    Boozer Homes

    BZH looks like it's setting up for a decent spike upwards. Vol has been contracting for a few weeks now. There's a huge amount of shares sold short. Aditionally, looks like some decent call buying came in over the past few days in oct and nov 10 strike. I'm not sure what the catalyst would...

    trading on a blackberry

I also wouldn't use it mostly for entering trades, but to monitor existing positions, and if something unfavorable develops, exiting the position.

    trading on a blackberry

    thanks for the help. I am a total newbie with this stuff, though and have some more questions. Is verizon the only company that works with these devices? Also, if I'm logged into my trading account, will it be secure? Is there something I can do to make it secure?

    trading on a blackberry

    Hi. I've never had a blackberry or PDA. I am going to be out of the office for much of this summer and was hoping I wouldn't have to close all my positions because I wouldn't able to access my trading account. Is it possible to use quotetrek or something to trade an IB account from a PDA...

    How market makers work in Futures
