Very nice, thanks for posting

I had the same feeling as you. I made a couple bucks short YM this morning, out now. Good luck to you.

That's my point. Something is wrong with this picture. Howard Dean was also an "internet" candidate, and in my opinion was also torpedoed by the media. I think the MSM is really threatened by blogs/internet to the degree that they will work against a candidate just because they have a net...

Its hysterical how much support RP gets online, but he barely moves the needle in the polls or in the MSM. Its like there's 2 different worlds out there. The MSM makes barely a mention of him, but if you read the new media internet, RP is all over the place. Why is there such a HUGE divide?

Similar to Steve Blass Disease? (google it)

nice trades! What signals did you use to go short? I think the oil market still wants to punish the "top pickers" at this point.

Why does it bother you so much to have messages in the wrong category? Is this an issue with you in other areas of your life? :D :D :D

I'd like trading it, I've been looking for something to trade at night. It trades in HKD though, right? What are the margin requirements on IB in $? Thanks

First of all- good luck! Hope it works out for you. What career are you coming from? I would seriously consider looking at futures, YM and ES are a good place to start. Very liquid, low margin requirements.

What is the IB symbol for HSI? When I try "HSI" it is quoted in Hong Kong dollars and says that I have to subscribe to an additional data service.

"I for one, am sick of this new collective society. In the old days if you conquer some other nation or land you get the spoils. Whatever it might be." Would you feel the same way if you were born into a country with a much smaller army? How have you contributed to conquering? Maybe just...

" My grandfather once said to me, Mark, sell what everyone is buying; buy what no one wants and you will be a success. Well, Mark D Cook has sold this stock market. I will buy but it will be when the S&P futures is below 1100. I am the lone wolf of bearishness."...

Yeah, but their new president is HOT. That's gotta count for SOMETHING?

You can also buy some DIG (moves 2x the change in crude) if you want to get your feet wet, without opening a futures acct. (Or buy some DUG if you think crude will fall)

What are the best markets for someone on the east coast to trade at night 6pm-12am?

Thanks- do you have a Mac? I have a PC with a 802.11b network in my house. My goal is to get an ibook and have it work seamlessly on that network. Does it work on the network I have? From what I've seen the only thing wrong with Macs is the price!

I'm seriously thinking of buying an iBook for my first foray into an Apple product. Does IB's TWS work OK on the Apple platform? Would you recommend an Apple to a "PC-lifer" ? Thanks in advance

Anyone have success fading opening moves at around 9:45 or so? I've been pretty successful at it, but do it "by the seat of my pants" from IB Mobile Trader from work. Generally 15 min into trading we get a nice reversal when there's a gap open, like days like today. Anyone do this with any...

Nice post, thanks for sharing it.
