Re: [SLUG] Stock market software and WinXX
I trade using CommSec, viewed via Mozilla Firebird, and it works just fine. P.S. Buy Amalgamated Spats!!! And I have used ComSec with Galeon - no problems. I hope that you have your ASIC Financial Services Provider licence since you are offering market advice!!

[SLUG] Stock market software and WinXX
I've prided myself on not using Win**, but the desire to play the stock market has brought me undone. Two questions arise, given that I really don't want to dual-boot. first: Is it feasible to run IE under wine, win4lin, crossover or any other reasonable solution. The specific application is some strange downloaded thing from a company called AOT online stock broking. I have no idea what it is unfortunately, although I suspect it's Java. I've also heard that the latest CommSec offering is windows only .. .some sort of .exe download. If anyone has any cluesticks on this stuff I would be mightily appreciative. second: Is there any company out there that has a real-time on-line stockbroking solution that is cross-platform? Please accept my apologies if this has been covered elsewhere. My excuse is that i've always ignored any discussion about windows. regards, David -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug

Hi Mark If it is JAVA then install it if your bandwidth allows you the time to download it. www.java.sun.com then add the JAVA plugin to your browser, this can be done by reading the README file in the downloaded java file or there are plenty of web pages that explain it. http://texturizer.net/firebird/faq.html If you are concerned with bandwidth then the JAVA plugin might help. http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/ Darren On Mon, 20 Oct 2003, Mark Johnathan Greenaway wrote: On Mon, Oct 20, 2003 at 11:06:49AM +1000, David wrote: I've prided myself on not using Win**, but the desire to play the stock market has brought me undone. first: Is it feasible to run IE under wine, win4lin, crossover or any other reasonable solution.

I use Mozilla on RH 9 RH 8 to trade on WWW.Commsec.com.au. And works well for me. Complementary to this, there is Market Analysis program that runs on linux (it also runs on dos if you prefer) that you can download from eiffel-mas.sourceforge.net that you can parametize to give you an analytic view of your portfolio. It can alert, highlight, etc based on your preferred parameters. It is free too.
