    Good thing you read the chart where the dates were from 2000 then, huh?! I think bylow was stating that these people have no insight, and even less accountability.

    Do you stop from a loss from the top?

    In day trading (or perhaps even longer term trading) do you stop if you lose a certain amount from the top? Example: Your stop limit for the day is -200$ You make profits of 400$ and keep trading, you then whittle down your profits to 200$; do you stop trading for that day?

    Universal Symbol/Security/Instrument Id?

    Very interesting and pretty well-thought out. But why do you need 8 bits for determining the type of expiration? Non expiring objects could just have their expirations nulled out, while expiring options could just have regular expiration sets. Why do you need to categorize what type of object...

    Sitting comfortably while doing daytrading?

    Definately get a chair that compliments your desk. My chair right now is too high and my desk is too low, constantly hitting armrests on the bottom of the desk and it's annoying and uncomfortable. Tuning your monitor correctly for gamma/brightness also helped me a bit for eyestrain.

    Hosting ala' Go Daddy

    Actually, this slipped my mind, you will need to host your live feeds from YOUR local computer, so you will need a semi-fast upload (depending on your audience size) on your local computer. Then you can host a link to your local feed on your website.

    A real solution that can buy us the time we need...

    I was thinking cheap(er) labor, 30k/40k jobs. Nothing special but enough to survive if someone was in a pinch and needed a job. These people wouldn't be concerned with 401k, more like how they are going to survive the next 1-2 years. Employers would be credited at tax time?(I don't really...
