Just to clarify what timeframe they are actually referring to, "post-decimal" means after decimalization of the Nasdaq has been fully rolled out. The last stage of that process is due to be completed on April 9, 2001. So at this point, it's going to be at least another 3 months before they make...

Implementing a book review system shouldn't be too difficult. What I need help on is determining approximately five different metrics by which a book can be rated. In addition to a written review, a reviewer would rate a book on a scale of one to five in these areas, which would enable a site...

rtharp, I like the book review idea, but I'm wondering if that should be a forum within the message board or a completely separate section of the site. The reason why I'm thinking this way is because it would be nice to have a standardized way of reviewing books, like we have with the brokers...

One thing to keep in mind is that you will have to take on more risk than normal because your capital is limited. In other words, you won't be able to spread your risk across multiple positions because you'll need to put all of your buying power into a single position in order to make a profit...

I've got a like-new copy I'll sell for 100 bucks if anyone's interested. Baron

Lancer and anybody else, If you have any .pag files you would like to contribute, email them to me at baron@elitetrader.com and I'll make a new section on this site for others to view the pages and download them. If you could include a short description of each one, like the screen...

Lancer, I have some friends that are involved in the ongoing development of Realtick, so if you have any other ideas regarding order entry improvements (or any other improvements to the software), share them here and I'll pass them along. Baron

zboy2854A, If you want to contribute your layout, send me the .pag file and I'll post it online for others to download. I'll put mine up as well, plus any others I can dig up. Baron

Just wanted to say that Datek Direct has been added to the brokers list. So if anybody has used this service, please use the <a href="http://www2.elitetrader.com/br/">ratings system</a> to give us your feedback. Baron

December 4, 2000 - Datek Online Brokerage Services LLC, a subsidiary of Datek Online Holdings Corp., today became the first major online brokerage firm to allow its customers to direct Nasdaq trades to the Electronic Communications Network (ECN) or market maker of their choice. "We have...

mjt, thanks for the feedback. The specific ratings you mentioned have also been brought up by several people through email. I have corrected those ratings to "more accurately reflect the true intent of the voters". :) I have also implemented your suggestion about removing the default...

Thanks for the suggestion. That feature has actually been in the game plan since the beginning. The reason why we haven't implemented it yet is because we wanted the listed brokers to get a sufficient amount of ratings so that a listing by ranking would actually yield relevant and meaningful...

RJT.com has been added to the list of brokers that can be rated. DJC, if you could rate this firm officially, that would be very helpful. The link is: http://www2.elitetrader.com/br/index.cfm?action=rate&R_FirmID=108 Thanks, Baron

Castle just got the boot. False ratings will not be tolerated, as they benefit nobody. Baron

globaltrader, the average rankings is now done. Archangel, the "last time visited" feature is now done. mjt, the editable broker's ratings is something I'll have to think about. In order to make it work, I'll have to require that only members can use the broker's ratings so they can be...

GlobalTrader, thanks. That will be implemented ASAP. mjt. The trading platform ratings is next on the agenda. The only reason it's not already done is because I wanted to make sure the broker's ratings system was relatively bug free before I worked on another one. Baron

I want to remind all members that your constructive criticism of this site is always appreciated and that your reports of any problems is essential to keep everything running smoothly. I'm serious about making this site the best site in existence for active traders, but I can't do it without...

I can't even begin to express how much money I would have made in the past if I didn't have to deal with the uptick rule. Baron
