originally posted by rs7 Amen to that!!! Also ditto on an amen to optional777 post. The Bush adminstration is doing a good job, imo. Sure they will make mistakes. However, on 911 America was sucker punched. Not to mention other sucker punches over the last ten years. At...

Well done, Illiquid :)

ditto on that, it was a chunk of nitro's 5 bln :D

LOL....there's the other 10 pts.....@ 1080.50 :D

I vote [ No Clue ] However, I did tell a couple of friends last week that when NQ got to the 980 area that I suspected that a 100 pt Nas 100 squeeze would be likely to occur. :) (90 so far) On the same token, I could have just as easily been wrong. Just so happens that this time I wasn't.

I don't remember the date that decimalization came into effect and to be honest I don't care enough about it to look for it. Was it around March 2001 ? Best I can come up with right off the top of my head. I wish I still had the daily range tables on the nas "stocks" that I was printing at...

KavMan, Do you play countertrend and short the pops? "Just had to do it the other way" :)

LOL - does that T-Shirt have Joe-bob redneck written across the back? I'd feel a bit out of place if it just said Menza :D

The trick for me was to adapt from my first line of thought and put the cats and the water in the same house. My first inclination was that cats should go on one side of the person who smokes blends and water should go on the other.

trdrmac, I came up with the same answer, took me about a 1/2 hour longer.

Sure, The drop in prices have had plenty to do with the narrowing of the price ranges. Plenty to do with it. I have never denied this fact and agree with you on this. However, the ranges dropped sigificantly with the advent of using decimals. THE SAME WEEK !!! The same day for...

Maybe my assertions are not borne out by the facts. My assertions came from watching an average daily range table on about 40 stocks that was posted daily on a webpage called http://www.parttimetrader.com/range.htm This used to be my homepage back when stocks were trading in fractions...

"If I have been successful daytrading Microsoft on paper for a few months, then the ES can't be *that* much harder."

Naw, I don't believe in witches - just voodoo :p What can I say, I live in the south, more root doctors down this way. Now dem root doctors really know what ta do wid dem chickenfeet. :D Oh yea and wizards: gotta love that Gandalf the grey or is it Gandalf the white. I'm confused...

Once upon a time it was there was a widely held belief that if a witch were to be tossed into a pool of deep water, that proof could be determined as to whether or not the person in question, was truly a witch, by whether they sunk to the bottom of the pool (presumed innocent), or floated...

Stockerup, If it's any slower at all - it's not more than 1/2 second. My phone connection was terrible here. I live about 3 or 4 miles from the phone switching station. I trade eminies (NQ) with ib's tws, my executions might be slowed by 1/2 second, might be a tiny bit more at...

I sometimes wonder if it doesn't have a lot to do with the conditions of the local phone lines. I think mine were probably real bad. My data ran horribly on dial-up. Satelitte works much better for me. Yes sometimes, it goes out when it rains. But not always. I still have bellsouth for...

Making the spread smaller, will tighten the daily range. This happened when stocks went from fractions to decimals. I liked daytrading stocks with the fractions a whole lot better than with decimals. The narrower the spread, the narrower the daily range. The narrower the profit...

qdz, Well just imagine ( keyword - "imagine" ) that this is true. Whatcha gonna do about it? Let's say that there are all these big guys out to get all us little guys. Wouldn't it make sense to follow in the tracks of the big guys. Think about it.
