    Where should I look for this economic information?

    Actually, "bumping" a thread on an online forum and putting the word "bump" in the text field is simply a courtesy and not subject to the same scrutiny as normal prose. Perhaps you can actually post something of substance instead of posting like a child. Clearly one can't walk into a library...

    trading firms in NY

    Search "prop firms" through Elite Trader's search function and you will get more results than you can shake a stick at... Search for "prop" in subject lines first before searching for the term in entire posts. You will weed out results.

    How many of you make over 100k/day regularly day trading?

    Worst response ever. Not only is your comment not helpful, it is stated in the form of a question! Seriously though, if you find anything after some digging please post! :)

    Where should I look for this economic information?

    I am trying to pull together some information about the subprime mess, how much money the U.S. invests in various countries, and what has been the total global circulation of the Euro versus the US Dollar over the past 10 years. I have access to a Bloomberg terminal which is always a big...

    Can I be a good trader?

    ET is funny sometimes. We have virtually zero information about this person's trading yet many feel compelled to offer advice on why he should trade. lol

    Is my broker trustworthy? (FXCM)

    Wait a sec, that doesn't make much sense. At most it would have moved maybe 250 pips, right? $700,000/250pips=$2800 per pip I am assuming he was in front of the comp when he had to take his wife to the hospital, no? And wouldn't he know of a major news event coming up that day? If...

    Can I be a good trader?

    Um, ok...spell it out. What part of his post made you think he should be one? (this isn't to say that he should or should not be and I would love to see more info posted by the thread's originator.)

    Can I be a good trader?

    What makes you think this person should or should not be a trader? The original poster has yet to give us any idea how he is making the money. To give a meaningful answer I think it is best to find out how much this person has at risk at one time, what type of strategy, and how much initial...

    Forex with IB

    I use them and have never had a problem. I can only state my personal experience. And yes, the negative spread does happen and happened last just a few days ago on EURUSD at -1.9 I only posted that as evidence of their pricing model and even went so far as to say that trading purely off...
