Ok, you said it now show us those broker stats. A simple link would suffice. Oh, you can't? If so, please keep your suppositions to yourself. I get so tired of reading these threads riddled with posts filled with fabricated B.S. Grrrr! I think ET should automatically delete those posts...

I'm a Mamis fan too. Db, I think you're being too nice pointing out this stuff to the herd. Of course, most of them will not do anything with it, which is fine with me. You've started yet another superb thread that makes this site worth a daily look. It really is pretty simple; I'm not...

I'm sorry, I don't intend any ill will but, what is the point of this thread? It's like asking people what brand and style of underwear they use. I guess what I'm trying to say is the timeframe one uses is completely dependent on the trading vehicle and strategy that one employs. Finding out...

What about investing in a decent laptop? Uni

I mainly DT eminis so I use a little app written by a friend of mine that's based on TS and esignal. I feed it with both esignal basic and IB data. For longer term stuff, I have an Extra Stockcharts membership (probably overkill but it pays for itself). I like the fact that I can log on to it...

I'm not an attorney so I don't know the specific statute but I seem to recall a case not too long ago in which a person received and erroneous deposit into his or her checking account at a bank. That person promptly set about spending the windfall but as soon as the error was discovered, the...

The Motley Fool site went from free to pay a couple of years ago. There was a noticeable decrease in posters. Of course, that may have been due to the fact that the site sucked wind anyway (except for a couple of good discussion boards). I'd be willing to bet that most of the MF refugees came...

Sorry to rain on your parade, but if you knowingly withhold information about the mistake then you're committing a crime. You should report it asap for both legal and ethical reasons. Uni

In fact, maybe this particular link may help: http://www.tickdata.com/StocksBySymbol.html Uni

Try this link and scroll down to the "Historical Data..." section and you might find what you're looking for; plus it's a kick a** post anyway. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?threadid=27875 Uni

I trade the eminis too so, FWIW, here's what I do: Before I pull the trigger, I calculate EST. I usually use stop limits to get me in and I'm normally scalping for about two points/trade with the ES (multiple contracts). I mostly trade retracements so my initial target is the previous swing...

Which is a common theme with clinically depressed people. Livermore committed suicide because he was afflicted with depression and it probably wasn't properly treated (they didn't have the drugs then that we have now). I have witnessed the disease and its manifestations first-hand...

Huh?

I don't have any hard evidence but I'm sure the many women in his life had something to do with it. Add in the flaky son and the mental condition and he had a recipe for a huge money drain. Great but sad life story, though, only known by traders. I still go over his maxims and principles on...

Please accept my apologies, mtc. I normally abhor the frequent flame fests that go on around here, I don't know what came over me so excuse the venom. Yes, that is one harrowing story. I'd probably have a colored perception of deadheads if that had happened to me so I understand...
