    Embarrassingly Stupid Americans

    Iraq and Interactive Brokers

    You are not from the US, are you... as any perennially wasted college kid will tell you, the minimum age in the land of the free to buy or be served alcohol is 21, not 18. We now return to our regularly scheduled random IB rant of the day.

    FXManager with Oanda

    Good for you. Have you progressed past the currency futures trading stage where you figure out the tick value and set the CME straight? Apparently, for the last 8 years or so, they've somehow managed to screw up something as basic as the tick value of the Euro FX futures, according to you...

    Congratulate me! Or not...

    If that's unleveraged (?), 0.1% a day is outstanding, for stock trading. Now turn that sucker loose.

    Spitzer' Gal a shared Asset - it's getting better

    Spitzer may be smart academically, but high standardized test scores, of course, have basically nothing to do with street smarts. In fact, the two are likely to be inversely correlated. Whether in his (formerly) private life or in an arrogant way he was often reported to behave in his jobs...
