    Where to get a journal?

    Excel is probably the best for customizing to your needs depending on how detailed or generic you want your trade analysis to be.

    news

    I'm going to have to revert to my days as a consultant and say 'it depends'. Here's my take. Depending on what your time horizon is and how much influence that news has will determine the profitability of trading in the direction of the move. If you have a good source / are quick to get it...

    777's So Cal Surf and Trade Report

    Is that Just for Men 'Beard and Body'? If so why not use it in your hair too? :D

    Best and Worst CNBC Commercials

    Couldn't agree more. Do they really think people care about how Jeanie saved f**king Christmas, Gautum doesn't know how to use complicated graphics software, or how Giani went from PC and UNIX to Mac OS? If their stock price has any correlation to their TV ads, I'll be surprised if they can...

    How's IB been lately?

    Haven't done futures. I'm a happy and profitable stock and option guy. Don't have any intention of wandering into the world of futures just yet, but will keep your suggestion under consideration if/when I do. Thanks gnome.

    How's IB been lately?

    It works well. Execution and reliability better than any other retail that I've used (I've been through quite a few). If you want a list of shortable stocks go to the website and in the left hand column under the heading "Trading Information" there is an item "Shortable Stocks" that you can...

    Market Spooked?

    I just woke up (3 hours later than usual for me) and was wondering WTF was going on with the futures. Globex looked pretty healthy when I went to bed at midnight. Oh well.

    Help? IB and after hours trading

    If they only took 2, I think you only got charged 2 cents if the order stays in there. This kind of odd lot thing happens quite a lot in thin markets. I personally have never been charged a minimum if I eventually get rid of all of the shares even if they get transacted at different times. I...

    Shorted 1000 QQQ at 25

    IMHO it's going to be a struggle. We're probably more poised to go sideways. Add into the mix the fact that we held (by a little bit) 20.72, and the number of Oct and Nov 20 and 21 puts out there. Having thought that out I guess I should pop out my puts. :eek:

    Spanking the monkey POLL

    These are both words of great wisdom. LOL! Getting married might work to. I haven't done the NPV on it yet though nor do I have any practical experience. Perhaps rs7 can enlighten us... :D

    Sex and trading stress

    Who's getting f**cked? I thought we were all just trying to consistently get a little here and a little there, while waiting for the occasional fantastic mind-blowing experience, without having to pay too much to make it all happen. (that applies both in the bedroom and at the desk... at...
