    ABX Indices stuck @ lows

    What's the update now with the Fasb 157 changes? Any upticks? EDIT: I just checked. All of them, even the BBB are off the lows. Maybe all this inflation is starting to catch hold.

    Software Developer seeking to write trading app

    You would be better off bypassing the trading platform for a more targeted model. Develop indicators that people can buy, or some type of excel spreadsheet with the ability to send order signals to customer's brokerage accounts utilizing the indicators. Beginning traders love indicators and will...

    what is going on with TIF TIFFANY

    It's called a short squeeze. A lot of whales got greedy on the short side and are now stuck chasing stocks higher. The overall market is undergoing this process now. The true test of this rally is whether the longs are brave enough to squeeze the short sellers at ridiculously higher prices.

    A question for those of you who own blogs and websites

    You know where the money's at? You need to program esignal or tradestation indicators and rent them out monthly. Then have a website with a chat room and some sort of subscription service for the chat. The chat room has to have some additional data, some type of spreadsheet with an indicator...

    How long before you were fully automated?

    No one can have their computer trade for them and make money. This is a bullshit question. Computer algorithms don't have intuition, which is what really makes a trader from a wannabe. If you think you will be able to program an indicator that does everything for you, while you sit back and let...

    NYSE Chief: It is time to short the market...

    You have to think about why the Nyse cheif would come out with a comment like this. What are his motives? It sounds to me like he's short, or some of his whale friends are stuck short and need a sell off to unwind their losing positions. I think this market has caught a lot of shorts off guard...

    Why does the market defy rationality?

    The truth is, the banks are being given huge sums of free capital and lending it out at large spreads. They now have so much cash that they are buying up underpriced liquid assets. Where can you find the most liquidity? The stock market. Watch the dow roar to 10k within the next 2 months.

    Fed survey finds faint signs of hope

    The fed is watching the banks for signs of improvement. It's like the doctor saying you're getting better after recovering from pneumonia, while the cancer has spread to the brain.

    "Recession is just entering its most difficult phase.” Standard & Poor’s - 4/15/2009

    Things are about to get much worse. I personally know quite a few people that are about to go bankrupt and will not be able to pay their payments on anything by the end of the month. May is going to be the beginning of a summer from hell for the US economy. All that bailout money should have...

    Nationwide Tax Revolt Is Coming

    That's the problem with the two party system. They can just keep blaming eachother ad infinitum, since they're both really on the same side. They allow the dumb voters to express their anger at the party that is currently in office. The republicans run the national debt up, get voted out, then...

    Goldman Blew Out Earnings!!! Early Release!!!

    The federal funds rate at 0% is giving all the banks free fucking money. That panic in January was such a head fake. Banks are borrowing from the fed at 0 and lending at 5%. The yield curve is making life very easy for a banker. The problem is, they're not passing on their low rates to the...

    So the SEC fee basically tripled today?

    Damn! Some of these guys trade way too much. If you're trading a million plus shares a day, you should work for a market maker. It's worthless to risk your own capital, and pay commissions on that kind of volume. What the hell kind of trading is that anyway? It reminds me of the trading...

    AIG Was Responsible For The Banks' January & February Profitability

    Like I've been saying lately, AIG is a money laundering tool for the federal reserve to siphon tax backed debt from the treasury to the major world banks.
