    This is why you should short Citibank

    Citigroup Inc. seems like it is caught in a never-ending game of whack-a-mole: The second the bank knocks down one problem, another pops up. On Friday, Moody's Investors Service downgraded Citigroup's long-term ratings, saying it expects continued losses related to mortgages and other complex...

    I Quit

    I think you just need to read a few good books on investing and trading. Books on Warren Buffett would be a good start. He is hard to beat.

    Phantom quotes on ARCA

    I have done arbitrage successfully many times before. I am only encountering the phantom quotes recently. This brings up another question. Why are the quotes stale? I didn't pay IB or ARCA for stale quotes.

    Cramer fires back

    I Agree. People who are harsh on Cramer are losers. I can't believe people actually expect to make money on every stock tip Cramer spits out. In life, no one guarantees anything. Learn to live with uncertainties. If you can't handle uncertainties, don't be a trader.

    Phantom quotes on ARCA

    In one case, the quotes were crossed late in afterhours. The bid from ARCA was shown to be higher than the ask from NSDQ. So I bought a bunch of shares from NSDQ, only to discover that I couldn't turn around and sell them on ARCA. The ARCA bid disappeared when I hit it. I had no...

    Phantom quotes on ARCA

    Phantom quotes on ARCA

    Ok, how do you enter an "iceberg order" with IB? Can you do that with TWS?

    Yeah, but the stock wasn't moving at all at the time. It was hardly traded.

    Phantom quotes on ARCA

    That's amazing, the cancellation happened 3 times right upon I entered my orders. This is late in afterhours, when nothing seems to be moving. How does one enter an order with size hidden with reserve quantity? Is that possible with IB?
