Theoretically, yes you could have. First you could have bought 100 of the ask @ 26.25 and turned around and sold it for 26.52 gross profit $27 Secondly, to the next level buy 1400 @26.26 and sell 3@26.52, then sell 1 @26.49, 1@26.48, then 5@26.40, then 3@26.36, then 1@ 26.35 gross...

I agree with the above post. I don't appreciate one person setting the price of a stock. I would rather have a 1000 people set the price. All you hear on this board is that the specialist filled me here and the specialist filled me there and the specialist dropped the bid on me and on, and...

Yes, that is an interesting level 2 picture. JBHT was up four dollars Wednesday. Trucking stocks absolutely exploded last week. The surge in the transportation index is causing some analysts to declare the economy is turning and has bottomed. Roadway and Yellow had good weeks,also. If the...

I have an IB stock account. Although, I don't have a lot of interest in futures trading, I would like to see real time T Bond futures quotes to help assess what direction the stock market may take. Also, it would be helpful to see a crude oil futures quote in deciding whether to go long or...

I like trading news in stocks. For example, stock ABC warns at 9:00 am est that they will miss revenue targets by 50%. I want to short stocks like this for a quick scalp. Which news service would do me the best job? I assume a bloomberg terminal will be the best. However, I cannot afford...

I think I am going to faint. I can't believe someone on this board is trading gold stocks. Nice going. NEM is my favorite. I hope you are watching spot gold trade when playing the gold stocks. Next time, show some balls and buy 10k shares of DROOY.:p

I used on a trial basis. I did not like it. Java based quotes were pretty crappy in my opinion.:mad:

I like the way you explain your trades. Easy to understand. Look forward to reading your posts.

You can get some of that info at http://www.interactivebrokers.com/ Look under ECN's.

<b>What a great thread!</b> Now who will be the next guru to step up and show their true colors. You know there are some more! I have heard some big claims around here...Big money..owning 10k shares in a stock that trades 100k a day! Step right up..the priest is in! ROFLMAO!

I would like to see a list of shortable stocks with one click from the TWS platform from the Help button. As it is now, you have to click help, then IB Home Page, then Trading information, then shortable stocks. Sorry if this has been discussed before or it is already possible.:p

<b>12-03-01 06:56 AM 1.5 million That was a nice apartment. To make 1.5 million, you have to make $4500, everyday 250 days a year trading. Not an easy feat, but definitely not impossible. With your consistency, maybe in another year you will be able to afford it. </b> A $4500 a...

Att broadband was down about 53 hours, but I got the call they are up again. I did the automatic configuration option. I had to redo my email...no more user@home.com. Your email is now username@attbi.com. Life is good.:p

Excite service poised for shutdown Bankruptcy ruling may mean yet another setback for broadband 12/01/2001 By VIKAS BAJAJ / The Dallas Morning News A federal bankruptcy judge in California gave At Home Corp. the right Friday to shut down its high-speed Internet service, which...

From what I hear, excite@home is in bankruptcy court, and the bondholders want the judge to turn off the service to millions of subscribers including my own ATT@home. I never thought it would get this far, but if you have excite@home service, your cable access may be turned of tomorrow. Ain't...

As I stated in a previous thread, I cannot believe traders ignore their favorite stocks for 30 days. I believe this rule is ignored, hoping not to get audited.:eek:

From what I understand, if you daytrade a stock in December, you may not trade it again for 30 days to avoid the wash sale. This rule has always seemed senseless and confusing to me. So if a person daytrades just ten active stocks like QQQ, JNPR, INTC,MSFT in December, then that person can't...

You must right click on a Nazdaq stock "Best" for the level II option. Thanks N Juan:p

Thanks for the answer. I didn't know all that. I have a tendency to want to call you Foghat, though.:cool:
