internet connection. After all, we are talking about the professional trader's livelihood here. I would think more care would be due in the selection of ones access to essential trading tools. Bob Graham
