And let's not forget the lenders. Perhaps the markets will be feeling nostalgic tomorrow and the lending sector, once again, becomes the outlet for investor aggression.

Down 5 after hours. Homebuilders will likely get hammered in tomorrow's trading. Should provide enough volatility for the active trader. Perhaps the markets as a whole will suffer in response... http://money.cnn.com/2007/03/27/news/companies/beazer.reut/index.htm?source=yahoo_quote

Actually, it's white collar if you succeed, and no collar if you fail. :D

http://www.atlastrading.net/ I don't have any "real" knowledge about this firm outside of what has already been posted on it here at EliteTrader. You should be able to find all the info you need by reading through the following search function...

Again, you have to ask your employer whether you can continue trading, regardless of the instrument. The company you work for will most likely ask for a recent statement from your broker. They will then contact the broker and add themselves to the account as an "interested party." The...

Only your employer can answer this question. Considering that you'll be dealing with mutual funds (and I assume you're trading stocks), there shouldn't be a conflict of interest. Regardless, your trading account will be monitored by your employer if they do allow you to continue trading...

Are you considering a vacation? I hear Fallujah is pretty nice this time of year. Perfect for falafel and sunbathing. Watch your step though. Those IEDs can be quite the nuisance. :D

Thanks for the replies. After posting, I learned that IB allows trading in these futures. I'm not quite ready to trade them, but it's a very intriguing instrument. Still, anything with such negligible volume sets off warning bells in my head. CS

I'm not sure about 401k specifically, but many retirement plans allow unpenalized withdrawals for first-time home buyers. Also, a house can be considered an investment so other retirement plans allow for such purchases. Obviously, you'll need to discuss this matter with a professional, perhaps...

Is anyone here trading or familiar with housing futures? Any info you have, including a good futures brokerage that allows trading in housing futures would be helpful. I apologize if I posted this in the wrong place. I'm new to futures and, to this point, my trading experience is limited to...

Additionally, a negative close today would mark the fifth consecutive "down day" for BRCM, although 7 is arguably the magic number. http://biz.yahoo.com/tm/070126/15384.html

32.09 low on 3/5/2007.

Check out a 6 week chart on BRCM. Could be a profitable setup...

Up early with a negative finish. I figure overseas traders will have had more time to scrutinize the fed's comments, which hardly justified the rally we saw here today. But then again, when the bulls are loose, logic be damned...

13900? Wake up! This baby's heading to 20K by June! Back me up stock_chaf3r. When will the bears learn. Good economy = $$. Bad economy = $$$. That's why trading is so easy. All you need is a $1.50 and the brain of a donkey, and you too can become a millionaire! Here's my PROVEN...

But then, this rally seems severely misguided to me. It's BULLshit, really.

If so, I wouldn't call it a correction. More like a bull on a coffee break.

The best indication we'll get from the fed is not their words, but the effort required to issue those words while maintaining a straight face. I'll be looking for sweat, nervous twitching and severe bouts of diarrhea. Trading is a dirty job. :D

Second that...

Do they actually discriminate on the basis of an applicant's age, or are you assuming they do so? If they do, then YES, that's BULLSHIT!
