You can't stop anyone from posting, that's Baron's privilege. You can however, use the ignore function to ignore their comments.

It's probably Tony.:D

All kidding aside. This is Hitmans thread, maybe we should consider giving it back to him before we reach a record amount of pages.

Where is this leading to Stockbroker. Before you know it there's going to be 2 year olds, then 3 year olds, then 4 year olds...and on..and on.... Where will it stop. :D

"...murray t turtle, whoever you are (hmmm...), you're not making a whole lot of sense..." hmmmmm..what are you trying to tell us Magna. I have given up trying to keep track of him but can always sense when he's around. :)

Scary thought Don. I'm working on a patch which will cover the photo's of you and your brother. I'll make it available for sale to all ET members. I'm gonna be rich.:D

Dustpuppy Are you saying that MM's shouldn't be able to post their Bids or Asks until exactly 9:30am? Turok is right, NOBODY can trade Nasdaq after 4pm, but they can post their Bids and Asks. You will see MM's post and pre market with any brokers L2. Makes you wonder what the IB rep is...

I'm sure many a newbie (thankfully not me as I learned about it before trading) has been caught offguard pre/post market and bought from an ECN at the ask thinking they could immediately flip it to a MM at a higher bid only to find that they couldn't. They then find to their horror that the...

"Day trades, not executions. The purchase and sale (in any order and any number of shares) of the same stock on the same day." Correct Voodoo, I did mean day trades. :)

"...Also, if you read the rule carefully you will notice that you are considered a "daytrader" if you make 4 or more executions per day for 4 Consecutive days. One could always work only 4 days at a time and then take a days vacation... " Stock You are considered a PDT if you make 4 or...

:) I prefer to call it the "Why The Hell Not" strategy. Aka "S**t, Why The Hell Did I Do That" strategy.

Nice trade Don. Would you be willing to share you're reasons for buying. It seemed like a pretty big "gamble" although in retrospect it was a great trade. I considered buying (gambling) when it was down near 30 cents but realized I have b***s the size of cherries.

Me Too. Gets just a tad annoying aghhhhhhhhhhh. :mad:

LOL Stockbroker Was printing these quotes from another source when I came across your post. Hope they help both of us today. PS Don't even bother responding to FIREHAWK aka TraderX etc..It just encourages him.

Coach. If trading smaller size, you may want to use IB as your broker. I use IB with a separate RTick feed and have saved a lot while trading small size during my learning curve. The interface takes a bit of getting used to, but gets easy to work with eventually. Order entry is a skill...

Yesterday Hitman dug himself out of a $2000 loss back to just a $1000 loss. It was a good fightback, but what if he had dug himself into a deeper hole. At what point do you say to yourself "I just don't have it today". There seems to be a fine line between having the confidence to continue...

Don I'm a bit slow to the party, (my timing has been off recently) but I would like to thank you for some excellent and very insightful posts recently, in this, and other threads. I was one of the people who criticized you and your firm earlier for your attitude towards amateur and Nasdaq...

Trade555 please dont take offense at this criticism however would it be possible for you to use a period full stop to any Brits in your writing as it makes it difficult to read your posts without having to reread and reread and reread to fully understand what you are trying to say i suspect...

I was wondering if some of the experienced traders would like to share their learning curve experiences in this thread. How long did it take to get to the stage where you realized that you would be able to trade for a living? What emotional stages did you go through? How many times did you...

Don Can you please explain what you mean by 'real' traders. I respect every trader whether they trade in an office or in their pyjamas, whether they trade NYSE, NASDAQ or Pork Bellies, whether they trade a $1000 account or a $1,000,000 account. I consider them all 'real'. The only traders...
