Yeah, I was drafted. After college. But I don't see where gb said anything "insulting" to vets. And I sure don't have to wait for my son to go into the navy to understand what you seem to think I don't. The only thing that will really change is his bedroom here will be clean. Probably will be...

I would check with your health care provider. Might be covered under mental health benefits

After hours? I am sure they do during hours if there is a glaring mistake. But I am pretty sure the RULE is that the trade CAN stand if not contested within a specific time period. ECN's of course will break a blatant mis-trade during hours if they are aware of it. They have NO UPSIDE to let the...

Non market hour trades stand, unless agreed to be busted by both sides of the trade. Market hour trades are busted in a case like Optional's .... he didn't specify, but if that happened during market hours, the seller for 1 penny had the right to break the trade for 30 or 60 minutes (forgot...

Like you did with Mr. Market? Is that what he is doing? Or is there a difference between standing up and begging? (probably just "sitting" is a colloquialism, and what Mr. Market is doing over his meat and cheese is begging for more...standing? Technically I suppose). BTW...have you been...

Yup, very confusing stuff. Having taken the series 55, as many of us have, it is still confusing (maybe more so). Speaking with the operations people at whatever firm you clear your trades through should give you a clearer idea of what happens in your specific situation. For further...

WHAT??? Bung hates this country? What are you talking about???? It amazes me sometimes what I read on this site!!! But this is really over the top! As far as Powell; Magna, Babak, and so many others have expressed their views beautifully. I have had the honor of meeting the Good...

Asking this question make the answer irrelevant to you.

You guys on the west coast that have not been watching this show should treat yourself to tonight's episode. It really doesn't need to be in context (though of course it helps). But tonight's show, to me, set a new high water mark in network series scripting, acting and overall quality for this...

I don't know what the dialogue from the movie was, but the correct term is "checks". The fact that people call them "chips" is just a common misnomer. There are in fact "chips" in a casino. They are at the roulette tables. They have no denomination. Just a color to differentiate one player from...

How much in Thailand? Got my ticket for Sept. 7th...for a visit and a little business. Never been there before. I keep getting told I can retire nicely there even now at my tender young age. Anyone know? My needs are modest. Good golf, a place to live, food and shelter, and my wife...

Yes, the OCC disseminates the information. But like I said, it is your clearing firm that will pass the information on to you, and reflect your new positions on your statements or runs. Quoted from that OCC site: "OCC STRONGLY RECOMMENDS CLEARING MEMBERS CONTACT ALL HOLDERS OF EXPIRING QAZ...

Money cannot buy happiness. However, poverty be pretty sad. I don't think many would argue with this. How many really rich poeple are truly miserable? How many commit suicide, take anti-depressants, become freaks like Howard Hughs, or Michael Jackson? Too much money can be a burden. Someone...

What a pathetic answer. So it's all about money and your quality of life, or your enjoyment of what you do to make your money is irrelevant? You would shovel horse shit and break your back for 8 hours a day if you could make 7 figures? Really sad!!

Graphic artists...Do you guys realize if you take the letters from Optional777, Commisso, Candletrader, and Publias, rearrange them, you come up with Pablo Picasso? Miro, and just enough letters left over to spell "modern art" (or something like that).

I don't think the OCC deals with inquiries from the public. I think the exchanges are a better bet. Things may have changed, but when I was at the CBOE, the OCC really was the overseeing agency for the exchanges and clearing firms, and I do not believe they gave out information to the pubic...

Maybe a bit off topic, but a quick story. A long, long time ago, in a far away place (Boulder, Co., 1988) I had a client...very young guy, who worked for NCAR (National Center for Atmospheric Research). He was very tuned into the global weather patterns. He used his info to trade Orange Juice...

I beileive there are many services that offer this. Insight I believe does it. Schonfeld's proprietary software does it. If you have enough screen space, you can do it yourself. Just make a list of stocks you want to trade ( a lot of very thin stocks will show great relative weakness or...

Version 8.5. just like version 7.xx is devoid of any scheduled theological subsystems. However, both versions appear to interface with the Hebrew version of Spousal Error Correction, which is a TSR (terminate and stay resident) program that cannot be halted in any way, or even have it's icon...

Brother Candle, We all must forge ahead. Can't stand in the way of progress. I know you yourself are not using DOS ver. 3.3 (at least I am pretty sure you are not). Keep up with what's current, or get lost in the dust of the past. Always strive to stay ahead of the curve, and always try to...
