Well, I'm not doing anything underhanded. I've mention several times on various boards, that I'm using a spreadsheet to track my port.

I know what I'm doing and program my macros to minimize traffic.  But a recent change in my strategy required that I radar a lot of stocks.  I have no intention on causing problems with the site.  But my warning was that if you intentionally cause someone's web site or computer to lose internet access, you may be breaking the law.

Very slow system response today. Anyone else experiences that? Oleg Max Sep 18, 07:56

every couple of pages times out on me this morning... RazorHawk Sep 18, 08:06

Same here... {nm} slappydavid Sep 18, 08:59

Same here - using Chrome. {nm} MojaveMeg Sep 18, 08:22

same here - using Explorer 8 {nm} daveart Sep 18, 09:16

Yes. Very annoying. {nm} Rigit Sep 18, 09:55

There's someone overloading our server with multiple connections since yesterday. {nm} Antibody Sep 18, 10:03

is it this guy? RazorHawk Sep 18, 11:18

No. {nm} Antibody Sep 18, 16:10

Funny . . . No I have not started scripting against HSX.... websch01ar Sep 19, 05:52

nothing against you.... RazorHawk Sep 19, 08:16

What is their IP address? I have enough bandwith to ping flood them to death. Problem will be solved. {nm} up_up_and_away Sep 18, 13:36

Be careful, with all the current new internet laws, that could be illegal, especially if you declare your intentions on a public forum. {nm} elchan Sep 18, 13:45

Don't worry, I have the power. :) Seriously, Antibody, give me their IP address. {nm} up_up_and_away Sep 18, 13:50

Now I understand the purpose of your warning. You didn't want me shutting you down. HaHa!! {nm} up_up_and_away Sep 19, 13:05

Well, I'm not doing anything underhanded. I've mention several times on various boards, that I'm using a spreadsheet to track my port. elchan Sep 19, 13:30

Oh, btw, was it my IP address causing the problem? Just so I don't cause problems again. {nm} elchan Sep 19, 14:00

We're under attack! Get the womenfolk and kiddies into the bunker!! DTravel Sep 18, 13:39

Yeah, I'm timing out all over the place too. Thought it was because my port has over 1100 stock in it. {nm} elchan Sep 18, 12:48

Part of the problem is that the HSX site works on a pull model instead of push. I keep having to refresh periodically to see forum updates. elchan Sep 18, 13:49

The site is still very broken for me. Pages are to unreliable to make proper trades. {nm} up_up_and_away Sep 19, 08:06

Block the IP and be done with it. (nm) Wit Sep 19, 08:26

For Antibody, just in case it's my spreadsheet causing the problem, is the problem being cause by IP 173.178.*? elchan Sep 19, 09:01

It is still painfully slow for me. I haven't made a trade for a couple of days because it is too annoying. When can we have the game back??? {nm} firefox Sep 19, 09:49

No more timeouts for me today. So it's probably not my IP that's being blocked. {nm} elchan Sep 19, 09:53

This isn't going to end well. {nm} edzep - Port Monkey! Sep 19, 10:16

Are we not allowed to use spreadsheets and macros? {nm} elchan Sep 19, 10:58

Depends edzep - Port Monkey! Sep 19, 11:05

I did not know that. Hard to believe that people who own over 2000 stocks actually clicked on each stock from the web page to by it. elchan Sep 19, 11:25

If you issue the trade manually from your spreadsheet that is ok, but if you have the sheet auto trade based on criteria that is illegal {nm} JDolphin Sep 19, 12:45

Well, my spreadsheet doesn't do anything without me around, to allow it. The problem is that for the bulk buys... elchan Sep 19, 12:50

I'd like to hear Antibodies' opinion on whether I'm breaking any rules with my spreadsheet or if it is indeed me causing the problem. {nm} elchan Sep 19, 12:51

I would like to hear his opinion too. and welcome the era of hsx autotrading. Will save me so much time. {nm} up_up_and_away Sep 19, 13:15

One click for multiple trades is considered manipulation. {nm} Antibody Sep 19, 13:43

Thanks. So is it ok, if I generate the posts individually, and then post a trade with each click? {nm} elchan Sep 19, 13:58

Only if you share. grammar Sep 19, 16:21

Same here and was happening last night. {nm} grammar Sep 19, 11:49

I continue to struggle. Slow response times; sometimes no response if i use the drop down box to trade. {nm} goodvibe61 Sep 19, 12:25

It seems similar to the slowdowns we had back when the solution was thought to be removal of portfolio section summary info (as a default). {nm} edzep - Port Monkey! Sep 19, 12:31

I'm not running any of the bulk buys today, so any slow down is not caused by me. elchan Sep 19, 12:54

Still very slow {nm} Goremaster Sep 21, 07:31

Firefox here and it times out its so slow. {nm} Pandorawc Sep 23, 13:02
