    Terrorism

    I said the same thing to one of my co workers today. Hope I'm just wrong (wouldn't be the first time).

    dark pools of liquidity

    I would think they would welcome the liquidity. I work on a mutual fund trading desk where we use Pipeline and are very happy with it.

    Demo Accounts

    I have two accounts with IB now and went to their website, but didn't look too hard (really just lazy) for a demo account. I'll look again, thanks.

    Demo Accounts

    Can anyone direct me to brokers that offer a demo account for free? I have an intern that would like to apply some ideas to a demo account that's a little more sophisticated than just using excel to track trades. Any and all suggestions appreciated.

    ER2 getting thinner...

    Summertime slowness. I trade a variety of markets (including the ER2) and noticed this last summer, especially after July 4. I doubt it's the beginning of a trend, just something that happens this time of year due to vacations, etc.

    Towerstream

    Thanks for the response, I'll contact Speakeasy, but do you have any idea how quickly Speakeasy can get installed? One of our problems is we are being told 2 months by one provider, which doesn't work as we need to be up and running by the end of July.

    Towerstream

    Is anyone in Chicago familiar with this service? Any good / bad stories? I'm working with a start up and we are considering using this service instead of a T-1 line. Wanted any feedback from traders that have used it in the past. All help greatly appreciated!

    The Year is half done. Grade yourself.

    I'm up 30.77% for the year, but really pulled it out of my a** in June with a 17% month. Coincidentally, June's the first month I was able to trade every single day and follow all my rules. My goal is for 100% for the year, so I'm behind, but content. Hopefully less of 'life' will get in the...

    Stock Correlations

    I haven't traded pairs in a while, but used impactopia in the past. I usually throw that out when people ask for resources on correlations. Thanks for the heads up that it isn't too useful anymore.

    Month codes for futures

    My first job on the floor was as a runner (a loooong time ago), I was told the following reasoning behind the letters that are used - Letters that could appear as numbers are avoided. F is January for "First Month" and then it proceeds from there.

    CFA 2007 June

    I came under the old 7 year rule and did have to reregister to take level III when I failed. All reregistering involved was paying the registration fee again, I didn't have to start over at Level I again. That's where the confusion is, reregistering isn't starting over, it's just paying the...

    CFA 2007 June

    You just have to pay an extra fee, like signing up again. I've been asked this question before, as some people think there is a time limit to complete the exam. Directly from the CFA Website - Is there a time limit for candidates to complete all three levels of exam in the CFA Program...
