Mossberg's technology reviews are excellent (PDAs, digital camera's, laptops, etc.) The op ed page is the best in the world. Cofi Anan (secy. general of U.N.) wrote a piece yesterday. A couple weeks ago a letter supporting Bush signed by several eastern European leaders was big news.

<b>3:23PM Iraqi troops offer surrender; told to come back later</b> : London's Mirror reports that terrified Iraqi soldiers have crossed the Kuwait border and tried to surrender to British forces - because they thought the war had already started. According to the report, the band of a dozen...

What do you mean "until"? Tradestation is advertising on their website and in print that there is 20 years of intraday futures data available. Is this not the case? For the e-mini's, do they have the full 3:45pm to 3:15pm the next day? Is it tick data? 1 minute? or what? Say I want to...

I'm not familiar with this reference. Is this from a story of a black swan?

Yes, I can confirm that fills are better in the e-mini. So much better, in fact, that it makes up for 5x the commissions.

I'm currently boycotting Perrier and Evian. The French can sell it to Saddam.

Or is it "Lead is currently in the sparkling mineral water."? Hmmm? :)

With a systematic trading system I'm a slave to taking the signals. No sick days and no vacation days.

You are the same guy that was looking for an offshore manager for your offshore fund and never explained why your manager had to be offshore. Now you are back requiring your auditor to be offshore. Why? A U.S. CPA can audit your offshore partnership just fine with a little research into...

If you are in the NW suburbs I can recommend someone.

It sounds like bone is implying you should offset short term gains from your equities and options with mixed long term and short term futures losses. That is incorrect. By filling in the forms (6781 and Sch. D) you'll see that you can only offset short term gains with short term losses and...

What are the missile silos for? (I mean other than launching missiles from.) Who are they going to launch missiles at from downtown DC?

Thank you, abishiai. I hope they tested the strategy on a bunch of markets and not just Oats!

Could someone who has the February issue tell me if the dynamic breakout system in the System Lab section is an end of day strategy or intra-day? Could you also explain the jist of the strategy? I don't get the magazine but check the activetradermag website every month to see the table of...

At first when I read this I was thinking "How could he have bought an IBM PS/2 on Ebay?? Ebay wasn't around in the late 80's when the PS/2 came out!" I guess I'm dating myself PS means "Personal System" instead of "Play Station" to me. Remember the good old PS/2? Originally they were based...

Look at Trendy's screen shot link... You can place trades from either the "Market View" window or the Scalp window (the vertical window on the right side). The rest of the windows you can close. You'll probably want somewhere from a half of a screen to a whole one of your two monitors...

No rebates that I'm aware of. $2.32 of that $3.32 is CME and NFA fees, by the way. Doesn't leave the FCM and IB much room for rebates.

FFastFill for large/active traders and Interactive Brokers for small/infrequent traders. The difference is due to FFastFill's fixed software cost but lower commissions. IB has only a small data fee, otherwise it is all variable cost. FFastFill and IB are the sponsors of the Trading for a...

I believe the previous poster is wrong regarding the exemptions to NFA membership -- he seems to think there are none. Check it out for yourself at the NFA website -- you can download their guide to membership.
