Rigel, I am 38. Your post is a keen insight into human nature. This is a little off topic, but I can count on the fingers of one hand traders I respect...and even some of them have tried to sell me something. Sometimes I wonder if traders and brokers really have a passion for good trading...

I hope IB will restore the full functionality of the REDI ECN soon. This is really a no brainer, and it would provide an adequate substitute for when the BEST and BEST_ECN executions are being delayed. http://www.siliconinvestor.com/stocktalk/msg.gsp?msgid=16169864

Another issue I have is IB does not provide quotes for the SOES Route. I don't understand why. With no quotes you don't have the actual price that you can buy or sell at displayed on the screen for the SOES route.

Thank you very much. Please post any information related to this problem that is discovered. Regards, Alex

I am having a problem with both the BEST and SOES routes on IB since the full implementation of Supersoes on Monday. I have entered three separate Market Sell orders, two with BEST and one with SOES, to hit the bid when the stocks were selling fast. In all three instances, the orders did not...

DELL, ORCL, SUNW Securities to be Phased Into SuperSoes on Thursday, July 26, 2001; http://www.nasdaqtrader.com/trader/news/2001/headtraderalerts/hta2001-115.stm

Supersoes won't necessarily make trading Nasdaq stocks any easier. In fact it might be harder at first, because stocks will probably become more volatile. The difference will be that you can execute your stop loss quicker and take profits faster. Another difference might be is if you hesitate in...

Bill, you forgot to mention Sammy Chua, LOL. Didn't Daytrader's USA try to groom him into some kind of trading guru? The last time I saw that kind of promotion it was at a record company. What was the deal with that anyway? Just Curious, Alex

If you network your computers together, You can use a program like Drive Image by Powerquest or Norton's Ghost. This will allow you to back up your entire drive to one "Image" file on that same drive. Then you can move this file over the network to your other computer. I am not sure about...

Yes.

I-View, I-Scan, and I-Screen, which are all part of the same scanner offered by Realitytrader, (those names are ridiculous) has a few more features than the last version of M-Watch that I used. M-watch may have been upgraded since then. One feature I liked that M-Watch didn't have was color...

I've heard that Windows XP will only let you install the operating system once per the licensing agreement. If for some reason you need to re-install the operating system...or if you want to install it on another computer...you need to call Microsoft to get an additional license. WinXP also has...
