It's easy, just go to the Journals section and see. As you will promptly discover, average annual return of an Elite Trader is between 400% and 1000%. If you return less than that, you have no right to be here, go to suckertraders.com

Not only in "the country" but in "the world" as well. Do they realize that US stock market is the largest casino in the world where millions of traders from all over the world spend their hard-earned money? That this industry is one of leading US export industries? And all this thanks to...

If you are NOT a US resident, you can open an account with canadian brokerage Questrade: - $2000 to open a margin account - 1 cent for share, minimum $5, maximum $10, + ECN - 3x margin (both intraday and overnight) - NO PDT RULE; daytrade as much as you want

No one precludes little china guy to rent a server at one of numerous US data centers and run his black boxes from there.

If I submit a long market order to buy 100-200 shares, I generally expect it to be filled within, say, 10 seconds in 99% cases. This is what usually happens and I think there are even rules about it. What about short market orders? What maximum execution time should I reasonably expect if i...

Ukrainian coders are the best. Seriously.

1) Banks REQUESTED visas for 21,800 workers. Number of visas they actually RECEIVED is much much less. Because total amount of H1B visas granted in a year is something like 50,000. But the big number looks better in headlines. 2) As the patriotism tsunami takes over the world, America will be...

Yeah, two years ago people were downloading 700 MB DivX movies. Now everyone wants bluray quality, that's 8000 MB and more. Network upgrades don't keep pace.

Yes, there is definitely a trend. Read - BUBBLE. The question is, how we short it?

Again, cap gains will INCREASE, because frequent traders on average LOSE money, compared to long term investors.

What's new? Russains professors have been predicting the "end of capitalism" for the last hundred years ;)

Yes, stay away from vista 64. It's for advanced users with large [memory] sticks.

Sorry for newbie question, but I tried to short several stocks, along the Timothy Sykes guidelines, and each time my orders were "disapproved" by the broker. I asked my broker, they mumbled something about NASDAQ threshold list, but these stocks are not on threshold list. Basically they said...

Are you US resident? If you are not, you can trade CFDs (please don't ask what it is - use google). There are CFDs on all liquid stocks in the world, as well as futures forex and pretty much everything. Spreads are usualy higher, but you can trade 24 hours, use up to x20 leverage, short anytime...

Windows 7 is Vista in new clothes. They realized that Vista is dead, marketing-wise, and decided to give it a new brand.

That would be a security disaster. Where I work, most people have passwords like "12345" (of course, written on a yellow note taped to the monitor). And there is nothing that can be done about it. Imagine all corporate secrets readily available to any hacker on the internet.

It depends on your marketing skills. I know one guy who's got to manage serious money based only on (unaudited) simulation results. He's got no degree but he's very good at talking :) You won't believe how stupid some rich people are.

Great idea. Additional modules needed: - an Open real time tick server. There used to be OpenTick but it closed down. Data vendors unjustifiably raise prices for tick data, while prices for hardware and bandwidth fall all the time, even in relation to exchange volumes. This can be cooperative...
