    Historical Daily Market News?

    Hey guys, is there a site that archives daily market news/recaps of the day? Yahoo Finance, Bloomberg.com, etc. usually have a market recap article after 4 pm that summarizes morning economic releases and price action of the day. Are these stored on the net for access? Is there a way...

    Flipping is Back? : House Flippers in U.S. Crowd Courthouse Steps in Hunt for Deals

    But if flippers (bargain hunters) can renovate and sell to first time home buyers, does that mean the market is coming back or is it just a 'dead cat bounce'? That's what I was trying to get at from posting the article.

    IIRC last time they raised discount was Feb 18th, announced right after RTH and ES dropped 8 pts; shrugged it off and rallied back overnight (maybe asia/eu data helped, dont remember)

    An Order Cancellation Tax on HFT Would Curtail Deceptive Quoting

    Noticed the same thing around 11:58, flashing size on 66.50 bid or 1 tick below bid. For a couple seconds there, 6000 resting orders, abnormal for time of day/previous price action/s&r level. Guessing it was a 'flipper' strategy, flashing the bid size there to temporarily halt the break of the...

    Bull Put spreads

    Don't know if there is an upcoming announcement for ITMN but you should know the dates, even the speculation dates on the Yahoo message boards, like the back of your hand. Only thing is, it'll probably open gap down giving no time to hedge if it's a failed trial or whathaveyou. Again, MDVN.

    Bull Put spreads

    Well, if you are here long enough you will eventually hear "nickels in front of a steamroller" and other comments about selling otm premie. But if you have some sort of edge picking stocks that will not fall off the cliff/at least be stable, you'll win. Careful with those biotechs though...

    ADP didn't provide anything for downside catalyst. Chain Store Sales, Jobless Claims, Factory Orders, Pending Home Sales tomorrow, and then Employment on Friday. One of these has to have a negative 'surprise' or we need a comment out of the EU about Greece/PIIGS debt. Washington financial...
