They can only find out about your record if either of the following happens: 1. You tell them. 2. They check. There is no reason to assume that #2 is true. Plenty of places are too lazy to check. As for #1, you'll have to decide for yourself what to do.

jprad, Yes, I should have read more carefully. My apologies.

Not sure if this is generally true, but here's my little slice of life: I have one of these loans, on a small commercial building. When I got the loan, all they wanted was some basic info about the property and a one-page net worth statement, which I don't think they verified, since they could...

trackstar, I have been wondering about that--the shorter time frames. Please tell me more about your thoughts along those lines.

Just some thoughts.... I do not mean to be unhelpful, but: nobody can teach you how to trade. You must teach yourself. Trade a little, and read a lot. There are only so many different mistakes you can make. After you have made them all, studied each error, and learned how to avoid...

Commodity Trader, I did this, except in the reverse order from you. Now, keep in mind this is only one person's opinion. I worked 90-100 hr. weeks for 20 years, made a bunch of money, and quit. Then I took a much easier, more pleasant, more socially redeeming but less lucrative job...

Just curious: How do you know you want to daytrade? Are you sure you don't want to position trade, swing trade...??

Nice graphic, thank you.

If we are destroying ourselves, it's our own fault. I refer to the rude, sophomoric and sometimes venomous posts that can hijack an otherwise great thread. People who write these need attention. I wish everyone would just ignore them, ignore them, ignore them! Instead they respond, sometimes...

If you will send me your e-mail addresses I will arrange something in Bellevue. Waiting for people to surf back to this forum is too slow. I will NOT use your personal information for any purpose other than to communicate about meeting together, and I'm not selling anything. Mary...

I'm wondering if anyone has read this, and what you thought of it. I have begun implementing some of these strategies.

Leap and the net will appear (old Zen saying) meaning: you can't play it too safe--you have to take a few chances in life

I work for a company that services biotechs. We are not allowed to own stock in our clients. One client, who claims their stock price was manipulated, has asked the SEC to investigate. We have been informed, by my company, that, at SEC's request, my company has given the names, addresses and...

I'm sure this is a really dumb question, but so much water has gone under the bridge that I can't recall the time sequence. Did B of A take TARP $ before or after the M&L "forced" merger? I can't stand Ken Lewis. I feel like Delilah. Someone bring me his head on a gold plate.

Maybe the OP has a cash account and not a margin account, in which case-- would any broker allow any spreads to be traded unless they are European style?

While I love the humor in your statement, I must respectfully disagree with its content. I have found McMillan's books, especially the big one, to be extremely well written and readable. But they are not beginner books. Mark's Options for Rookies is the first good beginner book I have seen...

I use some very simple TA--moving averages, mostly. Why don't some of us meet for coffee and see if we have anything in common? Is Bellevue reasonably central for you? Maybe something near where the freeways cross?

I'm curious about the OP's question too, since I have some silver trades on now. Perhaps gold and silver have different industrial uses? As for the above, what does that mean? Our government will confiscate any damn thing it wants, I think. They change their "rules" all the time. Nothing...

limitdown, Truer thread was never spoken. It's all lies out of governments, our own and everyone else's. I suppose the answer here depends on one's time frame. I have no idea what the short term behavior of crude price will do, but long term, it's surely a buy. What a wonderful...

Ok, the women are weighing here. First, I agree that Cramer is a joke as a stock picker--I'm not defending him. That said, Jon Stewart is definitely NOT attractive. Even if he were, his venom would render him unattractive. I'll take Bob Pisani, but would settle for Rick Santelli...
