    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    Well, if what they are trying to do is go where the money is... Why don't they do just that. Go to where the money *is*! If they imposed a 1% tax per year on net worth they could even eliminate income tax completely and still come out ahead. Then they could leave the rest of us alone to get...

    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    It's easy. All they have to do is try it. Wouldn't last a month. Every try to buy or sell in a market without speculators? Go on, try it. There just ain't anybody there. Even more cool when the bid and ask both disappear completely. I've seen it! What's the price? Talk about a...

    Update on LS... Hopefully it is ok for me to do this... Just a couple of days ago I asked to have my LS acct closed and funds wired. The funds have already been added to my other account, even though the transfer was international. They were quick, efficient and professional about it.

    LOL! We can't be talking about the same thing. I'm seriously thinking about hiring it even without hooking it to a broker. Is this what you are talking about? http://www.fipertec.com/NanoTrader.html

    As a further comment, I must say that I liked LS's platform very much too. Very different from NanoTrader tho. I've seen and used many, many platforms. I would rate both of these platforms at the top if there were no other issues.

    No, no... not at all. Nano is the most up-to-date software I've seen. State of the art. User interface is smooth and polished with excellent on-chart trading, dom, etc. I saw no glitches when I demo'd it. The best and fastest backtesting system I've seen by far as well, with weighted...

    I got a demo from NanoTrader a while ago. Looked very nice, and I think they do IB. Demo was short tho... make sure you have enuf time to play with it before requesting demo. Be interested in hearing your opinion.

    "Scaling out" is inferior behavior

    That is how *you* do it. We are happy for you, and it *is* interesting to see how different people trade. Can anyone claim there is only one *right* way to do this? If everybody starts trading the *right* way, some adaptive person will come along and break those "right" rules and clean...

    "Scaling out" is inferior behavior

    I'm kinda curious... How old are you? Do you actually trade? Do you know what a SOES Bandit is?

    My spam doesn't get automatically filtered. I found a different solution so I wouldn't have that problem. I do make other silly mistakes sometimes, so little reminders are good. Thanks. :)

    I am using SSL. Thanks for the suggestion tho. They gave me a list of 7 ports to open to get VPN to work. Of course, the list of ports to open varies depending on whether you are talking to Chris or Jorge. I decided to use SSL instead. I must say that your response is interesting to...
