    Dell Coupon

    I've bought a few computers and a bunch of peripherals from them. I'll bet if you create a user ID and password and don't even buy anything you'll get them. I think they're mostly from the small business side of things, so create your account there if given an option.

    Psychology: Professional Trader, or professional gambler?

    Thanks for the explanation. I have a question. If the odds are based "solely on how much money has been wagered ... by the betting public", how can the first person who makes a bet make the bet? Don't initial odds have to be set by the house? Thanks.

    Best trading books that nobody has heard of ?

    A decent and relatively unknown book is "Elements of Successful Trading" by Robert Rotella. It covers a lot of ground, most of it with not enough depth for experienced traders, but the sections on money management and psychology are pretty good.

    Cost-effective Level II data-feed

    I didn't think it was any better than the yahoo streamer you get for $9.95 a month. This is going back 18 months, so things may be different now. Also, I did not give Level II a thorough test on money.net. I saw your post about them and wanted to put a little caveat emptor out there based...

    Cost-effective Level II data-feed

    I'd be careful with money.net. Unless they have changed, there is no way to cancel except for contacting your credit card company and changing your billing/contact info on their website so they can't continue to get at your credit card. I signed up for a free 10 day trial, tried to cancel...

    statistics, standard deviation

    Don't standard deviations apply only to normal distributions? I didn't think equity prices can be categorized as falling within a normal distribution.

    Dell Coupon

    I have bought a number of Dells in the past and receive email coupons regularly. Here is one for 10% off your entire purchase which I will not be using. It expires 6/13 and I suspect will be good for the first person who uses it only: 8D0FA545771B

    Can a Graduate Degree from Oxford U help me get a salaried position in trading?

    Since you are new on here, the thing to do would've been to watch and read and see how things work for a while before posting. Posting to every forum, regardless of whether you are new or not, is obnoxious and constitutes you as a troll.

    IB Is VERY Slow Cashing Checks...

    I am pretty sure there is no hold time on bank checks. But I have never tried them. I stick with wiring the money for $16.

    Best new trading book I've read this year...

    He talks about Mandelbrot and fractals, Barbasi and power laws, and a discussion about how if the market is really random, we may never be able to prove it. Like I said, it doesn't give trading recipes or suggestions, but many topics for further thinking. Another efficient market joke from...

    The MyTrack SDK is quite good and has an active Yahoo Group dedicated to its support. Good luck.

    Best new trading book I've read this year...

    I just got back from a weeklong vacation, during which time I read "A Mathematician Plays the Stock Market", by John Allen Paulos, cover to cover. It is brand new. It doesn't give specific techniques for trading, but definitely gives a lot of different things to think about. I enjoyed it...
