wtf she has eight pussies ?

I read recently DJ has absolutely no intentions to remove GM

No NYSE is working out a rule change. They sure don't want to lose all that FNM, AIG, GM like business

stock_trad3r IQ: 90 - 105 market IQ: 500 - 1000 or what ? :D

A serious question here What is the sum of all private mortgages / credits handed out during 1997 and 2007 in the US and UK housing market. The whole figure can't be much higher (if that high), that makes me ask where the money is actually sinking in.

Does anyone know another ETF or Index that correlates well or represents the Case Shiller Index?

I'd say CME/CBoT is already actively lobbying against these ETFs. Many traders have shifted into stocks and that's one of the major reasons they lose so much vol. A fair step would be, they lower their fees accross the boards. But they don't want to be fair. Everyone knows that.

http://www.spiegel.de/wirtschaft/0,1518,601800,00.html (text in german language) It basically says "Spiegel" has exclusive information that Deutsche Bank plans to cease ALL prop trading operations. :eek: :eek:

Not only in the US. Also in Europe, prices for many products were even raised since cmdty prices imploded. Interesting: Prices for products which are shipped over long distances (fruit conserves) were raised by 100% during crude peak and are now not lowered by a cent.

Any info if this gets lifted after March 31 or is this "forever" (it seems like)

Hey everyone, Everybody knows, when trading UK stocks through the LSE with some form of private account (e.g. IB), you pay a hefty stamp tax (.5 %). How is it with Chi-X ? Is the tax applied or is this a way to trade UK stocks tax-free ? (Buy @Chi-X + Sell @Chi-X) And what if you buy...

OMG To all serious traders with insight: I think it's time to stop filling the pockets of this site's operators by providing good content (like Daal) and let them provide the advertising. This is not about content at all, it's only about idiots and their millions of clicks. This...

The new Fed "alternative measures": Fully automated bot programs that (try to) create mass buy hysteria by auto-posting in internet forums.

I'm pretty sure your system is compromised. If it is: Don't try to "clean" it. Do a clean re-format and re-install. I recommend Vista x64. XP32 is too vulnerable. Check out VirtualPC for creating a virtual machine.

tom, a nice find but I may have to spoil the theory: the problem is that the google trend chart for "stock market" is optimized afterwards to what happened (crash). If you try similar terms (e.g. "investing", "dow jones"), each will come up with a very different time/# series and it's easy...

Antivirus packages are close to become obsolete. Thinking they will protect you from really dangerous exploits (e.g. new MPack versions) is pure nonsense. AV vendors are months (years?) behind the best malware coders. My proposal: Get rid of AV bullshit and transfer your internet...

Could not agree more. In fact, this site is a waste of time. I'm only around to read sometimes reasonable topics about IB and some econ-/social related stuff.

Anybody already tried ESignal through TWS ? From my understanding it would be possible to use TWS as an API proxy for ESignal, their API is more than crappy. Issues ? Symbols same as IB servers directly ? Java CPU useage with many ticks ? Regards,

IB probably added new products (today) causing the issue. If this Quotetrecker thing does not have (multiplier; primary exchange) implemented, it is not correctly programmed to IB's specs.
