    AlgoDeal

    It doesn't seem like it is a terrible idea from the POV of a "user". The front office documentation, lawyers, IT - I am sure all add up to quite a bit of cash. When does "Algodeal" launch? I see on the website it says beta. Or are you currently running submitted strategies?

    Does anyone still trade individual equities? + other ideas

    Has anyone taken the time to create their own "Sector SPDR's" composed of a few equities from each sector? I was wondering if purchasing stocks in a small basket such as this would have any benefit at all versus just buying and selling the ETF's? All I can think of is extra commissions and...

    Short ES Right Now?

    That is interesting. Where did you come up with that statistic? My idea would have been blown out of the water regardless. Definitely did not think we would top yesterday's highs this morning / afternoon.

    Short ES Right Now?

    Does anyone else think right now is a great moment to short ES? I am feeling 1290 at some point tomorrow.

    If you were going to short Silver, would you do it now (if not already broke) ?

    Yeah, that idea would have fallen apart. I was looking at a quarterly candle chart here of Silver and I gotta say it looks pretty damn bullish. I must admit shorting Silver was a terrible call.

    Marriage, just don't

    Pretty good summation.

    If you were going to short Silver, would you do it now (if not already broke) ?

    I think that is probably why they keep raising the minimum maintenance requirement. I am sure 5% of people were blowing up every 15 minutes.

    can a disk with win7 on it be moved to another pc?

    You mean like to repair? Are you sure you aren't talking about the CD that comes from the manufacturer that has all your drivers on it? You should just be able to go to the manufacturers website and find your model to download the applicable drivers for the current operating system.

    If you were going to short Silver, would you do it now (if not already broke) ?

    I would say it is Joe Six Pack who is buying Silver. Physical Silver and not the ETF. In the beginning of this thread I said whomever bought was much smarter than I. IMO, which is contrary to yours, I am thinking that most of this is fueled by square participation.

    If you were going to short Silver, would you do it now (if not already broke) ?

    Could be witnessing the real decoupling of Silver / Gold if Silver decides to take off. There are just so many squares though purchasing silver it makes you want to be 100% contrarian. No offense to anyone who is holding, you are obviously much smarter than I. But, you have to admit, there...

    If you were going to short Silver, would you do it now (if not already broke) ?

    With buy stop @ the high's? At the risk of sounding redundant, it possibly could be the top of a downward channel? http://finviz.com/futures_charts.ashx?t=SI&p=w1

    Alltime high on Nasdaq

    I really do think you are going to be proven very wrong over the coming years. Of course you will (hopefully) be long stopped out before this happens. We are going way up. IMO we could come back and retest these levels at some point, but I doubt you are going to get an opportunity to get...

    Alltime high on Nasdaq

    If it ever goes public I am guessing it will be one of the most famous short side trades in history. The better question is how much pain will you have to inflict in the process? With the benefit of hindsight in the future I hope this doesn't sound foolish. Social media garbage has a shelf...

    Alltime high on Nasdaq

    I think we triple up in qqqq from approx. 50 currently to 150 in the next decade or so. 1999 - 2010 was a massive pennant consolidation that is going to move us much higher I believe.

    A call for Nasdaq 3000 in 2011 and a call for help

    Unfortunately, the only way I can trade it is through re-balancing. Currently, do not have any other means. If I had no restrictions and a sizable amount of risk capital I would start averaging into NQ now during this pullback. GL

    A call for Nasdaq 3000 in 2011 and a call for help

    I'm very bullish as well on the q's. I am thinking mid to high 70's within 12-18 months. As far as best way to trade it.. IMO that is best left to yourself. GL

    Sierra Chart vs. QuoteTracker vs. Other

    I have a lot of experience with Sierra. I don't with others so my opinion probably doesn't mean much. Regardless, Sierra can pretty much let you accomplish whatever it is you need. They have a worksheet system for trading that lets you make automated trading strategies from an "Excel Style"...

    Bye-bye Silver

    Still looks good. Even in the face of dollar weakness.
