    tradestation vs others

    I met someone today, who told me he used Tradestation. I decided to look it up. For me, my choices would be CyberTrader or IB, but could someone comment on Tradestation ? http://www.tradestation.com/fees/platform_fees.shtm A lot of fees going down the list. Anywhere I can get these for...

    Cyber--this can't be legal

    This is a short sell, and it needs and uptick. On a downtick, if the bid/ask is .45/.46, it's not going to hit the bid to sell short for you. That's why it changed to .46 to comply with the up tick rule. As for 6 cents above, not sure what happens there.

    Finding the next Google

    Would you rather find a stock the bring you 1000 percent a year, or would you rather trade ? I found some oil stocks that jumps incredibly over the last few years or so, before pulling back down. How hard is it ? Would you rather buy and hold at the right time, than trade in and out...

    Peils Journal 2 (back from blow up) Fundamental Style

    Keep going bro. Have you changed your broker or use the same ? I think they are charging you a bit too much. If you plan on swing trading, don't take profit too soon. Do this, when you enter a position, imagine yourself on a train going a long with several others. If a train going in the...

    can i retire in 5 years starting with 5,000$ ?

    I read that thread over there on that forum, and there have been so many idiots who thought the guy started with 1000 and made into 7 figures. LOL. He started with this: "That was 18 months ago. I started with a small amount and had no major problems until through additional deposits and...

    I used to hear about those $2/month cell phone insurance (Protection) got abused, people called and file loss/theft report to get new phone replacement. They don't offer that anymore. It's interesting. Suppose they offer accidental protection for your laptop for three years. You can use the...

    Good for you. He could have said: " Get out the of face, 90% percent of you are losers, even the one holding 7 million bucks using Interactive Brokers to trade. How much money do you have ?".

    Day Trader Jailed Six Years For Fraud

    This irreponsible person will not live very well after he gets out. I don't know much about what's called tribal vengeance, but I have a hunch he ain't going to live very well. I hope he gets internet while in jail. :-) This is another reason why you don't say "I am a day trader" to your...

    His gaming experience could be better if it was a SFF PC with a graphic card of his own choice. :-) These days, I think Dell XPS or Alienware laptops could do serious gaming.

    College Laptop

    To the original thread starter. I am in the same boat with you. I want my PC to do a lot of things, and I want it to be fast, and I want it to be portable, and and more. I am into music, I play keyboard with a soft synthesizer. I use EMU soundcard with Emulatorx for sounds. I am into gaming...

    LOL :-) In 30 years, I don't think 474K can buy a pund of Salt. Just kidding. :-) But in order to make 20% a year consistently, you probably have to be a full time trader.

    When will the highest forclosure rate be?

    This maybe off topic, but a real estate agent sent this to my email address today, after I posted on Craigslist asking about a real estate bubble. I want to share it with you. : ------------------------------ I looked at the article you had posted on the internet about the real estate...
