    the OFFER is lower than the BID

    Somebody was flashing an ask lower than the bid AH awhile back. It was something like .30 or .40 lower than the bid. It was extremely annoying at the time so I put in a buy order at that price. Anyway, I got hit and sold it a second or so later for a nice profit.

    Specialists scrapping for every penny

    It ticks me off when the specialist trades through my ask. It happened to me again today. The stock was trading a penny above my offer and the ask was showing 2 cents above that. It was if my ask did not exist. Needless to say I never got hit and it started trading down after that. :mad:

    Medved Quotetracker or Sierra

    I'm a paid subscriber, too, and I have been using Quotetracker for over a year now. Jerry, I thought this would be a good time to say Thanks to you. Without a question, Quotetracker is the best thing going. I recommend it to anyone serious about trading-- you want be disappointed. Good...

    Thy Will Be Done

    Question: If there is no God, then where did the original concept of God come from? That within itself proves there has to be a God.

    Tony Oz Newsletter

    Yea, where is Tony? I signed up for that newsletter back in 2002--never heard a word. He replied to an email I sent him in January 2003, and I've not heard from him since. Hey, Tony, we luv ya' man, it would be nice if you'd let us know how you're doing these days. I still consider you my...

    Worst President in US history?

    I got this from another board and found it to be very interesting. To all the Bush bashers on ET, these statistics really put it in perspective. Note the part about Clinton. Worst president in U.S. history? The following appeared in the local paper in Ft. Worth, TX. as a letter to...

    stock market ready to crack and crash

    The problem with your thinking is that it is not realistic.

    stock market ready to crack and crash

    You're right, I do have the choice to respect my President, and I do choose to do that. I am thankful for that freedom. I don't know what country you're from, but I have been to other countries where they don't have the freedom as we do in America. I hope you are not in one of those...

    stock market ready to crack and crash

    I agree with you on Iraq, however, our congress was behind him, and so was most of the people I talked to just before we went to Iraq. It was a miscalculation, but only time wise. Sooner or later we would've had to deal with Saddam. I'm just glad we have done it before he was able to get...

    stock market ready to crack and crash

    Geopolitics has everything to do with the market; thus the fall today. I've been here for a while and I don't recall seeing a moderator that is a clown; I think they do their jobs very well. The only clown I see is you, and if you don't like ET and you've lost your respect for this board, why...

    stock market ready to crack and crash

    Unfortunately, it is not; but just think of what it would have been if Gore had got in. 911 would have happened regardless who became president. I just can't imagine Gore being able to deal with it. He probably would have said OBL was being too snippy. It's true that a lot of people don't...

    Tight stops vs. loose stops vs. no stops

    Yea, right. I lost 20K doing what you just said. I still have my boots on; but it was a long time before I could buy another pair. Pabst, if you're doing what you just said, it will eventually catch up with you. When it does, will you come back and tell us how it feels?-- that is if you...

    Is 56 winners out of 64 total positions a good trading record?

    Yea, right... tell that to the guy living under the bridge or a homeless person sleeping in the cold. I'm sure they'll get a good laugh. You don't have to look far to find hurting people living the hard cold facts of life, and it certainly is not funny. Only people like you that are so...

    recognizing a loser before a stop out

    Basically, what I hear you saying with this post is that you don't know what you're doing. Once a stop is set you NEVER move it; the only exception is to attach a trailing stop once you're in the money. If you set the stop in the right place at the beginning of the trade, instead of some...

    IB Sticky

    I had a problem this morning right after the open with the bid and ask being crossed on three of the stocks I was trading. Didn't know what was going on. Not only did they cross they traded through .20 or more above the ask. Never had that to happen on TWS before. It finally cleared up...

    PDT question?

    I'm also confused about your statement, Don; why would anyone want to embrace a rule that goes against everything that capitalism stands for? Live with it -- if we are forced to-- but, certainly not embrace.:confused:

    chipper338, There were a couple of guys awhile back that did a hook up in Raleigh. Haven't seen them post in a while. You might want to do a NC hook up search. I, too, would like to meet some traders in the Winston-Salem/ Greensboro area. PM if you live in this area. Good Trading.
