    Elon Musk Internet with latency under 20

    That's lame, but I recall trading the ES on a 56k modem way back when... didn't seem to be a problem. Any kind of "latency" issue should even out. On some plays the latency will cost you a tic or two and at other times will gain you similar. Succeeding in trading has little to do with any...

    Who Is Kamala? She WOULD Become President If Biden Fails Or Steps Down

    Yeah, no kidding. I've been to every part of the US. Except for the "front range of the Rockies", everywhere else is "too extreme" about something... temperature, humidity, storm potential, ect. Years ago the Denver Chamber of Commerce's tag line was, "Denver... Climate Capital Of The World"...

    Elon Musk Internet with latency under 20

    For retail screen jockeys like us, doubt it will mean anything at all. Why? Physiologically, an "intentional act" like being "trigger ready to click off a trade and then doing so"... takes an average of 300ms to execute.... that is the "time it takes from when you decide to click the mouse and...

    DeBlasio lied about his nationality! He is NOT Italian

    DeBlasio is a Communist, lying POS... a total waste of human skin. What nationality is that?

    Done with Pro Sports.

    Agree. I've tired of watching rich black guys play sports and then bitch about how "life ain't fair". Thank goodness there is hockey.... small, tough white guys... many missing a few teeth!

    Its the Close that really matters

    Disagree. Proper S/R trades can occur at any hour. All are equally valid. I specifically check for a possible play at 3:50PM and also 4:00PM. There were both yesterday.

    Its the Close that really matters

    With that view, you miss much. Proper trading involves "trading around support and resistance with a tight stop". The close has nothing to do with that conceptually.

    Who Is Kamala? She WOULD Become President If Biden Fails Or Steps Down

    Oh, I can. I don't do drugs, including pot.... though I do like me some "O'Dell's 90 Shilling" and George T. Stagg. :)

    Who Is Kamala? She WOULD Become President If Biden Fails Or Steps Down

    You've got that right. And while I've come to hate the politics of Colorado, I've been to Flor-i-DUH. So, "no thanks".... though I wouldn't mind the "no state income tax". :)

    Can you company find out if you did not disclose a personal trading account

    Yes and no. "Compliance" has rules they must follow. I can see the restrictions are even greater now that before when they applied to me. Any trading you do has the "potential" to be a conflict of interest vs. customers... and likely up to you to defend "otherwise". Basically they don't want...

    Can you company find out if you did not disclose a personal trading account

    Don't try to "fly under the radar". No upside to it. For any institution that is required to know about the financial dealings of their subordinates... there is a rule about "supervision". That is there is a thing about "failure to properly supervise" if you don't know about financial...

    Should amount to risk vary with trade frequency?

    If you're "trading successfully", you should trade more. If you're trading poorly... you should not just "trade less". You should STOP TRADING ALTOGETHER and preserve your capital.... until you can "figure it out".

    Who Is Kamala? She WOULD Become President If Biden Fails Or Steps Down

    What? You think "only that" would deter DemoCrap voters? Few of them even bother to know, and the rest don't care. They just line up and "vote the ticket", as instructed.

    Who Is Kamala? She WOULD Become President If Biden Fails Or Steps Down

    Of course! But the Lefty/DemoCrap constituency is a bunch of brain-dead sheeple*... who are likely to vote for Biden just because their party says to. That's a big worry to me. Even if Trump is seen as an egomaniac, boorish, self-indulgent, "pussy grabber"... nobody in his right mind who...

    Who Is Kamala? She WOULD Become President If Biden Fails Or Steps Down

    There is the story that the Dems are hoping the sheeple will "vote the name you know" and elect Biden. Then to have Biden resign as president or "somehow" have a medical deterioration which prevents him from continuing in office. That would leave Harris as POTUS. The DemoCraps would...

    Who Is Kamala? She WOULD Become President If Biden Fails Or Steps Down

    Who is Kamala - Steve Baldwin Exposes Kamala Harris: "I watched an interview with her. She is attractive, animated and absurd. She stated that she never had children; yet was a “Mother to her husband’s children.” And she “loved being a Mother.” She said the children called her “Momela”...

    A new economic era?

    Yeah, well, we're not likely to ever see that. "Progressive Taxation" is well known as a political tool of power and control. Our government is never going to give that up, sadly. Our "tax return document" should fit onto a post card. Our original "tax laws" were printed on 4 pages. Now the...

    A new economic era?

    Personally I think our tax system should be the same for every individual. That is, if there is an "exclusion" (say, for the first $30,000 income = no tax), then everybody should get that exclusion. Then above $30K, a flat tax of _____%. Everybody pays that. The rich would pay more, of...

    A new economic era?

    Disagree. Corporations pay corporate tax rates just as citizens pay personal tax rates. The "tax policy" for us includes collecting some from corporations. If the amount they pay isn't "just and fair", it's because the tax laws allow it. If one sees a problem, it's not the fault of the...

    A new economic era?

    Disagree. You speak as though there is a "fixed amount of pie, and the rich are able to get away with getting too much of it"... leaving the others with less. Fact is, the rich make MORE pie for themselves. And some of that spills over to others. That's always been the American way...
