    state schools with good CompSci/Engineering programs like Penn State, U of Ill (Urbana-Champaign), Rutgers and others are less than 11K a year and are top schools. And to out of state students for perhaps 20K or less, if you happen to be unlucky in the state you reside. You don't need a top 5...

    all it needs, is a charge of 2 cents to a credit card or paypal or bank account debit or anything else. or again, nonfree IPs. Once you are minimally verified, you cannot hide beyond drive-by anonymity. this site's verification process went out with the hand cranked Ford Model T. We are...

    you are one of the most deluded trolls in the history of Trolldom and Sociopathology. It is amazing how you continue to demonstrate your idiocy and bathing in the glory of your own lunacy. Apparently, the concepts of community, reasonableness, fair play, give-and-take among fellow traders...

    Any Gain Capital Traders care to share their experience about the firm?

    Quote from T-Bone Trader: Good points - just pretty peeved that the platform went back online at the exact moment my position went from +50 pips to -35 pips it was pure coincidence. I have seen people complaining about their broker multiple times in a month. I had a broker (Xpresstrade)...

    Wrong. Very wrong. The majors I listed are earning this kind of money, as long as a GOOD SCHOOL and GOOD GRADES. And hiring is obviously down due to the economic situation, but this will not remain. Try stopping by a very good engineering school (like Carnegie Mellon, Lehigh, MIT or...

    Simple options. --- Get a very marketable degree (as aforementioned) and earn $45K+ to start with a decent future. --- Or try to trade, burn up all your $$$ and become a grocery bagger at Target for $12K, while you lick your wounds. This is the 98%+ path for trader wannabes. It is...

    Some foreign banks drop U.S. clients because of UBS flap

    This will not stop with the USA. Guaranteed that the UK, Germany and some other countries will pursue banks - Swiss and other offshore centers. These banks will wind up dropping many European clients, especially if the US prevails in getting a lot more names out of the bank. Some foreign...

    Head and Shoulders forming on the S&P 500 - Target price 800

    Like the first 2 posts. "Anyone see the H&S?" "We will see if it a failed pattern" So it may work it may not. how useless can this be? Sounds like Elliott Wave people arguing over which wave and sub wave and reactive wave each person sees...

    Getting a BS in a good major is FAR FAR better for most people than trading. Very few people with small accounts will ever be lucrative for a lengthy period of time When I say good major, I mean Computer Sci, Accounting, Nursing, Phys Asst, Engineering. at a GOOD school. Or becoming an...

    Any Gain Capital Traders care to share their experience about the firm?

    Every broker is going to let you down at some point. But changing brokers every time something bothers you is going to lead you to a number of lifetime broker changes. What if you had avoided big losses during the hour you were out? Would you be griping??? Try having a little thicker...

    SPY intraday timing question

    Try to understand the question. She isn't just looking for the move. she obviously wants to know if the direction can be predicted also at a certain time of day. And the answer is NO. I have seen enough TOD analysis that you cannot just say "gee, at 10:07 every day, you can count on an...

    some day, this site will hopefully understand that allowing free, unverified anonymous people who can spam or multi-alias without limits is going to destroy this site. cold/c-kid is just an example of what the future holds. Has already discovered that broker/book/software reviews can be...

    I noticed the known successful traders don't post anymore.

    You give a mindless post and consider him/her exposed? Which alias are you using to make this claim again???

    Volume analysis is to be discarded as it is "too much information"

    Quote from Xspurt: But no, it's not just a tool, any old tool. This is the one that the exchanges and MM's don't want us to have. You only have mental problems if you actually believe what you said. EXCHANGES don't want people to have it? Exchanges have ZERO interest in what traders...

    $500 Day Trading Margins For EMINIS

    Most brokers I have seen charge about half daytrading margin as against overnight requirements (excepting the $300 or $500 disaster-seeking brokers)

    Looking for a trader

    Your avoidance of the issue makes it quite clear that you stand within the continuum of dreamers, paper traders, alternate-world backtesters, those who avoid auditing, or those with a nice equity curve built on the backs of hidden bad stats (Profit Factor, Sharpe, Max Drawdown, etc.) It is...
