Hi waggie945, where do you trade from? You in Texas?

Why does anyone really care what others think? If you are married and your Wife is ok with it, who else are you concerned with pleasing. We did not become traders to cure the sick or shelter the homeless (though both are wonderful ambitions). We trade for many reasons, some personal, most...

I take the advice of another ET member, tell them you sell drugs to their children. ......or you can just pay cash

I think I will adopt RWK's way of answering what I do for a living. I have read Cramer for a long time. He always talked of jumping into and of the markets with 50k blocks of stock. Maybe some one should explain to him that he was nothing more than a really big and glorified day trader...

Don, do you have an opinion about this SEC decision concerning the Bullets and Conversions? I haven't finished reading the entire release, but doesn't sound good for us hyper-active scalping types. Just curious about your thoughts. TIA Bullet

I will check out AfTA, thanks!

Just wondering if we have many active equity traders in the Dallas/Plano area. I trade retail from home (not many options in Dallas that I know of).

I had purchased the nexland router, but have since returned it. The product is fine, but the switch from cable to dsl, when ever cable went down, took to long. I thought it would be instantaneous, it took up to a min or two. The product just did not do what I thought it was intended to do...
