    Deflation-stealth in '08 shows face in '10

    shorting everything is one way. have to be careful though to not get leveraged cause the market can grind up and stop you out and then collapse. in my opinion, CAD and AUD are the most overvalued currencies right now. conservatively you want to own USD and Yen. to protect against bank...

    I always buy at the top!

    best advice. all the action and duping takes place at the lows and highs. rarely is the top/bottom put in until there is one last dupe swipe to break the highs/lows. this is the hardest area to trade but beginners and pikers are always obsessed with trading it. I suspect part of it is for the...

    Do Americans still have any financial privacy?

    haha if ONLY it were that easy. isn't there a "law" where you have to pay taxes for 10 years after renouncing citizenship if you did it for tax reasons?

    Laser Nasdaq-on-close key

    thank you for that esq. that is what I was looking for. unfortunately I'm a bit of an idiot and it's not IOC orders that I seek but IO or "imbalance only" orders. MOC and LOC on nasdaq are only accepted until 3:50PM and then IO orders are required. I figured out how to program an IO order...

    Laser Nasdaq-on-close key

    Thank you for your help. I'm having a bit of trouble implementing your advice though. Where in the laser platform can I find the "type" pulldown? Also, where do I indicate that my route is "island"? Thanks again.

    This crisis means the end of bullsh*t college and university degrees?

    tuition fees are probably the biggest bubble of all time. a lot of universities are going to go bankrupt when tuition fees collapse. those that survive will be much cheaper, except for the few elite schools.

    Reverse brain-drain - West no more a greener pasture?

    that's a puff piece. the truth is the "permit raj" while much improved compared to the past is still stifling and can in no way be compared to the freedom that still exists in america. below is why indians do not want to return to india...

    hey HFT scum, yeah, you. Watch this

    the main benefit is to expose HFT and leave them nowhere to hide with their infuriatingly cowardly justifications. if you argue against subpennying they say price improvement. if you say, no more two tiered system they no longer have an argument. so it is more of a strategic position to debate...

    hey HFT scum, yeah, you. Watch this

    like many others you are misconstruing the argument. the amount of profit is irrelevant. I don't care if they subpenny by the hundredth or by the billionth of the cent. the point is some people are allowed to do it while others aren't. the problem is the two tiered system.

    hey HFT scum, yeah, you. Watch this

    for someone who has demonstrated knowledge of the issues you are being remarkably disingenuous. if saving the retail investor money by subpennying is so important then why stop there? why not let everyone do it? the more people allowed to subpenny the more main street will save. we don't need...

    hey HFT scum, yeah, you. Watch this

    that's it right there. allow everyone to subpenny or don't allow anyone. the solution is remarkably smiple. when I curse the very existence of HFT it's just subpennying I'm referring to. if HFT can make trillions of dollars w/o subpennying and front running then more power to them. and if they...

    The 99ers...long term unemployed

    Brodeur said she has quietly started looking for jobs in the restaurant industry. Before going into office work, she worked as a waitress while raising her three kids, and she also briefly owned a restaurant. But her husband has said that she is too old, and has come too far, for that kind...

    hey HFT scum, yeah, you. Watch this

    it is astonishing how hard it is to get filled. even with a 2k position on MSFT you can't get filled. the other day I was waiting on the bid and everyone got filled/pulled except for me. my tiny 2k share position was holding up the bid and no one would hit me. finally the algos swooped back in...

    Canada Q1 growth most in a decade - 6.1% - 2x USA growth

    exactly right about needing the immigrants. in fact, I would say that the entre real estate market, and in turn much of the economy, is underpinned by immigrant demand.
