    No capital contribution

    If faced with these types of interview questions, Warren Buffet wouldn't be able to get a job at Berkshire, Soros wouldn't be able to get a job at Quantum, Steve Jobs wouldn't be able to get a job at Apple, and Bill Gates wouldn't be able to get a job at Microsoft.

    Today Bernanke ended Romney's campaign.

    Today's fed decision was the most blatantly political one in its history. All Ben had to do is wait 1.5 months until after the election to launch QE3. Its is not even QE3 - it is basically a threat. He is basically saying go out and buy stocks, commodities, and real estate otherwise you're...

    Life After Trading

    I rather get out now before Fiscal Cliff 2013. When austerity finally hits America it will be impossible to find a job. I'm thinking of getting licensed (series 7, and 65) and becoming a financial advisor. Luckily I've saved enough to be able to continue to swing trade and invest. For me to...

    Life After Trading

    I wonder where the 90% of traders that eventually quit end up? Where would you end up? Keep in mind daytrading experience on your resume will instantly lead to the resume being trashed. I ask because I'm thinking of joining the 90%. I haven't blown up but I'm burned out. And I'm 33 yo so I...

    Is SPIC worthless "insurance" when you really need it?

    According to Bill Fleckenstein, SPIC: (1) doesn't cover futures accounts at all, (2) doesn't protect you against fraud, (3) and even if you have T-Bills in your name you still are not protected against fraud. If all of the above is true then no one's money is safe at any broker. Brokers blow...

    Interactive Brokers TWS Bug Thread

    I'll go first. In the attached screenshot, notice how the color of the volume bars don't match the color of the price bar. I'm using the latest TWS, not the beta version, but all TWS versions feel like beta versions with these kinds of amateur mistakes.

    Interactive Brokers TWS Bug Thread

    Just post the irrefutable truth (screenshot evidence) on this thread. Don't bother calling IB, we all know from experience how that goes. Bottom line, is that these bugs are easy and simple to fix if IB wanted to. And the bugs are the result of some really amateur programing and poor software...

    Another earthquake off of Japan

    Here is a comment by SimpleGimpy in response to that video: "There are no gods, there is no destiny, there is only a random universe with the tiny, precious, wellspring of life within it. Be kind, be thankful, and live your life well." I think that is a very insightful comment.

    Great Tennis! Go Agassi!

    Agassi should have called it quits after last years final with Federer - where he played very well. He's the greatest shotmaker ever. I have tickets to the open on Sunday - hopefully I see him play if its not raining. I guess he's looking for the Sampras like fairy tale ending of going out...
