    Vancouver BC traders unite!

    Interesting. My wife and I did the opposite(Canada-US). Here's what I'm thinking.... Keep everything the same. Reason being is that I am going to assume that you will continue to file taxes in the US. Note: since you are both(?) US citizens, you are stuck for life filing US taxes. So just...

    Still bitching about the rain, eh? :D Actually we just had a friend down from Vic. Island and he said that you guys are looking at record rainfall this winter. Sounds like fun. :(

    CNBC Offering Trading lessons now?

    I wouldn't be suprised if they somehow blend Trading 101 in with Ron Insana's new financial newsletter. I thought it was rather odd of NBC to state that he's becoming an analyst and starting his own newletter without them having some vested interest in it. So I can see the TV being a...

    Zone Alarm

    That was my second choice. I think it was around $80 at the time. If I didn't get PC-cillin I had ZA Internet Security Suite all picked out. Came real close to ordering. I kept waiting cause I was that nervous about the "luck running out". Plus 6 had just rolled out - like a first year car, I...

    Zone Alarm

    I have to admit that I always felt "lucky" that for some reason I never had problems with ZA. But the more I read about other peoples problems the more I dreaded updating. I always wondered when my luck would run out.

    Zone Alarm

    Sorry, I switched away. No problems with ZA that caused me to leave, just me. Using Trendmicro PC-cillin now. My neighbor works for them. So I got *cough* a discount *cough*. :D Quite impressed with it. No problems here. I'd definitely buy Trend Micro's stuff - if I had too.

    Ron Insana - Analyst?

    I noticed this morning when the jobs number came out that they refered to Ron Insana as an analyst? And he seems to be off Street Signs. So I did some digging. Looks like he's going to start a financial newsletter...

    Witnesses for: Maestro / abogdan / Market Guidance / RTN / Magus Trading

    When we fly back home, we land at Pearson. We stop at the closest TH outside of Mississauga, so I can "get my medicine". I get a sour cream glazed donut and a large double double and my wife gets the honey dipped donut. You can't help it. :) Edit: And we put the radio on CFNY 102.1.

    Witnesses for: Maestro / abogdan / Market Guidance / RTN / Magus Trading

    That was my plan too. My only concern is that their home market is saturated causing growth to slow.

    Witnesses for: Maestro / abogdan / Market Guidance / RTN / Magus Trading

    Huh, just checked the officers page. There's a guy on there Ertel, I think I went to school and played hockey with his kid. I can't remember the name, maybe Terry or something like that. And Weiland Ford, that's a Ford dealership in Kitchener. I remember that off of Block Line and Ottawa...

    Ferrari Enzo horror

    wow. Look at the car. Where's the back half? I bet the other 399 owners are celebrating. http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/060224/480/la11402240124 It was a rare and exotic animal: a Ferrari Enzo, one of just 400 ever brought forth into this world. When you saw this thing coming...

    I got layoff today

    So I'll try to say something constructive... First, you're skills, seem good. You really didn't explain much, but it's not like I'm hiring. I read on yahoo or /. that .NET is in demand so there should not be any worries. Now it looks like you are gunning for a trading system dev. job. But...

    I got layoff today

    I think there was some spammer floating around here a while ago. quantcareers.com(?) or something like that. Avoid that one. BTW, my buddy goes throught the same crap every 3 months or so. He's been contract now for almost 8 years. He bitches about it, but there's not too much choice. He...

    I got layoff today

    Hey, did you forget how this works. First you pump him for more info. Ie. What company, does he have system building skills, why he's used EL. etc... Then you wait until he says something REALLY stupid. Then we all jump on him. Stick with the plan!:D

    Does the CFA Open Doors?

    I just looked at the CAIA. I think it makes sense and would agree with Copernicus that is has potential value. I don't know this first hand mind you, but it is logical that HF and others would want to broaden their investment options. Ie. spread beyond the typical stock market arena. This...
