Another issue with a 'dishonest' market which I think the US stock market has become is this... Say the current quote is 10000 shares bid x 10000 shares ask. Many times, as soon as I send a market order, the 10000 shares all of a sudden become 200-300 and prices change by 1-2 cents. And...

I don't believe you answered the question. What's wrong with sending a market order if there 'supposedly' are that many shares available on the bid? Are they given a chance to somehow run away? (Very often, yes). How/why are they allowed to get away without being obligated to commit to the...

I got news for you... Narrow/tight spreads only benefit short term traders. They are of practically no importance to *investors*. As a matter of fact, I'd rather trade a market where the average stock spread is 5 cents instead of 1 bs penny. At least the slimy scumbags known as HFT's...

There are different ways that can happen... If someone is selling a basket of 50+ stocks, & 1 or 2 of those stocks is way off, they might sell the whole basket at market without paying particular attention to which stock is now at 1 cent. Should be no problem in a normal market. The other...

So now you're advocating someone lie, tell an employer he's got a degree. Maybe you can get away with that bs if it's a car salesman job but a decent position will require a lot of verification. Many positions can cause untold $millions in damages to a company. So now, the thing to do...

Hahaha!! LOL! Try telling your next potential employer that you don't have an expensive college education/degree but gathered all the same knowledge & more studying everything on the internet. You'll be laughed out of the interview with the door slammed on your ass. What the hell are you...

What does US congress have to do with other *foreign* exchange traded products? Other than using a US index, it has nothing to do with US. It's domiciled in Ireland. The referenced etf will be priced in GBP, have little initial volume, thus a higher expense. What was the SPY's expense...

This etf will trade in the UK, not US. Listed in London.

Against what? US $ ? As if the US is in a whole lot better position! Short Euro / Long a commodity currency like Aus/Can $ or Norway Kr, would probably be better.

here's a Greece ETF traded on Euronext/Paris... http://www.euronext.com/trader/summarizedmarket/stocks-2783-EN-FR0010405431.html?selectedMep=1

Obviously you don't understand how markets function... If Ford closes at $9.00 Friday and Sunday night, it's trading at $10 in tokyo or someone is bidding $10.50 in London, why should I sell it to you at $9.00 on Monday morning??? So you can sell it to those people for an immediate profit...

That's one of those "in-house" indicators. Computed by those who can and not for the public to obtain through esignal or dtn. btw, this is where data vendors could really make some good coin, charging a bit extra for calculating these & other types of breadth indexes but the morons don't seem...

Zimbabwe. Unlimited upside!

Just donate your $2K to Goodwill/Salvation Army. You'll get more out of that.

Kathy Lien is a fraud. So are the other FX pretenders. These people make money opening accounts for newbies, selling books & "advice", publicity, etc, etc. NOT from trading!

I tried version 11 on an 8 monitor setup alonside version 10. My impression is that it's the right direction for esignal to go in, but this thing needs a LOT of work before it's of any use. My video cards which work fine with version 10.5 could not handle this platform. I uninstalled it...

Leave their "fancy technology" in place...just introduce a transaction tax high enough to force them to hold positions overnight. If a trader, HFT or otherwise never holds any trades overnight, then, they are of no value to the market. From the large overnight gaps in the last few years...

HFT=bloodsucking leeches. Ought to be banned either through transaction tax, rules or other barriers. They say they "provide liquidity" by taking the other side of investors' trades; of course they do, that's the only way to skim money off the table! That's what these assholes do, make...

I was running TWS on a USB stick (encrypted) a few months back and it ran fine. But Java was installed on the pc hard disk. I haven't tried without java installed on the hard drive.

The American style black boxes/HFT's/leeches are not as prevalent there. At least not yet.
