Hey countdown,

I'm not IT expert but looking at my PC, it got one physical 'port' on the display adapter card (DVI type). But, it has a Y-dongle. One DVI (many little pins, looks like a D shape) interface to TWO VGA (15 pins) dongle. This is how I hook up to two monitors.

No extra software needed. The OS (Windows) will recognize it from the display drivers that came with the PC.
All I need to do is to make sure to tell it which one is monitor 1 and 2.

It's good to multiple monitors for looking at various stocks!

Thanks man, it really helps. After checking my desktop, the mobo has 2 ports, 1 VGA and 1 DVI. I'll tinker around with the built in software for the dual monitor controls .

yeah, one screen is insufficient, toggling in between screens inconveniently .

Get 1x big 24 inch or 30 inch monitor fix all.. Dual monitors need dual power cord and dual DVI/VGA/HDMI cables..

Great idea, squeeze everything into one. At least can view 6 combined stocks/indicators/index at one go.

At one time, I had a quad monitors (17") system. Pretty messy with all the cables.
Then, I changed it to a single 32" monitor (actually it's a TV). But, due to its proximity, find it more difficult to use.
Everything looks enlarged and too upclose...stocks window still doesn't stack well.

Finally, changed to dual monitors system (22" wide) actually works much better for me.

AAPL long side trade is working..

I'll target the exit around 455. Coming up soon..

In the other realm, Facebook keep going strong.

Oh man.. FB is indeed very strong. This is a must buy if it dips.

That gap area would be nice spot.. but I'm probably going to wait a longer here.

i got hit by tight trailing stop. anyway, will re enter when it hit back 33/34

Hello there,

Anyone here diversifying their portfolio on ETFs' listed in NYSEArca?

I've spotted a few ETF I would love to purchase, wondering if it is possible for Malaysians to trade in NYSEArca.

Sold FB weeklies 35 PUTs for 40c per contract. Willing to take 500 shrs at 35 by Friday if it happens,
otherwise I keep my $200.

super strong FAGBOOK. oh my god. Nearing $2 today

Wow... lots of buyers for FB indeed.
I'll get some if it can come back down later.


Anyway, AAPL got to my price target: 455. I'm cashing out.. ka ching!

No issues with malaysian to trade. Just open a direct account with American brokers

nice, abalone for you once again!
my apple finally turns green in my portfolio.

Going to JB for dinner and shopping this weekend!

Not sure about abalone.. tired of that already.
Gimme claypot fish head curry and tiger prawns anytime!

same here. actually i don't like anything from the "budha jump wall" pot.

oh! tq for reminding and yes proximity has to be taken into consideration as well.

Few local punters are aware of U.S. stock bull run, guess when these punters come in, is the time to cash out.
