Hey a lot of CNBC commentators think we have seen the low at 1270 - so whats the risk:)

Does anyone know when shareholders have to approve the deal by? I was thinking what would happen if mkt either recovers somewhat by this time and/or credit crisis will improve. Doesn't the offer give BSC and shareholder some time to see how overall mkt situation develops and if it should...

Haha I was actual thinking the same. Everytime Gasparino had his talk about Abk getting bailed out for about 3 weeks in a row the mkt rallied big everytime even though all that happened was a huge secondary. I would assume that we will have a couple bailout rumors by Gasparino in BSC over the...

Well I just know having confidence in your bank is paramount. Look at Northern Rock where ppl were standing in line to get their money out until they wre taken over by the british government. I admit I always thought that if a stock goes down 50% or so my first instinct is always its not that...

Lets say I had my money with BSC but don't really follow mkt events everyday but I guess almost everyone will hear about the BSC trouble over the weekend. If I had my money with BSC and didn't take it out in those 24 hours when the liquidity problems started I would most def. be at my next...

I think alot of ppl will upgrade their graphics cards pretty soon because of the highly anticipated game cryisis which has awesome graphics but needs a high-end graphics card and I really mean High-end. I think many ppl were waiting for this game to buy a new card and NVDA currently kicks ATI's...

Ok, Can someone explain this to me. Lets say they actually cheated somehow with the Medicaid program. Wouldn't it just mean that in the worst case the company will be fined and maybe CEO/CFO will go to jail? Is that enough reason to cut stock price by more than half. I remember all the...

Just figured it would be a simple question whether I deduct expenses such as home office, news services health insurance etc on schedule C or something else. I am sorry that one fairly simple question (hope its simple) isn't worth $200-$300 to me. Thx

Sorry I filled out schedule E as instructed by my K1 and not schedule D

Ok I am doing a K1 for the first time and although a bit confusing using a w2 for years it doesn't seem that bad. I just filled out schedule D (1040) as instructed by my K1 but I have expenses I want to deduct too. I used a couple of news services + i traded from a home office + my health...

I've been trading NYSE stocks to 99.8% of the time and I am just making a transition from scalping to chart reading, volume breakouts etc. One reason that I liked trading the NYSE was the ability to get price improved which adds up big over many years. However with the introduction of the...

IRF IRF trading higher after market (40.17) IRF is trading up 2.6% to $41.20 after market. We're told that the strength is due to speculation that the company canceled its planned convertible note offering that had been announced on 6/5. We emphasize that this speculation is not confirmed.

thx kowboy, I almost figured I am the only one with these problems. As of 9:20 (5/23) I can hear the guy again. Just good to know that these issues seem to be on their end and not related to my computer

I was wondering if anybody had problems with newsstrike yesterday (22/5) and so far today. I seem to have problems quite frequently, but after talking to Bill from Newsstrike they usually resolve it on their side. I did ask him if I can do anything on my end to avoid these problems but he...

Hi, I'd like to learn a couple of NYSE stocks from the uptick rule exempt list. I don't care about the NASDAQ stocks because I can usually short them without any problems. The stocks I want to learn should do more than >700,000 Shares a day and have a large average daily range (H/L). Does...

Hi, I was wondering if you could somehow claim a loss on your taxes if you lose a portion of your capital contribution. e.g. somebody paid up $25,000 and loses $5,000 of it. Can the 5,000 be deducted as a loss somehow? Also is this treated different because it is after Tax money. Any...

So am I!!

He just moved DIS $0.50 - Thats nuts

Thanks everybody. I talked to the guy at Trade Ideas and they are very responsive. He's gonna look into my requests. I'll also check out the links you guys provided. Thanks again.

Trade Ideas is ok but just does not do what I am looking for which should be pretty simple. First I like the runing up filter to be customizable where I can say show me all stock which are moving up at least $.25 in 5 minutes. All I get now are results like stock running up 0.02 in 80 seconds...
