    I'm done trading. I FAILED

    Like you, I almost failed in trading about 10 yrs ago. As a novice, I bought Iomega near the top, and lost a ton as it crashed back down to earth. I took some time off, but never gave up. Today, I am far wealthier than back then. I have no one to report to but myself. All thanks to...

    POLL: What was your best trade ever?

    YHOO, the day before it got added to S&P 500 in Dec 1999. The stock just went straight up all day till the end. I believe it went up about 100 pts. I just kept on buying and buying. So frigging unbelieveable.

    Goldman CEO Touts Firm's Risk-Management Prowess

    A few weeks after Dick Grasso was ousted as chairman of the New York Stock Exchange, I ran a hypothetical scenario by a senior media-relations executive at Goldman Sachs. “With Grasso gone,” I began, “does this not open the door for a Goldman takeover of the NYSE?” The flack laughed...

    Anyone using Scottrade?

    I used Scottrade for several years. As a day-trader, I had a lot of problems with Scottrade. They have costed me a ton of money. 1) Their website logged me out constantly. I had to log in multiple times during the day. Often when I sensed a good buying opportunity, I would miss it...

    What's after the Financials?

    None of the above. We are going to see an year end rally on the back of the two rate cuts. The current fear is way over-blown. Let the banks take their well-deserved losses.

    Jim Rogers is short US I-bank, housing

    Jim simply means China is more pro-business than Massachusetts. Do you know Massachusetts is famous for its 12% short term capital gains? I guess you're a dumb ass. :D

    Greenspan Confers `Irrational Exuberance' Mantle on China's Stock Markets

    He is getting hopelessly senile. He probably thinks he is the Fed Chairman of the entire world and his job is to pop all the bubbles whereever they may be. Someone should send him a big needle for his next birthday.

    Is IB completely down now and for more than 30 minutes!!!?

    How often does this kind of crap happen at IB? I was thinking about switching to IB. As a daytrader, this could cost me a lot of money. Low commission is not worth it if you can't trade.

    Thoughts on Fires and South. CA RE prices?

    For those who lose their homes to the fires, they gotta either buy or rent in the region if they want to keep their jobs. I think that's what the majority will do. A minority will huddle with relatives or leave the region.
