    Mideast

    The deal has just been signed on a Russian Nuclear reactor for Iran. So, what's the response likely to be? Quiet acceptance, or some type of muffled UN protest. Or, an offensive. Any suggestions? This might be better placed on politics forum but it's the economic consequences I'm...

    Help, short term cash placement

    Being out of the market at the moment, what would be a good plan for cash sitting "on the sidelines" at the broker? Something that earns a decent return, is at call or for 3 months or so, and doesn't mean shifting large amounts in and out of the broker and into banks etc. Bond prices are too...

    Trader Myers-Briggs Personality Type

    EOD Data Source

    This is helpful, bigcharts appears good because it includes the European stocks. The "QT HTTP SERVER API" is beyond my ability, though I might be able to get a programmer to assist. I would've thought this is a fairly obvious sort of need, to get reliable EODD into Excel. Again, thanks for...

    EOD Data Source

    Can anyone suggest a reliable simple source for EOD data? I would prefer a DDE link to Excel, though the platforms I look at seem way too complex and orientated just towards charts & TA. I have an Excel plugin that is perfect, except it just loads Yahoo data which is occasionally full of...
