    Vonage

    for those that have it, what do you use to transmit the phone connection throughout the house. Did you buy their wireless router and phones? Just curious because you're saying to get good phones.

    Vonage

    Hey, does anyone here use Vonage? It'd save a crazy amount of money but I was just wondering how the service is. Is the sound good? Did you get the wireless router with the phones--is the signal strong enough around the house? What hardware did you get to have phones around the house? Had...

    Prop Firm in NC

    I've looked and the closest I've found is something called Privateer Trading that puts ads on Monster. Yet, I've sent them 2 emails and never got a reply--I'm not thinking theres too much going on there. I talked with some people a few months ago that were interested in opening a prop...

    7 tips to be a good trader

    When I started trading, one of the best traders I've met to date told me to be willing to listen to the ideas of other traders and then tuck them away and watch to see how their ideas work out. He said not to ignore or argue with people because they may not be profitable or as profitable as you...

    Are we all Market Wizards?

    Good call on people getting to that level because they loved what they were doing and not just to imitate those before them. If you're going to get there it's going to be by worrying about what you're doing and not what others are doing or have done. Yet, I'm surprised no one here thinks...

    Charlotte, North Carolina traders

    From what I heard it was worse on the west side of palm beach and brevard counties because the storm came from that direction. Of course downtown Fort Lauderdale looked like crap afterwards. I lived right by the turnpike and my friends there said it was awful. They said the debris and damage...

    Are we all Market Wizards?

    It seems like most of the people on this site are aiming to be the next great Market Wizard. Does everyone trade so they can become huge and manage billions? I obviously want to make a lot more money but as a small trader, should I be trying to emulate Soros, Paul Tudor Jones, and Warren...

    Superstitious Traders?

    I was just curious if anyone was superstitious with their trading. I'm not talking about reading the stars to figure out if you're going to go long on Thursday. I've known people so superstitious about sports that they had to have the same people over to watch games an sit in the same seats to...

    Is this E-Machine a deal?

    I need a new computer for trading. The one I use now is ok but I could stand to upgrade the 256 ram. I just saw a Circuit City ad for an E-Machine with 1 GB ram with a Pentium 4 Processor 519 for $499 after rebates (and I don't even have to sign up for AOL). Its got a 200 GB hard drive, DVD...

    Why Trade, if you can buy mutual funds?

    Isn't this in the book "A Random Walk Down Wall Street"? Am I wrong? Its in some book. But anyways, they studied MFs and found that on the whole, they averaged out to perform with the market. When you figure in the fees they take out, your money would underperform the market so you'd be...

    Where does everyone live/trade and how old.

    Just turned 25 and just moved to Charlotte, NC from south FL (costs are way down). Been day trading for 2 years because the only people who would hire me out of college was Prop trading (I thought it was a real job). I've been pretty content but i've never really put much work into it...
