    What should I do about these trades?

    Market orders expire at the end of the regular session, not 4pm. Since you entered both orders after market close, they carried over to the next business day. Almost every broker handles market orders this way.

    How do you know you have passed Series-3

    For my Series 6, 63, and 7, the computer printout was stamped with a seal. That is your score sheet as far as I know. You're not mailed a certificate or anything like that.

    Borrowing from 401k?

    Regarding rollovers to IRAs from 401k plans, while you get full freedom to invest in whatever you want in an IRA, keep in mind that many 401k plans don't have maintenance or exchange fees. Also, sometimes the class of shares of the mutual funds are better than what you can buy retail. Some...

    Borrowing from 401k?

    Hey guys, I work with 401K plans so I'll try to clear up a few things. Every plan is different, whether you can take out a loan at all (some plans don't allow them) or what type of loans you can take (general purpose, primary residence, hardship) is determined by your company when they...

    S&P has topped for 2006

    Is this supposed to be sarcasm? I can't tell. There is a phrase for poker players that exhibit these traits, we call it "busto." Those that haven't completely crapped out yet are simply running well. But kudos to him if he's managed to make money while suffering one of the most basic...

    S&P has topped for 2006

    I joined this forum when I was in Chicago. I am pursuing a different career path, and trade only for supplemental income. I lurk mainly because I am not a professional nor do I have a crystal ball like you do. Yours seems to be made in Taiwan though with your most recent prediction...

    S&P has topped for 2006

    I speak when I have something to say, not when I want to make an ass of myself like you do apparently. And I have Chicago in my screen name so I must be a Bears' fan, you are a genius.

    Who thorn is or what he has done in the past doesn't make trying to predict the market or calling tops any less retarded.

    This is really very simple. There are plenty of people making a lot of money trading and there are plenty of people making a lot of money playing online poker. The key difference is online poker claims can be verified quite easily with no inconvenience to the person other than posting their...

    From poker player to stock trader.

    Do you really expect anyone to believe you? Let's look at this objectively. You claim you make $300/hour. Party only added the higher limits about a month ago, so what were you making before that time? I assume you were playing the 200 NL tables? Regardless, that type of win rate...
