    great dell monitor cheap.

    It worked fine for me. I ordered two today. Maybe you are trying to add it to your cart via the home office store? I'm guessing. Make sure you go to dell and enter the small business store. Then find the monitor, add it to your cart and paste in the coupon and update. That's all I did and...

    As someone seriously considering this firm, could you provide any detail on the advantages of being offshore?

    Trading versus other businesses

    Actually, I believe I will go with MB. I currently have an ameritrade account and will keep it open if MB ever goes down in a hot market. But with MB's new pricing, 1 dollar for 100 shares sounds great. 100 share trades will most likely be my trade size in the beginning.

    Trading versus other businesses

    That's actually exactly what I was thinking regarding what "success" would be in year one. Limit losses. Try to trade well. I think managing emotion will be the hardest part of the first year. From reading these boards, expectation seems to be where a lot of people fall off. Swing for...

    Trading versus other businesses

    I plan to be as patient as possible, especially early on. The first 6 months I will be trading smaller share lots and keeping costs low. Really just trying to focus on small gains initially and always putting money management first. I don't want to wash out in 8 months. I want to build this...

    Trading versus other businesses

    I will have between 25 and 30k. My wife will be working and basically able to cover our bills. What do you think of that amount? Some say it's plenty and some say it's suicide.

    Trading versus other businesses

    As someone who will be losing his job (company downsizing) in the very near future, I will be attempting to trade full time. From what I have learned and observed, trading is perhaps the toughest business on earth. But, just as in retail or the restaurant business or any other entrepreneurial...

    Is J. Cramer's stint at CNBC over?

    I think he's a valuable market commentator and he does show his exact track record via real money. I think his enthusiasm and tell it like it is style are a refresing change from all the sheep on television that loves stocks at their top and pan stocks that are at their bottom. He seems to be...

    Trading after a job layoff

    Well, we have about 1800 a month in expenses. My live in girlfriend and soon to be wife makes about 1500 of that. The extra 5k was actually something I was really thinking about. I see the pattern day trading distinction as a big advantage. But my thoughts were to force me to position...

    Trading after a job layoff

    I could absolutely do that and that was really the plan. After the unemployment ran out, I'll see where I'm at. If I am profitable and have grown my account past the 25k for pattern trader status, then all systems are go. If not, I would get a job to support it. Unless of course, I was...

    Trading after a job layoff

    well, the 5 years have been while I'm working as an Insurance Underwriter. The stability of the job and having a family have just kept me on the sidelines. But now, given the layoff I think it just might be a sign to get in. And I'll be leaving with around 12k that's really free money from my...
