    TradeTheMarkets DVDs: Futures Trading Seminar

    The DVD set is from www.tradethemarkets.com which is different from www.TradingMarkets.com. And I was trying to sell it, not to get my money back. No ET'ers have offered to buy it so far, but sooner or later I will re-list it on eBay. Thanks guys.

    Use neighbor's unsecured WiFi as backup connection?

    Some perspective on this subject from: http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-wifisecurity16mar16,0,4772862.story (If you go to the article's link you can click on "Expert tips for safer surfing" but if I include it this post is over the size limit.) Ensnared on the wireless Web...

    Hermin Miller Aeron

    I bought one when they first came out (1992-ish??), very happy with it, although I had to pay a lot -- at that time there were very few options. I have steered several people to this store with no complaints, good prices. (I get no benefits from this recommendation.) They also have the chair...

    TradeTheMarkets DVDs: Futures Trading Seminar

    gaj: Thanks for the heads-up. I will do a reasonable amount of follow-up, mainly with Trade the Markets because it should be most useful there. But I can probably sell it to an ET member for a reasonable price well before I get to the end of that process.

    TradeTheMarkets DVDs: Futures Trading Seminar

    Trade the Markets did indeed request that eBay remove the listing, citing copyright violations. I have sent them and eBay the following and I'm going to follow up so they are clear about it. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt until this is resolved. First sale doctrine...

    Why do you read ET?

    I think ET would be vastly improved if the moderators would enforce the current rules more strictly. Even if they just enforced "keep on topic" then a whole lot of profanity and name-calling would disappear. Or if they could forcibly separate certain contributors by imposing mutual ignores on...

    Use neighbor's unsecured WiFi as backup connection?

    Do any of you guys who are computer experts know whether or not a Verizon wireless card is secure? It is impossible to get a straight answer out of Verizon. But it seems that at least part of the transmission is through the airwaves, and thus could be vulnerable. For this reason I have always...

    What is considered a good rate? Emini's

    http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=84691&perpage=6&pagenumber=1 Most brokers will negotiate on fees if you are doing 50 rt/day. I know Infinity will, but I think their lowest rate at any volume is $3.95. Check TransAct's website. I have heard of some people getting...

    Why do folks reveal Profitable Strategies, are they NUTS?

    Answer #1: Jack Schwager: "You mentioned that you've shared your trading methods with other traders. Aren't you concerned that revealing your approach could destroy its effectiveness as other people start to use it?" Linda Bradford Raschke: "I truly feel that I could give away all my...

    Trading and Dating

    I don't think anyone will take advice from a writer whose column is filled with spelling and grammar errors, while she advises readers to "use correct grammar." The constant spelling and grammar errors on ET are one thing, since these posts are written in haste and meant to be casual. But a...

    Trading and Dating

    I really hesitate to publicize strategies for trading -- I mean dating -- on ET, because if everyone uses them they will stop working. So this is a secret just for those of you reading this thread instead of watching the Super Bowl (keep it to yourself): Read some romance novels to learn...

    Filing a tax return for K-1

    Do yourself a favor and hire a CPA to do your taxes. The money you spend in tax prep fees will almost always save you that much in taxes. The tax preparation fees are deductible. At the very least get yourself some decent tax-prep software such as TurboTax or TaxCut. If you are...

    $1 million lottery ticket for sale

    The easiest one is in Excel. Just open up a blank spreadsheet, choose Insert, Formula, PV, and it explains to you what each item means and how to insert your assumptions. FYI: the present value of a stream of 20 annual payments of $50K each, where the payment is made at the beginning of the...
