I'd say your lack of experience trading will quite likely be an asset and not a hindrance. To put it simply, you're starting with a clean slate. As long as you're an intelligent guy and have a personality suitable to trading, you should have nothing to worry about. Just take good notes on how...

I have had 3Mb DSL as a back-up for my RoadRunner (5Mb) for the past few years. Obviously, the cable was faster (5Mb vs 3Mb), but I just upgraded my DSL service to 6Mb for $28/month from AT&T one week ago. My router (Xincom XC-DPG502 Twin WAN Router) normally does load balancing between...

:confused:

when you think you should be clicking while you're watching the film, just wait and click in that spot when the film is done. i found everything within a couple of minutes and spent more time than i'd care to admit trying to figure out what the film was for.

In the past, I generally did tell people I was a trader. I do not volunteer it any longer, mostly because I got tired of explaining it to people who either had no clue, or thought they did but didn't. The most "interesting" response I ever got was from my mother-in-law the first time my wife...

You should know that you can't go by insider selling. People sell for all kinds of reasons. Their stock was supressed for several years. I'm sure there were lots of employees with options that had been worthless for a while (option strike price higher than the current price) and just figured...

took me four rolls (it's 2 AM, so i'm a little slow right now :) ). as for how the name is significant, think visually.

i have an aeron that i got back in '99 and used daily until last year, when i purchased a Lifeform Ultimate High Back Executive Chair. the aeron has since been relegated to being used as a guest chair. the aeron is good, but when trading, i rarely leave my chair once the market opens until it...

Toshiba unable to keep up with demand of iPod Shuffle... "When it comes to the supply-demand balance we are currently unable to satisfy all customer demands," Muromachi said, noting in particular the launch of iPod Shuffle by Apple Computer Inc. (AAPL.O: Quote, Profile, Research) in January...

Easy. Apple takes over the world. ;)

Nah. I quit worrying when Steve took the lead again.

you're comparing a $250+ iRiver to the Shuffle? :confused: ...and using that comparison as a basis to say that nobody will buy the shuffle? hate to break it to you, but somewhere in the neighborhood of a million shuffles have already been sold and they haven't even been out for a month.

i'm also trying out the software with my IQ Feed data feed and would appreciate any tips, updates on previous comments, etc.

I can't tell you what will work for you. What works for me is using a real-time screener to alert me to stocks that are moving right now and not stocks that were moving yesterday or last month. If you choose to try this route, learn some charting basics so you can spot patterns...
