I doubt we'll see a full recovery of the oil industry in this country anytime soon. It will take some time to rebuild the refineries and get the drills floating in the Gulf back up. I think we'll see quite a fall in oil on Tuesday given the post-market SPR news. I really think we're at an...

From just a quick visual examination, it is very cyclical. It looks like we will see the action continue to the south side to complete the cycle. Of course, that is if the past cyclical nature continues.

The code is referencing tomorrow's data and sending the order today. This is impossible.

Perhaps I am misunderstanding this, but if an immigrant is illegal (undocumented), by receiving a loan wouldn't they then be documented? They are still living here illegally; it seems like an inevitable loss to the banking industry because if the INS does its job and deports these illegal...

You are using Tradestation, right?

I don't know anything about building houses (though my step-father and his family are contractors) but after going to the races last weekend, my father and I were talking about the fact neither of us had a clue who "Menards" was, though they have a large presence in auto racing. I went to...

You should sit down and pencil it out. I'd bet you'd spend about as much on the boat and maintenence as you'd spend on taxes. Between upkeep, gas, and forgone risk-free returns on the purchase of the boat, it would likely be a wash after a while (if not a loss), plus it would be less than...

I meant 100%. My understanding is the price was $20, but the "opening" price on my chart was $66; since I judge one day at a time, it was up more than 100% on the day. Also, I am not advocating shorting it (though options would be tempting if it started to look weak after a while). You'd have...

This thing is crazy. I don't follow stocks usually, but I had to pull up a chart on this thing to see what was up.....I watched it pop about $12 over less than two minutes right before my eyes. It's up well over 100% on the day currently. I'd have to think that, given the fundamental data I...

Summers may be less volatile, but..... The last 8 years' volume numbers are irrelevant considering the contract volume in the most all electronic markets, and the ES particularly, has been on a constant incline. Also, your precious data is not exactly secret; it's common knowledge. I...

Another Stooge fan I take it.....:) Gotta love their business names in those shows.

I'm sure no pun was intended, but I nearly pissed myself.

In many states you are exempt if "advising" less than a set threshold of clients. Also, if the trading is futures-based, you are exempt, period, in many states as this usually falls under the complete jurisdiction of the NFA. For instance, in Oregon you do not have to register for CTA...

I also have this book and read it cover to cover. I have to say it was worth reading, if only from an intellectual-broadening sense, but the actual substance provided does not work out of the box. For instance, his results for his no-lag MAs on the Yen (I think it was the yen...) were not...

Exactly. When you hear non-stop bullish cheerleading, you know it's getting close. Today's afternoon volume in the ES has been pathetic. I've noticed a lack of 100+ blocks the last two days. I think the big boys are finished buying this rally. A breakout like today should be accompanied with...

Please don't quote me on this (I read this in one of his posts a while back) but I understand he has a direct T1 line to his broker. As he put it, it is the fastest way to get the quotes and executions done. It is not an internet connnection; it is a peer-to-peer connection.

I think your computer has problems. I have not tried some of the platforms you've mentioned, but I have tried a few of em. I've NEVER had a virus from a trading platform. I have NEVER had any major problems with the more popular ones you've mentioned as far as bugs/login issues/crashing. You...

There already is......go for a Lotus Elise. The very best car for the money. Also, for the money you're looking to spend, you can go for a clean Ferrari 348. Make sure it has had the clutch service done, as I understand this is a 10k job. Good luck.

I am wanting to switch from TS 8 to 2000i in the near future. However, I have some concerns regarding the data process. I am going to use DTN IQfeed (most likely) and will run Metaserver as the interface. I have heard about a utility called tsnet.exe that allows for multiple copies of 2000i...

Depending on the size of your place, you may need an extra access point in addition to a wireless router. I don't use anything but linksys. I've tried others and they just don't work as reliably. On the other hand, I've had a linksys running 24/7 with absolutely no problems for over 3 years (not...
