    Is it possible to use HTML for API ??

    that's just treating html as an input file to feed into their engine for processing, which is pretty fucking retarded. You could just feed a text/csv file. html is static markup used to write pretty webpages, you need an object oriented language such as java/c++ to actually connect to the...

    In depth questions on credit spreads.

    well that's a mouthful. I execute in 2 strangles - long the wings first then short the gut. Seems to get filled faster that way in my experience, usually I am on mobile so need the fill asap and cant play around with the order. And if you doing short ic, just flip long the gut first then short...

    Margin Call movie - 4 stars - available on YouTube

    oh atticus :p i agree with you the technicals in the movie is absurd (comeon we all know that). But that's just an intro to get to the premises - which is to show the drama inside a large ib after finding out it's in deep shit (for whatever reason). Everyone got a chuckle out of the...

    Margin Call movie - 4 stars - available on YouTube

    heh atticus, this is just a movie not a documentary. If your expectation was anything different than we all need iq tests. Everyone knows the story is absurd (so is most hollywood dramas) but that doesnt mean it cant be enjoyable. I liked it /shrug

    Margin Call movie - 4 stars - available on YouTube

    good movie, it's much better than wallstreet 2. The simplification and hollywood dramatization didnt detract from the overall flow. Bring back memories, i remember when half the floor in my firm got let go, they didnt even let those guys go back to their desk to collect their belongings...

    Taking Apple (AAPL) short

    1 bad product release doesnt mean anything. And 4S still made record, att said they sold something crazy like 200k units in the first few days. Wait and see if there is a trend of mediocrity. Besides apple is so far ahead of the game right now in both tech and brand, they could just sit still...

    IB insufficient for more serious option trading

    just a correction, core java is designed to be backward compatible since the first version - build once run anywhere motto, and works well in that regards. the issue you see is valid but it's really due to the java swing components used to create the gui not the language itself. It's a shitty...

    The logic of shorting AMZN (as good as any)

    atticus! was hoping for some options analysis, did not expect a stock777 style explanation :p The item you linked will cost the seller 10% (~$100) to be sold by amazon, seller also has to pay for monthly storage cost. Amazon bulk shipping rate should be around $10 for this 7lb item. So...

    AAPL iphone 4s

    this was a big disappointment after a year of waiting and tim cooks' first announcement. it's basically the same phone but upgraded the hardware to be on par with the current android phones. Only thing even remotely interesting is that mini-watson computer software. ios5 will be good...

    What kind of communism is this?

    is any system that only caters to individuals sustainable? Where it takes 10 years and wasting hundreds of millions $$ just to get approval to start building a 2 mile tunnel, or a skyscraper? answer lies somewhere in the middle.
