    The fast food vendors are really missing the boat on breakfast. If they want to attract customers and make real money, they should offer cold pizza and burritos!

    TradeStation charging margin liquidation fee during 15 minute halt

    No, I've always shut down at 4:15. I called the futures broker... he said "today's trading day ends at 5:00PM ET, and to have overnight margins met by 4:55, if applicable." I don't know if it's the same for listed exchanges. CME saying, "settlement in the ESM is calculated at 4:15", seems...

    Not "Trading Software" specifically, but W10

    Here I am... working the transition to W10 from W7... and I'm not happy. My W7 network was installed in 2012 and is still working, "smooth as a gravy sandwich" on the original install. Now, Microsoft tells me I have to junk all of that and redo it on W10. Well, I've messed with W10 on a...

    "We're On A Very Dangerous Path" - Pelosi's Page-Ripping 'Resistance' Is Harbinger Of Things To Come

    "...We are more deeply divided than we have ever been, and during this election season I believe that we will see very frightening eruptions of anger and frustration all across the United States..." HOGWASH! Overacting drama queen. What we're divided about... is the Left so desperately wants...

    How to improve my risk management for daytrading.

    In Bill O'Neil's book, he recommends... "if you have a portfolio of stocks, don't risk more than 8% loss on any individual position". In the same regard... if you're "trading the market"... via ETFs or futures... I suggest you not risk more than 2% of capital on any one play. If you want to...

    Looks like "money pump" trumps possible world-wide pandemic

    The "wild card" on the coronovirus is that we really don't know yet. Can't trust the Chinese to tell us the truth... EVER! We'll just have to wait and get a measure on... Percentage of people who get infected and areas that become infected* Mortality rate... currently we're being told "2-3%"...
