Politics is everywhere, why not from a stewardess?. Oh excuse me, flight attendant. I forgot to use newspeak. Even on ESPN I once heard Jon Miller blubber something against conservatives. I can't turn on the TV at least once a week and see someone bashing the right and go unchallenged. Say...

I'll never forget Mark Haines (CNBC) saying that it appears a plane has hit one of the World Trade Center towers. I immediately invisioned a small Cessna wedged between 2 of the steel columns. I'll never forget the gaping hole and the silhouetted image of the plane's outstretched wings in the...

Can't argue with that. Often times the 2nd-tier stocks in a sector are far better traders. It's another reason I don't daytrade the Q's. You gotta buy 2000+ shares in order to make a dent, and all that does is run up my commissions (using a per-share broker).

CCMP can be a real ride, sometimes moving 3 points in 1 day as opposed to a point or so with the others. But I won't pay that f**cken 20-cent spread that many times shows up.

KLAC QLGC MXIM NVLS CCMP (spreads can vary on this one - be careful) Don't worry about price - the above will be within 7.00-27.00 before long :D

CNBC is faster than Briefing for the big items like CPI, jobless, etc where they have Rick Santelli standing at the CBOT essentially reading the ticker. What I don't like about Briefing is that the futures are showing volatility for almost a minute before I get an alert that some other key...

If the Queen had balls she'd be . . . Janet Reno :D

Since we're daydreaming, what if I bought 100,000 shares of 3.00/share INVN on Sept 10, 2001, or sold short ENE at 85.00? Or shorted WCOM AMZN and YHOO in march 2000 while everyone else was buying like no tomorrow ?

Briefing.com is slower than CNBC so that's out.

"Hey Ted, what was the ticker symbol of your company, GTWQ perhaps?

Dowwww 5000. Nazzdaaak 800. New lows on the dollar, new highs on gold.

I asked for a quote on their website 2 weeks ago, just to see what that 6-monitor setup Tony uses costs. No response from them yet. :mad:

Jturner - Use stops. Plan your trades and trade your plan. Use stops. Trade small lots at first (IB is great for this). You've got a 5k cushion before you drop below 25k so earmark that cash as your learning 'tuition'. Use stops. Dont overtrade. Maybe use 5-minute bars at...

It ain't shortboy that's for damn sure :D

Just in case you get Maria-sick, here are some of her gems: :) Dow Futures down 120 points: "There's money on the sidelines!" :D SP Futures up 0.5 points: "The market's poised for a rally!" :mad: Nasdaq Futures down 35 points: "Sector rotation; money going out of techs, into -fill in...

Chuck - Can't get it to interact with the IB trader workstation. I set up the ActiveX and socket ports as directed, re-started esignal but the 'Tradelink Window' under the Tradelink menu is greyed out. Any suggestions?

Oh that was great. Also the doctored up pic of Steve Liesman wearing Magilla's hat was classic. Here's 1 vote for 777's screencaps :D
