Have the old Samsung SyncMaster's, was going to upgrade to the Dell 19" LCD's for around $500 or so apiece. Are these 191T's really that much better?

I'll state the obvious that 777 was talking about that I discovered. Liquidity in SPY actually got worse when they decided to pull its live market from ECN venders. It was actually an OK electronic market on Island and Instinet. Unfortunately, since it was invented by the AMEX, in a rare 'screw...

George W. went to both Yale and Harvard. This attractive young lady that wrote the story has tried to wreck Bush on several occasions. She's the one that 'exposed' his grades from Yale in '99.

This is a subliminal liberal knock at Conservative's from the U.S.'s left-wing front (NYT). It mentions Bush if you go tho the link you gave us. It associates the Bush family, among others, with Hitler. That's the message it tries to send out.

Please don't put this liberal anti-U.S. Bush-bashing crap on Elite Trader.

This isn't education in trading. If you had the skills you would have been snapped up by a bulge bracket firm. Speaking of bulge bracket firms, Goldman Sachs has 20 propriety traders, just 20!! So, please tell me what drives you to continue trading when the inevitable fact is that you will not...

Unless they changed the rule this week, the specialist has 30 seconds to honor an electronic order. Then it has the exact same precedence as an order on the book or in the crowd. It may not seem like that to you watching your screen, but those are the rules. A long sale has NO greater...

There were no electronic orders to speak of back then. The DOT was around probably going back to the late '80's but it was created and used primarily for retail orders. Only the large brokerage houses had the systems. Instinet came around in about 1989 and wasn't really used by traders until the...

Are you in Baghdad Qdz? If its anything like last time, he's going to come on at 10.15pm to tell us its over! :D

Bush to address nation @ 10.15pm

Isn't he Seinfeld's goofy neighbor?:confused:

The newspapers are always going to have the news that you read yesterday. The reason that I read the WSJ everyday still is not to see what I read in real-time yesterday. The execution traders that have the big orders in GE, MSFT, INTC etc... do not watch RSI and MACD and DMI. They'll set what...

If confronted with a decision: a) a clear mind. surrounded with family and friends. making $20,000 a year. or b) $5,000,000 a year. alone...inability to be a social being I'd pick choice (A) everytime. No second guessing. Wasn't this a movie? Oh yeah, The Family Man - Nicholas...

Kav, 75% (Irish and Italian) of the employees of the NYSE have something in common with one another but it would appear not with you - they're Catholic! Those are ashes from Ash Wednesday.

All technicals point to it. Unfortunately, the only 'technical' thing this market seems to care about is who's pointing their missiles at who! - US Recon pilot over North Korea was overheard by those Mig pilots saying; "Hmmm, this looks like a nice place for a parking lot!"

About to sign up for Esignal. Can't you get DJ and Reuters realtime for added fee? Was thinking about a Bloomberg because I know it very well, but its not $1200 its $1740.00 plus exchange and news feeds for the first terminal. $2000+ a month - this guy's a genious talking so many into paying...

This was my first of this series of Expo's so I can't compare. Thought it was great. Everything I wanted to see, I saw. As far as the crowd looking older, yes it was easier for the last few years of the 90's. Trading was easier and everyone made $. Good traders made lots of $! I'd say that this...

Profitseer, Funny is right. One of the first guys I sat with in the mid-eighties used to be full of all the old Wall Street cliches. I always joked about them in later years repeating them to trainees with the purpose of being more annoying than helpful: Why do markets go up? - "more buyers then...

Do you commit any of the 7 Deadly Trading Sins? 1) Too Much Size 2) Lifting Stops 3) Chasing 4) Jumping the Gun/Overtrading 5) Adding to Losers 6) Counter-Trend 7) Revenge Trading -Courtesy of Slapshot from another thread I've read a lot of the books about...

Can't be bothered reading a new book by him. I have never seen anyone else that I can both wholeheartedly agree on some principles and theories and yet still have serious reservations about other thoughts they might have. Can't get by the arm-flexing caginess that is Victor. Sorry but the 1st...
