there is usually a small time frame within which you can appeal the decision. for arca it costs $500. you have to get your firm to make the appeal. when you have a trade that is borderline a lot of it comes down to your firm. if they fight for you they can prevent a break or at least get it...

on arca the guideline is $1 out of market or 10%. if no one complains and it's even outside the guideline they will usually let it stand, as long as it's within reason. if the other party complains arca issues a ruling. they will usually let the trade stand if it's within the guidelines but...

25th Hour has a great trading scene and is a great movie.

retail trading out of the gate is a born to lose proposition. you have no experience and very little capital most likely. for all beginners prop trading is the way to go. you trade with the firm's money so losses and BP are non issues. within 6 months you can be making a living and within...

compare the logic and nuance of the deflation view with schiff and his hyperinflation talk. he keeps saying america is printing too much money therefore america equals zimbabwe. seriously, how clueless is this guy? hyperinflation ensues in third world countries becaues the governments...

he did put his money into bankrupt stocks. there are AT LEAST four companies that he strongly recommended to clients that are now bankrupt. and these were conservative clients who were looking for "wealth preservation". I don't think people fully grasp how bad schiff got massacred. there are...

schiff is being judged on the 6 month downturn because he keeps taking credit for calling it. if he is like every other market player then fine, we should judge on him on the long term, but he has made his name on calling this collapse and is behaving on television like he made a windfall when...

also schiff tries saying garbage like his stocks are now exploding. what a retard! his stocks collapsed the worst so of course in the bear market rally they will bounce strong. when a stock collapses from 20 to 2, a bounce to 4 is a 100% return. comparing him to buffet is ridiculous...

the overwhelming supreme irony about schiff is for a decade he kept calling everything a "bubble". when the bubble finally did burst it turned out he was by far and away the biggest beneficiary of this bubble. all his dividend paying foreign mining stocks were pumped up from the very easy credit...

Schiff is literally the biggest fraud of all time. He has scammed everyone into thinking that he called this collapse. If he correctly saw this coming why is his portfolio down 80%? Almost a quarter of the companies that he recommended are bankrupt! Does this sound like someone who knows what...

will the RMB ever break 6.80 against the USD? it's frittered away months in this tight little range. it was appreciating very steadily for a while and now it refuses to go higher.

hey, thanks for the replies. I bought the RMB at a currency converter place. I had a feeling I was being ripped off. oh well, I only bought a little bit. my plans are to hold physical possession of the fiat money and wait patiently for the revaluation to take place. the reason I don't want...

hello, I recently purchased some RMB for investment purposes and I got an exchange rate of 6.3 to 1 USD. The normal exchange rate for RMB is around 7 to 1. I'm wondering if this hefty premium is normal or not. Does anyone have any experience of buying RMB, and if so what was the exchange...

I wonder this as well. definitely appreciate you posting everything, though.

I read "den of thieves". it was entertaining but I found it heavily, heavily biased in favour of the government. if you get a chance, check this book out: Payback: The Conspiracy to Destroy Michael Milken and His Financial Revolution by Daniel R. Fischel "Junk-bond pioneer Michael...

billybob, wow. that's what I like to see.

in canada I'm pretty sure there is a huge waiting list for franchises. owning a tim hortons is akin to winning the lottery.

thanks that was informative. csco broke 20 today. did the february options expire today? I assume they did since it is the end of the month. but the market makers weren't holding 20 nearly as strong as they were yesterday. thanks again.

I completely agree with you. that is simply the greatest quote ever. anytime a trade goes wrong that is what I inevitably say. I also agree regarding boiler room. boiler room is a nice entertaining movie but when it starts getting compared to ggr or wall street then that is just wrong...
