    Mortgage Insurers?

    They must be making a boatload of money because half the ads on the radio these days here are some guy screaming at the top of his lungs, "REFINANCE NOW, CLOSING COSTS ARE FOR SUCKERS, COME ON FOLKS IT IS THE BIGGEST NO BRAINER IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD. REDUCE YOUR PAYMENTS, PAY OFF HIGH...

    Mortgage Insurers?

    Short NCEN it's not down much yet -.95 and they have the biggest exposure to the subprime loans of the entire group...market hasn't figured it out yet or little NCEN is up 300% for the year and the funds don't want to toss out one there beloved winners. Probably sells off in the afternoon. :-P

    Agreed, Todd Harrison was the best trader/writer that RM has seen. That RM website is still a bargin if you ask me even though Todd is greatly missed. For example, those herb greenberg articles can kill a stock when his column comes out and bashes something. 2-3 times a month that...

    Best software for a beginner?

    You may want to post what your specific needs are but TC 2000 is widely considered the best software for the price for End of Day data... so much so that it tends to dominate what most trading groups, investment clubs, etc. use from what I have seen. However if your needs are minimal you may...

    Gr8trade + Protrader: Good, Bad, Ugly?

    FWIW, Tradecast is for sale. Some propfirm should make them an offer. Sounds like Ameritrade would give it up for 30 cents on the dollar. Beats the hell out of what some firms are using. Doesn't Datek still own Watcher? Ameritrade merges, then unloads By Troy Wolverton Staff...

    Trade many stocks or a few

    I'm in total agreement with that above. Almost all the consistently profitable traders I have ever met trade either a small number of stocks they know well or they trade a small number of patterns that they are familure with. Both of those methods allow the trader to narrow their focus and in...

    Contracts/Instruments for Shorting Real Estate?

    Most of the Reits pay big fat dividends...so if you short them you have to pay those dividends if you stay short them. (something to keep in mind not only becuase you have to pay them but because those big yields help provide support when the stocks come in). Real estate is hard to figure...

    Wordon TC2000

    those CD rom video's that they themselves produce are the fastest way to get up to speed on it. I think they send out a free one....and the rest are like 20 bucks or something. (find someone to burn you a copy) :-P They are boring but there is no faster way to learn how to use the program.

    Gr8trade + Protrader: Good, Bad, Ugly?

    I’m no expert but I have used a few different platforms and here is my take. The best DAT platforms are easy to ascertain because they were bought out for big dollars. If you want to know which platforms are or at least were the best….follow the money. Who bought what? Lets see: Instinet...

    ISLD = CINN tommorow?

    Has anyone heard anything about this below? I heard it might cause problems for some software platforms. :-P Effective tomorrow, August 7,2002, Island will begin quoting its best bid and offer as the Cincinnati Stock Exchange. Rather than the quote appearing as ISLD, it will be...

    Software platform for Bright

    I asked redi+ help desk or whatever number I had to breakout the realized vs. unrealized profits and losses when I used the program. They said it would be available on the next update. (long time ago) They still haven't done that? My god....that would take a good programer....what 30...

    Trend Reflection system

    not sure....but I think the system might be based on this book http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/9997619730/qid=1028260805/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_1/103-3492537-0967811 if so....I read the above book...and if your end a trending market....the system would perform very well. (as wood a...

    Software platform for Bright

    I could not agree more. When I made the jump from retail to prop the trading platform was a huge hinderence for myself. Stupidly I had not even considered much the trading platform when I choose my first prop firm because I just assumed everyone stole from everybody (as far as trading...
