The Lawrence Chan Blog

I have diverse interest in many things from science and technology to martial arts and ancient health practices. Obviously, discussion of these topics should be done within my own blog as oppose to keeping them here. Hence my blog is created so that I can have a venue to express my creativity and thoughts on my other interests. For those of you who share similar interests, you can check out my site TheLawrenceChan.com

Due to the sheer volume of articles I have written about trading, many of which are trading related yet not technically in line with what DaytradingBias.com is offering, they have to be split from my blog into yet another site. Hence for my non-technical writings about trading, videos I have curated from various sources that I think are useful for traders and my reviews of trading related products, you can find them at the site Essence of Trading

The reason why I picked the Tai Chi picture above for this page is best explained by my article Tai Chi Traders in a World of Chaos at Essence of Trading.

Below are the old blog posts that were originally posted here. To avoid broken links from other sites, I have decided to keep them here.

Domain changes may affect access to Daytradingbias.com

2013 Mar 6 Wed 2:39:01 | by Lawrence

I am moving the domain registrar from one company to another for daytradingbias.com.

The hosting service is staying the same though.

Disruption to access the site should be minimal.

Interesting Computer Equipment

2013 Mar 4 Mon 22:59:08 | by Lawrence

I was working around the hospital today and guess what I found.

movable_pc

This cart is made by Ergotron with rechargable power supply at the base. It has this tiny LCD display down there showing the percentage backup power left. The whole idea is obviously making the computer available everywhere on the floor.

The cart itself is multiple times more expensive than the computer.  =)

Toronto Heading Towards Megalopolis Status

2013 Mar 3 Sun 10:38:37 | by Lawrence

Later this month (March 2013) Toronto is going to add more area codes to our already confusing basket of area codes.

Last time I checked, Toronto with its surrounding area has already surpassed 5 million in population.

At this rate, it will turn into a megalopolis in several years.

Yet our city planners have no idea how to deal with the growth at all.

Major traffic problems ahead!

Reviews Everywhere

2013 Mar 2 Sat 23:21:14 | by Lawrence

A friendly advice from my friend who happens to be an ebook retailer executive that I should post my reviews to the ebook retailer sites. I am taking his advice seriously because I know he knows his stuff well.

So I am going to copy the summary of my reviews over to Amazon and possibly to other ebook retailers too. The good thing is that I can also post review of books that are not that suitable for the daytradingbias.com website. For example, reviews on teen novels I bought my kids probably should stay with Amazon.

Should be interesting to see how people react to my reviews.

Site Changes

2013 Mar 2 Sat 23:09:20 | by Lawrence

Due to the way how Google search and Google plus work together,  I have to list the articles on the site in some kind of static pages so that it is easier for Google to index the pages. I still do not understand fully whatever that means though. All I know is that my web guy has to separate the research article listings from the signal pages.

Now the signal pages are listed under the signals menu and the articles are listed under the research menu. It should not be difficult to navigate at all.

Hopefully this round of changes will be the last one for at least a few months.

Google Plus … errrr

Learned something new today. Google would not let you "claim" your authorship to the articles you publish online unless you have setup a Google plus account and somehow linking the content to your google plus profile. If you do not claim y …
