Re: payment. Of course I'll be paying. As for upside, that would be more of a partnership. Thus, the characteristics of the relationship would be much different. Re: platform, broker. I currently use thinkorswim. Since tos doesn't have auto trading, I have to go to another platform. I know...

Wondering if anyone has a good recommendation for an automated trading developer or development firm. I do not code myself, and I'd be looking for a firm to help with the research and development of the system. There are lots of hucksters of there, so if any of you guys have any tips for...

If this were a real person, the guy would know about wealth management. As to the guy, if you're going to flame, pick a better moniker.

+100 --- the rule of law is one of the fundamental things about society. Russia does not have the rule of law. The corruption is unthinkable by western standards, and that includes the US getting much more corrupt over the last 10-20 years. I've been to Russia and it's very sad. Beautiful...

I'm in the age group, and I can tell you the biggest problem is the lack of entry level jobs. Many of my friends can't get jobs in their chosen professions. And it's not jobs like art director; in many instances, it's normal entry level white collar jobs. Outside of health care, tech and a few...

This guy is flame, but my response: One, there already is a small tax with the SEC fee when you sell. The money goes to the SEC "monitoring" the capital markets, so we already pay taxes for the necessary services from the government, on top of income taxes, etc. Two, without traders, the...

I have to mostly agree with tenthousandmen. Most indicators are not worth it, or are only worth it if you know how to use them with the price action on the chart. TTM indicators are only so, so at best. Their squeeze one is basically Trix. If you look at a lot of stuff that ninjatrader is...

People like what works for them. There is no holy grail; only what works for you. Don't ever trade your real money till you are completely ready. I suggest getting a simulator and practice trading until you're consistently profitable and you feel confident. Most brokerage platforms have sim...

Ok, so you dumped your infrastructure argument, good. Now you're justifying out of wack compensation for public employees. So, while everyone else in society is getting their pay cut, public sector employees always deserve more, huh. They already get paid more than the private sector and they...

See this is when you know liberals are either stupid or intellectually dishonest. No one really is against infrastructure spending but...liberals! Remember all those shovel ready jobs that Obama promised; well he didn't remember. All the stimulus money went to public sector employee salaries...

I'm hoping that Paul Ryan would come out of a brokered convention. He's the most unifying candidate from the GOP and his message is not dependent on the economy.

Don't have the quote that you cited but some interesting comments. I've heard that Austin's tech scene has been losing momentum over the past couple of years, as evidenced by gowalla being beaten foursquare. It'll be very interesting if over the next five to ten years if NYC can get to parity...

Ever seen a sunset from the FL keys?

I would put Miami easily equal to a lot of California. And yes, there's a difference between a Mediterranean climate and a tropical one, but one thing's the same: the women in both look better than the ones making their way through snow.

It's funny you mentioned New York. I think if you go by taxes, NY/CA are both at the bottom, but for tech CA is number one and now NYC is number two and gaining fast. Still, outside of tech and other creative class industries, both CA and NY are contracting.

To the guys thinking about prop, a few things: (1) you're most likely not going to get better technology going with the prop firms you're talking about. Laser, Sterling, Lightspeed et al are not all that great. In many cases, you're going to get inferior technology than what you could get...

There's been a few threads on this already, so check those out as well. Definitely some overlap: both are analytical, both required patients and money management skills, both take a long time to get to a cash flow positive skill level. So while there's some basic overlap, there is no overlap in...

What you have to understand is Democrats and liberals don't care about the truth: they only care about perceptions. If the liberals can convince the American electorate that it's morning in America when the economy is the worse it's been in decades, what do they care. These people backstabbed...

Absolutely true that if you have a great and loyal gal, marriage is worth it. Marriage is also best for kids. But there are a number of guys on here who either have been off the market for a while or don't understand today's dating realities.

Where is Thatcher when you need her? The UK is stuck with Red Tory Cameron.
