this is the right strategy. In fact, I already thought about suggesting exactly that.

It's important to keep in mind that one can receive an odd lot position also a result of a merger/acquisition where the acquiring company pays with its own shares instead of cash. Therefore it's very important that at least the closing of odd lot positions will always remain possible on...

I agree wholeheartedly. What I am interested in as active investor/trader: - very detailed company statistics such as valuation measures, fundamental data, financial information - historical end of day timeseries, if possible not only for the US stock market but also for several...

Hello Jay (iqfeed), any update on the implementation of the changes to DTN's historical server architecture which will allow DTN to create a filtering mechanism (for historical data)? You mentioned in October 2003 that DTN didn't have a hard date for completion, but was shooting for the end...

@JayF_eSignal: I'm interested in eSignal + the desktop API as alternative to DTN.IQ/IQFeed and would like to know what eSignal's approach regarding mistrades/busted trades is. I'd appreciate very much answers to the following questions: (1) Do data feed vendors such as eSignal get...

Raw data is fine for live streaming quotes. But for historical minute data? How can you implement your own filtering? It's not possible! If you retrieve a historical minute bar during backfilling, you don't know if this bar includes mistrades. And even in those cases where you definitely...

JDSU minute data backfill: (Chart made with DTN.IQ software: ) Note the 15min bar containing a downward spike which makes the data useless for P&F charting.

My understanding is that JTrader needs the old, outdated and buggy Java virtual Machine by Microsoft, not the modern Java 2 plattform by Sun Microsystems. Microsoft originally tried to marry Java with its Windows operating system, contradicting Java's concept of platform independence...

Three charged in massive ID theft By Matt Andrejczak, CBS.MarketWatch.com Last Update: 7:41 PM ET Nov. 25, 2002 NEW YORK (CBS.MW) -- Federal authorities charged three men Monday with stealing credit information from more than 30,000 people in what is being described as the...

Sorry, cgjung, but your post is baloney (at least the mysterious explanation about hedge fund transactions). Tax issues always depend on things like your country of permanent residency, but not on the ISP you use to log into your brokerage account. If I make a journey to a foreign country...
