Hey Derrick your right...you have a great trade there in AMGN. I asked around to a few buddies and I didnt realize who you were in the trading world. Now I know...please dont have me whacked. I am willing to punch your tickets or run out for your lunch to make up for any insults or discomfort...

Hey Derrick Hobbs..you say your a trader just like the rest of us....Well how do you find the time to run a hedge fund. Sell snippets of your information for 395 dollars to people on TradingMarkets and have a 150 dollar per month trading newsletter? Oh yea and write a book. You sound like a...

For the first time ever! You can receive a copy of “How I successfully lose money in the markets everyday!” Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from the best losing traders ever. Most of these traders started with 100k and ended up with nothing! Want to learn how they turned riches in...

LOL Ebo I sure hope not! However you never know. They do say that 95% of traders fail that would mean you probably are right. Once again this thread will probably be deleted in about 10 mins lol!

Listen Baron is running a business here. When the day ends this site was put up for one reason: Sell advertising space. If the Advertisers leave do you think this site would even be in place? However, I understand greentree anger over this as his posts should have stood and not be censured...

Well that would also involve taking in to account the time in force conditions of the order. A GTC order yes if I had a limit order and never modified price I would expect the next day to have a same standing order open.

Just had to reply to this and say yes Spyderman you are correct many times over. The b/d industry and as a result traders have come along way with advances in technology and lower commisions. Its a wonderful situtaion to be in none of which goes unoticed by me. Three Cheers for Capatalism...

Agreed, when viewed that way it sounds reasonable to accept the cancel/modify situation. Everybody its time for me to call it a day with this thread. There are over 1200+ views not bad for a discussion like this, however, I am getting tired as well. With Medved's last comment I think that...

Do I want zero commissions? Sure why not I wouldn't mind trading for free, however since that is unrealistic I will settle for reduced commissions year over year. I began trading in 1993 and I remember trades at Waterhouse being charged based on dollar size. You would buy 1000 shares of a 50...

This schmuck, bundlemaker you putz , is telling you that he didnt open the thread to drive away customers from IB. He started the thread to make IB customers as well as TradeStation customers aware of their true commisions costs when applied to real life trading. I never had nor will I...

don't bring the thread down to that level. But if I may, no wonder why you have 700 plus posts in 6 months of signing on this username, when they are all 5 words response that have the intellectual capacity and insight of a 4 year child. Hey look I just got my post count up by one more...

Hey Spiderman, I agree. This place I was worried about has an extraordinary cheap commission structure. So I thought to myself hey let me move over 100k+ to this place and see how it is for daytrading purposes. Turned out its pretty darn fast and good interface. Anyway since daytrading isn't...

Lobster...sorry to have lost you on the replies. Would I attack the cheaper store you ask for turning a profit? I will assume your talking about IB as the cheaper store. Answer is yes I would make known to others that their pricing is not that "cheap" when viewed properly. Is this attacking...

When it comes to futures I usually trade between 3-4 contracts of the naz and between 2-4 contracts on the spx futures on average per trade. Interesting you seem to have an underlying disdain for 1 lot-traders with that tone "you're not one of those 1 lot traders are you?". I will briefly say...
