    whoa! Spitzer Is Linked to Prostitution Ring

    Well, one good thing you can say is the prostitute is probably female. That's one thing they have going on the Republicans.

    whoa! Spitzer Is Linked to Prostitution Ring

    WTF? Is this for real?? So far there is only a small article about it in New York Times. IF this is true it would be pretty ironic for Eliot "The Steamroller" Spitzer.

    Is Boone Pickens still short oil?

    Yeah, I thought of replying too but why waste the time arguing with professional trolls. It is pointless and only encourages them more.

    Is Boone Pickens still short oil?

    Maybe that was him covering his short oil position at the 10:30am ring open this morning. :eek:

    Technical outlook on Crude

    Yeah, I still am scratching my head this morning after the 10:30am open. Tried a little to the short side above $106 after the spike up and quickly got stopped out. I'm going to wait for a better spot to get back in. Oil is too crazy right now... too much whipsaw action.

    Senators: Where is Iraq's oil money going?

    Boy they are really on top of the situation here. How long have we been in Iraq and how much have we spent and they are just now asking where is the Iraqi oil money?? I guess better late than never but really makes me wonder what the hell they have been doing for the last 4 plus years. What a joke.

    Bear Stearns in need of cash:

    How much has that currency trader from Bahamas lost since he invested in Bear last summer? I remember it being a pretty big stake. edit: Quick math says at least -$300m based on an 8 million shares when BSC was trading above 100. I don't know how close that is to accurate but it has to be a...

    Paging Ben Bernanke

    Why don't you learn to trade based on what the market is doing rather than what you want it to do? Maybe then you would stop begging to have your positions bailed out by a Bernanke rate cut. I can't wait for your reaction when you see a REAL market correction. This is a walk in the park and...

    QuoteCenter: Reuters missing headlines?

    I think I know why this is happening now. It seems that what you get with Quotecenter is just a watered down version of Reuters full news feed. I talked to my provider and they confirmed there are add-on paid Reuters news subscriptions that enable access to additional stories. It would seem...

    QuoteCenter: Reuters missing headlines?

    Something is definitely screwy with this. Have you asked your provider if they know why this is happening? You have something to compare against from another Reuters source so it would probably be easy to get them to pay attention. I got no news headlines this morning when the wholesale trade...

    What if a trade doesn't immediately move in your favor?

    Hilarious! Thanks for the explanation of the 27 minute rule... now I understand it much better :D

    This is the weirdest thing.

    You have too much free time on your hands. Go outside or something. I wouldn't worry about it honestly...Looks like random crap to me.

    Ron Paul is ready to throw in the towel?

    Ron Paul did a great thing by running. No one really expected him to do as well as he did. I am not sorry I contributed to his campaign but it is probably time for him take a step back. Glad he won his House seat back so convincingly.

    Who would make a better first lady for America?

    She is hot compared to other first ladies of the recent past (Barbara Bush, Nancy Reagan, Hillary Clinton, etc.). I agree that she didn't look to good with the short haircut. She looks much older in those old pictures to me.

    The business of Trading

    Nope. That was probably just to get you to pay more fees for data, now that you are "professional" and all. Sounds fishy to me.

    Short squeeze alert!

    Yup. I have said before if you want to understand how market participants behave you first study dogs. No offense intended towards dogs btw. I have two myself.

    Best Movie about the market

    He was sick with cancer for awhile. I think it is purely coincidental but I thought of that also.

    Slippage with market orders?

    For most of the time the spread on the EuroFX will be 1-2 ticks. So it is a pretty tight market. When it gets fast you can expect more slippage but overall it is not nearly as bad as some markets. I've experienced worse slippage in the ES more times than EuroFX but that's just my experience.
