I am not a computer person at all so I don't really know what I am talking about, but there was an interesting article on the geeks to go website about this transaction. These are not finance people but computer people and they had kind of an interesting take on it. They attributed it to...

Hello Great journal lescor, I found it over the weekend and have read the enitire thread. One of my problems with RTM trading has always been a news source that is timely and accurate. I was wondering if you would mind sharing what you use for intraday news . THankyou

It is a crazy world the Alberta Oil Patch. A roughneck can make 10K a month if he works two consecutive 2 week hitches, (12 hour days) and if he is in a camp he'll have 0 for living expenses.

I just started subscribing to the online version of Barrons. I was using the stock screener today looking for some opportunites and decided to do a screen by Profit Margins. When I do a screen for stocks with Profit Margins above 20% VNO comes up with a PM of 63% which seems ridiculous. When I...

Even though I have become more and more anti-guru that does not mean there are not things that I learned from them. Larry Williams. My first exposure to futures speculating. His emphasis on stops and money management kept me from blowing up over the years. Mark Cook. Attended his seminar...

There are many ways to legitimize your results. Trading rooms do not want to do that. They would be empty within a week. Until you have actually tried to follow a room, trade for trade and mirror the results that they are advertising you have no idea how impossible it really is. I am not saying...

The problem is the big ol US border and laws that govern crossing it with cattle. During the original BSE outbreak the border was completely closed to Canadian cattle, they dropped to almost nothing while the US futures went up(that would not have been a fun hedge). The newest wrinkle on this...

That reminds of the late chess Grandmaster Tony Miles who was writing book reviews for the British Chess magazine Kingpin. Anyways he was asked to review Unorthodox Chess Openings by Eric Schiller. I will reprint his complete review below Utter Crap Classic Tony Miles

I think what you are seeing (particularily with the potash/fertilizer stocks) was an almost internet style push to levels that were unsustainable. At the current price of fertilizer, even the high price of commodities is not enough for farmers to make all that much. Farmers will start...

Briefing had news of BNI being added to UBS's short term sell list at 6:54 EST. (I dont trade BNI as an opening stock but I do trade it as a pair so it is on my watchlist.) Sorry see you already had response. Not technically an upgrade or downgrade.. Just added to short term sell list

I wrote the 7 last year and I don't recall bona fide being in any of the questions.

Great thread. Nitro would you mind to give book titles (or a different link) to your recomendations that that are links to synctrading.com? I can't seem to get those links (the amazon ones are fine) to work at all. Thanks

I was curious about this as well, the nyse opening print was 59.5 not 59.43.

Don, I noticed in your post today that yesterday you cancelled LOW and that you missed cancelling HD. I had a loss in HD ( I don't trade LOW but I assume I would've had it in if it was on my list ) and noticed that a few regular posters did as well. I couldn't find any news on either company and...

Canada is just as much of a mess. LOL. I just don't understand the hatred towards GWB and how his policies are all that different from any other US President.

First I am not an American so I am a little removed from the situation there(from Canada) and although I am certainly no fan of Bush I do not understand the level of animosity towards him. The reality of it is, Presidents love war, the feeling of power that comes from weilding the most powerful...

Has anybody run the Apple 30" cinema monitor? It's quite abit more than the Dell 30 I was looking at and was wondering if there was any differnce between the two or are you paying for apple insignia?

I started trading in 1995. after receiving some LW literature in the mail. ( I was a little more gullible back then LOL) I think it was the British America set that he was selling back then. Anyways I had mixed results for about a year and a half.In 1997 I heard he had a bond only hotline but...

I think this is Humphrey Neill , "Tape Reading and Market Tactics"

Curious Don if you realized KMB had earnings this am?
