    Taking 1million to zero in "n" months.

    You cant short in an IRA, Shorting requires Type 2 and IRA's are only qualified to be Type 1 Cash. I call BS.

    7th advertiser pulls out of Limbaugh's show

    Viagra should not be paid for by insurance money either. Why should we pay for middle aged men whose old lady can't get him hard anymore.

    SEC Probes Electronic Exchange and Trading Firm Affiliations

    Fees on order cancellations that's bullshit. I cancel quite a bit of orders during the trading days, so now I will be penalized for it by some dumb tax. How is hft hurting people? I have been making money fine and I am not an hft trader.
