Are these guys still around?

I used it earlier in the year--up until March. I seem to remember having quote problems back then. I don't remember the specifics, but it was enough to make me close my brokerage account.

Has anyone ever used a voice recorder to track their thoughts as they're placing trades? I thought it might be a good idea to review it later to see where you're making mistakes. I imagine it's too time consuming to do it for more than a week or so. Plus it might get distracting having to hit...

I was looking at Briefing...On Sept 15, they registered for a sale of 3.3 million shares. It looks like it was around $30 bucks at the time. So they're selling $100 million dollars in stock, and their market cap (at that time) would have been about $300 million.

No news. Anyone got the dish on this one?

This thread is pretty much for my own benefit, just in case I ever consider going back with them after forgetting the issues I've had. First, frozen quotes. I was constantly distracted having to look at time and sales trying to figure out where the current trades were occurring because there...

Just got a letter today from CCS. I'll just quote part of it. On May 12, 2005, SAI Holdings, Inc., a subsidiary of Penson Worldwide Inc. reached an agreement to acquire Computer Clearing Services (CCS)...As a result of this acquisition, it is our intent to convert your account to Penson...

Have you used their platform? (Who is Jimmick?)

They're offering me a better price than on the website. Plus, I've had nothing but problems with Cyber. Not worth it.

I'm in the process of opening an account with them. Switching from Cyber. There have been other threads inquiring about them, but no one has responded. I'll try to update in a week or so. You need data from eSignal or DTNIQ with their software. In addition, I think the TopGun software is...

Does anyone know if Buffalo makes a good product? I looked for reviews but couldn't find any. I picked up a 125 high speed mode wireless cable/dsl router, model #WBR2-G54S.

Did anyone else get their trade busted after hours? There was someone selling a bunch of shares at $60, and the trades got busted. I just wonder if there was a rationale for busting the trades, or if someone with big bucks got preferential treatment.

I can read lips. :)

Actually it's CyberTrader. I've been alternating between Cyber and IB for a while. It has seemed to me that Cyber has given me inferior fills, but this is the first time I have actually gotten around to reviewing a questionable order routing in detail. It seems to me that IB will...

I would call tech support, but my service contract is up. I can't get any sound on my computer. In my 'Sounds and Multimedia Properties' box, under 'Sound Volume', there's the bar you can move from low to high, but I can't move it. 'Low' and 'High' are grayed out. I do have a sound card...

I figured it was my broker's smart execution algorythm. Looks like it's back to IB.

Yesterday I had a trade go wrong, and I talked to a brokerage rep. Can someone verify if what they told me is true? Here are the details. I attempted to sell 500 shares at 24.00. The entire 500 share order goes to a market maker who is on the inside bidding 200 shares at 24.14. He fills those...

I just realized it's the ecns that have the incorrect times. The market maker quote times are correct. Are your ecn quote times correct when you first load a stock?

Does anyone get the correct order times when they first enter a stock in level 2? When I enter a new stock, all the order times are the current time. So if it's 10:00, all the order times read 10:00. If I leave the symbol alone, the times will adjust as orders are refreshed or changed. If...

Just thought I'd bump this thread a year later. Is anyone using these guys? How's the software, order execution, etc.?
