Unfortunately, you have to go through the firm that executes the trade. If your trades are done through Redi, then you would have to go through SLK. But if you execute through a third party software that executes via ISI, for instance, you would call ISI instead even though you may clear your...

That's probably the best plan. :D

That's exactly the point. BrandonF, I know how to trade and do very well, thank you. The point is that the specialists are misrepresenting themselves. They tell the public they are there to provide a fair and orderly market when in reality they are traders like us that are there to line...

I only meant to convey that every almost post seems to deteriorate after that many pages into things way off the original topic, but none of the others have changed that I have noticed. No big deal, as long as you are aware and approve, I am happy. Thanks for the response, this is the number...

Just show me where to sign :)

Oh yeah, I think all the firms supply doughnuts these days... I can't stand when people go to the doughnut box, pick up a doughnut, then see a doughnut they would rather have, put down the first doughnut and proceed to take another. ONCE YOU TOUCH IT, IT IS YOURS! Everyone got it? This is...

I have traded exclusively NYSE for many years and agree with you 100%. While I have made a lot of money, I don't think one day goes by without me feeling like I got mugged by the specialists. I've had days where I make loads of cash and leave pissed beyond belief because of some of the shi*...

I despise anyone who makes more money than I do. There, I feel so much better now. Thanks, Don, for letting me get that out. :D

It has to be said --> Isn't this what YOU are doing? (Disclaimer: I have no opinion about this thread or anything in it, I have never coughed up money for ANYONE's seminar, just think this Nihabi guy is kind of a weirdo).

Baron, Just curious who decides which threads should be edited? It seems that lately it has been happening a lot more, I notice mostly in the professional trading and self-employment forums as I read that most often. The first example I noticed was the thread of a post that read "Why is...

nylord1, When I used to trade on Redi we used to call that 5-second delay from when you send an order to when it gets confirmed a "blue ringer", because the button would indent and have a slight blue ring around the edge and stick there for a few seconds. It makes sending multiple orders and...

Very much agree with this too, install the network card instead of using a USB interface with your cable or DSL modem, much more reliable, no performance issues.

I concur, my DSL gave me spotty service but since I switched to cable (well over a year ago now) my systems run great.

I can only laugh. WOW! Hey Habari, maybe you should have your mother walk you through my posts and explain the context to you. I am not expressing any vendetta towards Don or his firm. I was only agreeing with another poster about my displeasure when the title of the thread changed at the...

Oh the power of a paid sponsor! I have to admit, I also am a bit surprised that Baron allowed the name of the thread to be changed. It went from "Why are people so against bright?" to "Bright Trading." because as Don said, "it took on a life of its own." So why is it not now named "Tax...

Van Buren (soon to be ECHOtrade with the merger) has an office there. That SF trading office is one of the only I have heard at any firm that might be hiring fully backed guys. The word is they are looking for more fully backed guys to trade a Van Buren proprietary strategy, but they have to...

100% Correct. There are many other differences as well, but that and the Series 7 requirement are two of the biggies. I believe newatthis is very incorrect and this structure will be allowed to continue indefinitely, the SEC already has reviewed this structure many times, and thank the Lord...

Ahh yes, the perfect world! And everyone would get the company car of their choice, every trader would also get to live in a mansion and everyone would make ten million dollars a day! I'm sure if you asked any trading firm about your ideas, they would love to see them implemented, but they...

With my strategies I sometimes need a lot of small bullets in different stocks, like 100 shares of 20 different stocks, and quickly. I have to give a plug to ECHO because their system works great for my style, they only require 100 min. (I talked to other firms that had 500 min. or 1000 min. on...

:D :D :D So true, so true :D :D :D
