I guess there are no terms announced yet. Do they normally announce acquisitions like this on CNBC first? I don't watch it that much anymore.

Oh just saw the news. Did they announce this on CNBC, before it hit the wires? That's odd. Anyone know the terms?

Anyone know why this has gone up $8 in the postmarket?

I must be mistaken, but does it seem to anyone else that earnings reports are spread out more this quarter than they usually are? Normally there are 2 super heavy weeks of earnings, another 2-3 weeks are pretty heavy, and then almost nothing for the rest of the quarter. It seemed to me this...

I'm with you. Dollar goals are meaningless in trading. There are days when you can do no wrong. Exploit it as much as you can. Take whatever the market will give you. It'll make up for the days when you can't get anything going.

You can get the same web-based isld book they used to have at inet.com. You have to register at noii.nasdaq.com, or maybe it was nasdaqtrader.com. (It's free, I think, or really cheap.) Please, nobody pm me asking me what steps you have to go through. I currently have it running, but for...

I have 2GB RAM, so I don't think it's a memory problem. Also, it just started happening on 4 monitors, so it can't be a monitor issue.

Under 'mouse properties' I have these choices...buttons, pointers, motion, hardware, activities, scrolling. Looked under all of them, couldn't find 'pointer options.'

I have Win 2K...under 'pointers' I don't have any options for 'display pointer trails.' I'm pretty sure it's a glitch, it only shows up on occasion.

All the sudden my mouse pointer has a 'trail' from time to time. It's a very thin, horizontal line extending about an inch from the pointer, and has different colors. Has anyone ever seen this? Any idea how to get rid of it?

On Genesis' Laser platform, can you change your order price by clicking inside the level 2 box, like most level 2 order entry programs? For example, could I click on one of the 3.25 offers for LU, and have it change the price column to 3.25, in the following video...

To answer my own question, it appears that you have to have a video card that will accommodate rotation. I have a Matrox quad in one computer that allows for rotation, and an Appian dual in my second computer that doesn't seem to. On my computer, it's right click on...

Is it possible to configure your system so that it recognizes your monitors that are standing vertically? Does it depend on the monitor? I was thinking about getting some Dell 1902FPs because you can rotate them to stand vertically, but it would save me some money if I could just do that with...

As soon as I get ready to call customer support, the problem disappears. But I have this problem every day. It's usually during the regular market...if a stock moves, for example, down 50 cents in a minute, the ecn bids will still remain above the (correct) ask, even though they're stale quotes...

Regarding frozen quotes, here's a good example. Right now it's just into the premarket, and I'm looking at ESCL. It's trading at about 5.70. The ask columns are correct, but there are a ton of quotes from yesterday lined up on the bid from 6.00 all the way up to 7.66. It's almost impossible to...

I'm only getting the top of the ecn books in IB's level 2. Are they no longer offering the complete books? I believe it's been like this since the beginning of the year.

Frozen quotes. Almost constantly.

TradeStation and Penson are both paying about 1.5%, last time I checked.

I just don't understand why IB won't execute against EDGX. As the originator of this thread stated, there are a lot of times that EDGX is the best bid or offer, and IB won't allow you to trade against it.
