Hi,

Im using IB with about 16 charts and just Moving averages...

After about 30minutes it suffer serious lag and sluggishness, often requiring mouse clicks to be repeated etc before it responds to commands.

Obviously this is no good for intraday trading so im wondering if any1 has a fix for it, or should i just buy a new computer.

My Laptop Specs are:

Intel Core Duo 2.26ghz
4gb ram
vista 64bit

And it can play the latest games (crysis2, DeusEX the new 1) :p

Anyway if it is a problem with the laptop id be happy to get a dedicated trading PC because i probably need 1 anyway.

If buying a new pc wont fix it though then i wouldnt be happy buying one yet, so just wondered if any1 has had the same problems or knows a solution.
 
the general wisdom is to never (and it is literally - never) to use IB charts. get yourself Ninja - it is free and it works.

IB has worse tech team in the industry. their arrogance is legendary.
