    some clarification on IB before i open an acct:

    "so if im understanding you correctly, datafeed is mandatory for every account therefore i will not be able to choose not to subscribe? 30 trades is not too much, taking into consideration a minimum of $1 per trade, thats only 15 full trades" Yes, you have to have level 1 bundle...

    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    "Reading a little bit (and maybe there is/are someone here more knowledgeable than I) but to target day traders and firms that daytrade while exempting pensions and 401k which may employ similar trading activities, doesn't this fall under a violation of the Constitution in re: Bills of...

    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    Once again, do NOT underestimate these globalist fascists. Sure, some of those countries understand the folly and *currently* oppose this tax, but that could change. Folks, freedom, as always is never more than one generation from a memory, remember that! Why do not people get that each time...

    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    I have little doubt that b*tch supports this insane rape, but at least we could have fulll examination by the other side with guests that can DETAIL the illogic of the arguments and the expose the fact that LITTLE GUYS are the first to be gutted in such a plan. Big boys will get their...

    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    AGAIN, Erin B is talking up this insanity. The guest who supports denies reality, disses day traders and argues it won't hurt the little guy. Yes it will. It will wipe out traders with less than 1 million in total capital to make day trades with over night. It will WIDEN not lessen the gap...

    HC Bill... Any Chance Senate Dillie-Dallies For A Year?

    A true example of civics. Once the wags can vote the Treasury into their pocket, everyone or at least a majority, becomes nine year olds clamoring after the ice cream truck... I think this points to why socialist progressives (Democrats and some wishy washy Repubs) over time have won the...

    some clarification on IB before i open an acct:

    It is not any more 10 USD per month in inactivity fees. It is double that, at 20 USD now. If you do not make 30 USD per month in commissions, they ding you this inactivity fee. IB also is charging a new fee over CBOE. Frankly, unless you trade with a certain 30 USD per month in commissions...

    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    She just did the piece, and noted "all the upset e-mails" and grinned. It is as if she just plans more and more pro-tax interviews as forums for that nitwit Petey the taxing congressman in response to the cries over the suggestion of implementing such a tax. She also just tends to put...

    When is IB going to compete with Velocity and Zoom on commissions, people will start

    I do not expect IB to "care" about me. :) I am just saying their package is far less attractive lately with such hidden (and now increased 100%) fees. Their bigger short sell list is one redeeming feature. Nobody keeping anything resembling a day trading level of cash reserves with them...

    When is IB going to compete with Velocity and Zoom on commissions, people will start

    While of course it *is* intended for active traders, IB since about July 2009 has doubled their inactivity fees, from 10 per month to 20 USD. On principle, there should be zero inactivity fees, much less an increase to practically equal the monthly commission minimum of 30 USD. IB says...

    Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

    Given your comments hinting at aspects of the EMT, while noting the difficulty of taking money from other traders, it is amazing people are not able to get the crux of your arguments. It is also fair and correct to keep it a secret, for reasons already discussed and a host of others less...

    Why Is The Obvious Not So Obvious?

    NYSEstocks: The chart(s) are not market based, but are noise randomly, (like most market specific moves short term) like a Cardiologist/Radiologist medical chart. It is thrown in as a zinger to prove a point about the tendency of humans to "see" "patterns" in things like stock charts...
