Hey everybody! I wanted to see if we could possible setup another meetup for sometime in August for the NYC metro members. We had an incredible turnout the first time around and we've only grown since then! I know Fernando and Carlos will attend and maybe, just maybe we can get the 'boss' to attend as well. So I am putting this out there to see what everybody thinks. Throw out some dates and lets see if we can come to a consensus! I know I am available every Saturday except for the 11th (beer festival at Heckscher State Park out here on the Island), but other than that I am free!

Hi Guys! This is JB and I really want to thank Andrew for being such an excellent and inspiring teacher for me and for creating this amazing community full of dedicated and serious traders! I want to start this topic to share with the community all my journey in the simulator. I appreciate any feedback from you guys. So this is officially day one and here is my video recap:

The best part about this career is the ability to be in complete control of your time and flexibility to trade from anywhere. Today we took advantage of LB for a nice opening range breakdown. I was able to listen in to the chatroom while trading on my way up to Canada for family vacation. Just amazing. $BILI (which has been my good buddy this week) was screaming at me with a great risk to reward, I had been watching the stock all week as well as this morning since premarket for a bounce from the PCL. After settling in on my hotel room, although it was passed my trading time (11:30), and I had already done the video recap, the opportunity was to great to pass up. I got in long and took advantage of the move. Hoping everyone had a great day today as well!

Still a SIM newbie, but I'll check this out. Looking forward to some BBT swag Mike

Sean, I had the same exact issues you are listing above when I tried to use my MacBook Pro with Parallels. It works great for all other windows software but it just does not play nice when using Das Trader Pro with multiple screen and multiple Montages. When I was using just one screen (the laptop screen) it was more stable. Once I added other screens it just didn't perform well. The default template would sometimes not stay on the multiple screens so I would have to set it up to fit correctly. In rare occasions the software would freeze or not respond. Once this happened several times when I was on the simulator, I called it quits. I did not want to go live with a system that was not stable. My suggestion is to invest in either a PC or a laptop. PC are cheaper and give you more bang for your buck, easier to set up multiple monitors and easier upgrade in the future. I took some of my capital I had saved up for trading and invested in a good PC system. Hope you find a good stable system! One less thing to worry about when you are 100% focus on trading. Carlos M.
