Caught somebody with his hand in the cookie jar didn't you?:D

sorry about that typo in my earlier post. It was supposed to be Drock not Brock.

Red Ink and Brock. What you guys are saying is so true. I've been getting hammered by this stock. IMO these programs are also able to identify a retail entry and exit. Don't be fooled by all that volume. It is just tape painting.

Why thank you for reinforcing what I already know. You've been very helpful with your foresight.

Any opinions? I personally find it much more difficult these days to daytrade this stock.

MBT - steve: I feel MB trading should put together its own software package comprising all the analytical tools a trader needs. This is one area where this brokerage falls short of expectations. It is cumbersome to say the least when you have to integrate the navigator with other software...

You can't access your account at MB during the weekends as far as I know. Log in to PFS their clearing house if you need info about your account.

The problem with restoring is if you restore your pc going back to a particular date say for example July 10, 2006 and then later on try to restore again to a date earlier than July 10, 2006 it won't work. However you can restore to a date that falls after July 10, 2006. I am talking about...

MMs decide when a trend begins and ends along with a lot of other things. Plain and simple. There could be a strong trend in a particular direction and the moment you make an entry it will turn around and trend in the opposite direction. MMs can identify a retail entry and exit. This is not...

What you are saying is your entry point is your stop loss point in any trade. You can't have a stop loss point below your entry point. Am I right in making this assumption in regards to your trading rule?

The Nasdaq and to a relatively lesser degree the NYSE are not what they are supposed to be. It is not supply and demand in its purest form. To put it crudely they are controlled by MMs, hedgies and institutions who all share the same bed . I don't know anything about FX but I know that the odds...

PFS is one of the most reliable clearing houses out there and the majority of retail brokerges clear through them. As for MB trading, I can only speak about stocks. Their executions are lightning fast and customer service is excellent. Their software is ordinary(bereft of any bells and...

You also get Online Barrons during the week, and the Online WSJ included in the same price. Not true anymore. They recently changed their pricing and price each separately.

I'm straying away from the topic here but this discussion probably explains why a lot of retail brokerages post your order on the inside bid or ask instead of hitting the inside bid or ask so that they can collect the rebates. To wit: If there is an inside bid at 32.00 for 100 shares and I place...

max - while this firm says that it extends 4:1 daytrading margin it also makes a contradictory statement that you can trade unrestricted on an intra-day basis. Since you are with them maybe you can shed some light on the above. Are they in effect saying that you can trade unrestricted on an...

It is a good solid service. But not worth $300 in my opinion. As far as being a distraction or an energy drain it does not even enter into the equatlion. If you can read and understand basic everyday English then the matter ends right there. There is nothing else required of a person.

I think when merely looking at a company's market cap, it is difficult to call bubbles...especially when considering YHOO is MORE EXPENSIVE on some fundamental metrics. [/B] The fundamentals of internet advertising are undergoing a major change as we speak. In the very near future revenues...

The stock dropped when they gave a breakdown of ther EPS increase. .05c was a one time expense reduction and .02c was due to a lower than anticipated tax rate. Thus their pro forma earnings work out to .15c - not all that hot. I was surprised to see the stock keep going up the next two days...

Not only interesting but thought provoking as well. What makes the environment even more difficult is you've got program trading along with manual trading going on simultaneously. I have personally experienced what you pointed out albeit in different stocks. I've posted bids a dollar away from...
