    Elite Trader BIBLE

    I dont think one uniform Trader Bible/Gems/FAQ document can be created. The variety of contradictory trading philosophies would not permit this. There are of course some viewpoints/beliefs tested and true with widespread consent among traders. Nevertheless trying to combine all this might still...

    Restricting posters by registration date

    I dont see too much interest in this idea. I guess I'll just continue ignoring posts with certain registration dates.

    Are you male or female

    It seems that my original assumption was closer to reality, about 9 to 1 ratio. PS Trvlwanderer, nobody cares where your put your lotion. You can put some up your ass for all I care. To the rest of you, thanks for voting and sorry about this distraction.

    Are you male or female

    Thank You for voting, however I noticed something interesting. The thread has been viewed over 300 times yet only about 50 people voted. I would think the question is not a difficult one. For those having problems I offer this simple procedure: 1. Get up form your computer. 2. Take off...

    Are you male or female

    Just wondering what the composition of ET is as far as gender. Actually to be more precise I was wondering about the composition of traders by gender. Thanks

    China threatens 'nuclear option' of dollar sales

    What is more plausible, a global recession or media bull-shitting people into fear, trying to sell more papers or scaring more people into tuning in? In fact I think this might even be good for US.

    Restricting posters by registration date

    I did not say anything about the number of post a person makes, that is a whole different story.

    Restricting posters by registration date

    Hi, I think it would be super if there was a feature on ET to restrict a thread to posters registered more then a year or two or any other period. The purpose of this would be to cut down on mindless and useless chatter by many new members. This restriction would be selectable by the person who...

    Why highly intelligent people are NOT happy.

    Happiness is caused by how we view the world(ourselves, others, problems, events and everything else). This is usually not a choice unless we consciously make it so - done automatically by our minds. The world is not bad or good, pleasant or cruel, it just is. Whatever meaning you assign to...

    NYC girl's cragslist ad and response

    Dear Madam Forgive me for being blunt, however half the world is pussy. Yet you expect someone to pay 500,000 per year for yours. Considering how few people make 500,000 or more, are you being realistic? Is it worth paying that much for your "spectacular beauty"? You also mention you...

    Suicide Bomb Teams Sent to U.S., Europe

    Desperate, impotent fools, the only power they have is the power we some of us give them (being intimidated/frightened). They can never win otherwise, and will be hunted down.

    IB Secure Device

    If the your computer is compromised the hacker could possibly use it to get at your money. The requests would be coming from the right IP address.

    IB Secure Device

    Recording and transmitting screenshots could presents another level of difficulty for the hacker, but assuming they can do it, then yes. This is why a device/method of password or key distribution/generation totally external to the computer system is the best solution.

    IB Secure Device

    If the virtual keyboard uses non-standard digit/character placement and or shifting their positions, then problem solved. As the previous input cannot be replicated. Regarding the new IB security device - great idea if it works as intended. Having a choice to opt out would not be a bad...

    What to tell my neighbors about my trading career.

    It seems to me that that you want to tell your neighbors that you are successful, and at the same not telling them that you are a trader (for several possible reasons). I think you have to decide which is more important to you. Trading is not well understood, and you might have to explain it...

    U.S. military casualties in wars since 1775.

    Actually US has been quite isolationist in its history, unwilling to get involved in war. How long did it take them to get involved in WWI and WWII? The Vietnam conflict began more than 10 years before US committed a significant amount of troops under Kennedy. Get your facts straight before...

    A Site That Pits Jim Cramer Against A Monkey

    And why not? They already have all the other monkeys. : ) Ok ok, I went too far, some of the people and content on CNBC are sometimes useful.

    Why Cuba Human Development is high?

    Its fine to have opinions. We all have them. It would be better if we were all objective, but we have bias. The problem occurs when you misrepresent your subjective point of view, as facts. The majority of the above mentioned facts are just that. I can open a local left wing newspaper and...
