    I recall seeing Deutche Bank advertising summer internships in London.

    Database problem ?

    Hey, stop following me around and agreeing with me Turok! People will actually start believing you are part of my "crew" :)

    Chat room reviews

    I would endorse Turok's views of the integrity of RealityTrader. I had a trial membership there when they were just a day-trading service. I was impressed by their clear and un-hedged calls on entries and exits. They also had an emphasis on education and training rather than pure play-calling...

    Trading Methods & Techniques

    Brandon Presumably hostility in bulletin board forums is not the reason for quitting the on-line trading chatroom business. To my knowledge this is at least the second such operation you have quit. Would you care to elaborate on your reasons for getting out of this type of business and just...

    Database problem ?

    The message I get is "Failed to connect E:\ (some directory name)". Now it happens only monemtarily and then my message gets posted. This morning the delay was much longer. Not a big problem, obviously, but it is a bit confusing.

    For the true novices

    Don't try short term trading with the current Canadian brokers. Their fees are too high and their trading platforms are inadequate. Put your $500 into an index mutual fund with a low expense ratio (e.g. TD bank eFunds) Work hard and add as much as you can each month to build it up to a level...

    Trading Methods & Techniques

    He was only driven away if the groundrules of this forum are that commericial vendors are to be treated with kid-gloves and are not to be subject to pointed questions. My original post asked about the results of a trading setup that he posted, based on Fibonacci, and expressed scepticism...

    Database problem ?

    Twice recently I have received a message concerning the data base when attempting to post. I am not sure but it may have been unable to connect to the database. The first time I assumed my message had not been received and tried again. This resulted in a double post.

    Well WWatson, it's not an audited account statement, but I would have to be a rather sick and determined hoaxter to go to the trouble of fabricating it, particularly in advance of this discussion. Unfortunately I think I must have chucked last year's when I took it down off the wall. It had...

    "...or have some friction toward me, why ? " Well, it seems to me that the thread was started to draw attention to your commercial chat room. The message in question was the 7th or 8th by you with a link to your commercial chat room and seemed like a particularly trite and trivial...

    MD-Doc "Sorry to disagree with you. This means, you are either a newbie, or a trader who doesn't have all his FULL trading arsenal ! " No problem with disagreement, but no need to be disagreeable. You're wrong on both counts. I am not a newbie and I have enough of an arsenal, as I am...

    Never heard of a solid state gyro. Tell me more. How does it produce inertia?

    exits

    Traderkay, I do not fully understand the system you are describing, but why is it necessary to only exit at the close? I swing trade and my exit is often based on a stop. If the trade goes in my favour on the first day I draw a trendline on the 30 min chart. I then draw a parallel...

    Trading Methods & Techniques

    So Chartwiz, what is the trading record of your Fib. retracement method? %wins and losses, %gains and losses. Nice little pictures and concepts mean nothing, it's only results that count. Personally, I think Fibonacci numbers are just so much mumbo-jumbo. A retracement is right if it...

    Member Poll, How successful are we.

    The results of the poll will have little relevence, as it will not use a random sample. Those who are successful will be far more likely to respond than those who are not I think.

    The Segway

    According to my paper they have received confimation from city planners etc. that the device will be allowed to use sidewalks. And I thought rollerbladers, cyclists and skateboarders were enough to contend with.

    a plan

    "keep it simple, just trade QQQ for the moment. 100 shares. " I question if this is the right vehicle for a newcomer to trading. It automatically puts him up against a lot of the best traders in the business. I have been swingtrading for about 2 years and have never had a drawdown of...

    Day trading in Canada

    "Why all of a sudden all this interest in making it harder for Canadians to open or keep day trading accounts in the US? " Because many Canadian traders were fleeing Cnadian brokers for US brokers with better fees and technology. Major Canadian brokers are owned by the banks. The banks are...

    IB's Canadian Registration..............

    I had the pleasure tonight of telling a campaigner for Ernie Eves that he would be the last candidate for leader of the Ontario PC party that I would vote for. The reason being that he blew me off when he was Ontario Treasurer and I wrote to him to protest the way the OSC was depriving...

    IB's Canadian Registration..............

    Financial institutions are exempt from the free trade agreement. I suggest that anyone looking for IB to open here get in touch with their provincial regulators and ask what the delay is. If you don't get a satisfactory response give your provincial representative and Finance Minister an earful...
