shit NO you're totally ahead of my shit :D

Simple fundamentals: the US printed too much paper money - more than any other country. Also the US is not able to pay back its debts with income tax revenues. Except for technical support and resistance levels, there is no sound reason why the USD should rise. The USD could be the first...

Ameritrade is not a Direct Access broker. You were trading against your customer service - that's it. You should place multiple orders, smaller size. Yes, you got screwed. Quit ameritrade.

Well yeah. I'm with you. I've found that 11 hangs a lot. And i can't really "get a hang" with its features and design. As of now I wouldn't want to forego version 10. It's working fine and showing great. I was checking competition. No matches.

Go to Yahoo. plenty of forward and backward discussing and about that "don't talk - send some money" thing... Many Japanese were actually really thankful for the kind words of comfort. And we didn't jump ship on our arguments. All our eyes are on the guys fighting the heat. They're trying...

"Every trader gets the broker he deserves" :p

It's so ironic that the markets still rose yesterday. Especially the China Index. I was long in BIDU and only learned of the quake later the day. Friends of mine were in Tokyo yesterday. It was supposed to be their last day before they were heading back for America. They told me they were...

for the 2 years I am with IB I contacted customer service several times about several issues via mail or chat and one time via phone. They were always polite and helpful. One time though it took 2 weeks til I got a mail reply. (It wasn't urgent anyway) When I was starting trading at Etrade...

I wonder if there are any anti-FTT and anti-PDT-Rule guys in the Tea Party movement? Or is everybody who's not a trader/speculator/investor an anti-markets guy?

Most trading software don't work on Macs. If mine would do, I'd run it on a Mac.

I think that's a very great feature. Before that, when I accidently deleted a line or a fibonacci pattern, I had to close the entire chart without saving and reopen it, hoping my drawings was still there. I was asking for this feature many years ago already. Of course this won't help one's...

Those fucking Germans :p I mean in a positive/humorous sense :) The world's still got plenty of money to spend. http://tech.fortune.cnn.com/2010/05/28/ipad-madness-in-munich/?source=yahoo_quote

You're not. Glad you keep this thread alive. The Europeans, especially the Germans, are shooting themselves in the knee. Leftist parties (they're now the majority) wanna block everything unless Merkel comes up with a FTT at least for the euro zone. I just learned about a new word: on...

If you think that Barack Obama is one terrible regulator, take a look at the so called conservative-libertarian politicians in germany/europe. I mean, even libertarian parties are now pushing it. I call it the Bismarck-effect: back then he gave germans public health care so wouldn't lose his...

I'm just wondering how much science fiction is in there http://www.godlikeproductions.com/forum1/message1062655/pg1

Just a few days ago they were showing the quotes of the French Franc on the ticker on Wall Street. This is just psycho-warfare. I think the euro-countries will stick together when the going gets rough. One thing for sure is, shorting the Euro is great a bet. Think about what will happen...

The article on that page says .5% ------------- The 0.5% rate at which stamp duty is paid in the UK is far higher than that of Germany and the US, and therefore threatens the LSE's position as one of the world's top three stock exchanges. However, Mr Brown was never likely to make such a...

my favorites - also based on your criteria - are AAPL RIMM AMZN MSFT QQQQ PCLN isn't as liquid, but it does have some very nice intraday swings

A financial transaction doesn't necessarily generate an income. A FTT will guarantee that you won't generate an income at all since you've killed the transaction with the tax. So for most reasonable countries a capital gains tax will do. While you're right on B.O. being anti-capitalist - he...
