Whatever currency they rolled off the printing press in April did not include Geithners signature. I believe that the earliest notes bearing TG's John Hancock were issued in late 2009. SORRY, I DO NOT BELIEVE YOU. I routinely ask my bank teller for Geithner Bills in any denomination, all...

That 900 billion figure was taken from an NPR article which was dated early 2009 so my guess is that its more now - a lot more.

Good question; I believe that over 900 billion ($20 bills and above) is currently in circulation, not including counterfeit money - approx $3,000 per US citizen. Can't speak for you but I have more than my fair share. However the kicker is that least 50% of that amount resides outside these...

12000 coming up sometime this year, maybe 15000 or above by 2011. My opinion based solely on one observation, namely that there is a sh*tload of cash on the sidelines still looking for a faithful mistress and the longer the market goes up the prettier she looks.

Look, you can bad mouth the UK as much as you want but claiming that they will never win the World Cup again is a bit much. England can play football with the best. Its just that they're not very good scoring from penalties ;-)

Are other IB users exeriencing the same connectivity issues that I'm having with IB? I have a high speed cable internet connection and run the minimum of progs on my XP yet often (once a week at least) I'm bumped offline and the IB trading platform appears to be the culprit. My ping rate for...

If the object of the exercise is to MAKE MONEY then set a target and quit when you've reached it. Rinse and repeat. Why hang around a computer monitor longer than necessary...its bad for your eyes and maybe even your sanity.

My mistake..I was averaging their quarterly (not monthly) returns without adding the principal. They charge $1195 per month - I would think that's a flat fee that's inclusive of commissions and any other fees. How does one verify the accuracy of their returns? <22% a month gross profit...

Received a pitch (via the INO people) from TigerRock to subscribe to their automated trading system. Apparently their day trading signals are generated by piggybacking the major investment banks's program trading. Sounds plausible enough and their results (if you can believe their claims)are...

Its what politicians do when they're in trouble. ala..I'm glad you asked me that question which translated means "How the crap do I get out of this one?" It fools no one and they're all fools, caught red handed with their pants around their ankles and trying desperately to preserve what's...

Good, sensible diet and exercise are always helpful however it's the emotional countenance thats most important. Those that I've known that survived cancer or a serious illness generally had, or likely developed, an attitude of fearlessness towards life. Bottom line, imo, if you can quit...

Why are so many posters, including the moderator, so abusive to stock trad3r? If you don't agree with what he says then surely you can disagree in a civil manner or ignore. Whats so hard about that? <The trend is up. what the freak are you talking about? On what time frame? Your an idiot!>

If I had a say in where my taxes went (ha, there's a novelty) this is what I'd do with the Big 3 if they want to spend money. 1) End the gravy train - ie get rid of those CEO clowns who showed up in Washington in their private jets to pitch for a bailout (when's the last time you went to your...

I read in Stratfor that the 700 billion bailout plan represents 5% of the GDP of the US. Is it true that the UK Govt is spending 50% of its GDP to bolster their banking system. If that is the case - and I'd like confirmation from someone in the know - then it doesn't take a rocket scientist...

The only surprise I can see is a deadlocked election - and that appears unlikely. For better or worse, it looks like everyone is expecting an OB victory.

1) We close above the lowest swing high (S&P in four digits) 2) We retest the lowest low (10/27 I believe). 3a) If we close below that low then look out below - SELL 3b) We succesfully retest the bottom and then close above the previous swing high. 4) BUY - Then I'll start nibbling and...

Anyone had any experience with this software and/or the books/courses he publishes? TIA

My experience of IB tech support is that they've actually improved over the years. Courteous and helpful. Unfortunately, when they can't help you and you are forced to use their email tech support for non urgent issues they don't even send you an acknowledgment. I've been waiting two days and...

Second try to post the chart..

First off - thanx to HG particularly and also to many others for sharing their knowledge so generously. I stumbled onto this thread yesterday and already have devoured thirty odd pages. I've always leaned towards basic PA - the KISS method always sees to work best for me and now I'm...
