Bullfighter, Give yourself a pat on the back bud:) You did a lot of things right. First, you did not do the big sin of CHASING stocks! Next one day does not make a trend! Everyone wants the market to go up....lets hope that it does....that means that there is going to be...

TRDRMAX, I've been using Quicken Home and Business and Turbo Tax Deluxe. I am not really satisfied with either. I trade through IB and quicken does not handle the downloads especially well as regards shorts etc. I hear Green Trader (?) is pretty good. Next I don't know how...

TNTNEO, Thanks for your reply:) ....here is a couple of more questions for you guys. 1. If you made money last year you are required to make estimated taxes per quarter the following year based upon what you made last year. Right?..........soooooooo......what if this year...

Tradrmac, When it comes to taxes .... I am dumb, dumb, dumb. How about this scenario? You have elected Mark to Market and during the first quarter you: Make $1500 on MSFT Make $ 800 on MSFT Make $ 700 on MSFT $3000 Total x 15 percent = $450 You lose $150 on...

I suggest emailing Don Bright because he is in the business and may know someone or something that can help you. I am guessing that even though the firm went under, they still are required by law to maintain records for a certain amount of time. I would further guess that because that there was...

Dustin, Is it possible that they were bought out...or a portion of there accounts were transfered? If so....to whom?.....check with them. email Don Bright....I'll bet he can help. If you do find out please post it, so we can learn what you had to go through....best of...

I agree...volume for an intraday trade can be one of the most misleading indicators there is. I use it mostly for setups. That is, mainly with support and resistance with monthly, weekly and daily charts. I use it to determine if there is an increase or decrease of buyers in the stock. Intraday...

Quicken is so messed up, that there is only one way to enter your transactions correctly....and that is one at a time...forget automatic download because it isn't gonna work...and if it does...you'll spend the rest of your time justifying everything and correcting how it interprets short...

I highly recommed Medveds QuoteTracker:)

What a dream!!!!.....IB the cheapest and best broker to try and make a living with and Medveds' Quotetracker...the cheapest and best charting software available for free....Ib needs Quotetracker, with no charting of their own...what a combination they would make!....looks like they sure would...

You asked if there were any curveballs out there?....how about this?....how well do you know the Nas 100 stocks? Do you know them inside and out? How they react to different events? Do you break them down to just one or two and play them or do you watch em all?...as regards your question, I...

Every thing and everybody gets used by deceitful people...that includes this web site...take a look at all the hipe we get here...this site has gone from a good exchange of ideas to almost complete commercialization...just about at any point in time anymore, someone stops by here and drops us a...

Tony, In your book you said something like this...if your going to enter into a trade, pretend that you had to explain to the whole world why you did it...it went something like that. I see that you are a man of your own words....thanks:)

Baron, the pop up thing and desk top idea is a great idea.

Tony, I understand your method on this one...makes sense to me...but there is something about that spread that just doesn't seem to ring right for me...must be I just have it drilled into my head not to touch a stock with so large a spread...kinda like hope...it doesn't belong in my...

Tony, I understand...I have those feeling myself sometimes...hope it goes well for you:)

Tony, What was your deciding factor in overruling the 55 cent spread?:)

Ok, Here goes nothing....the other day I caught a blip on the news about cisco...the futures were up....I checked CSCO pre market activity immediately after the news and sure enough the stock was going up...people were buying...I have done this enough times to know that I needed to watch...

Zentrader, Thanks for that bit of humor:D

Tony, I'd be interested in seeing you at the one in NYC...also...in seeing many of the members of Elite Trader...Baron etc....will be watching for your updates for exact time and places.:)
