If you think I am complaining, I am. If you don't think I am compaining, I am not. How do you know I do not spend enough effort on trading? Exactly because I paid high cost to tune a working system, PDT rules came in and destryed it. I surely spend my effort to fight back. All retail...

You are good at irrelevance. By the way, how scientific is trading? Trading is an arts. Trading is about social. But if you can make suggestion to make the poll more scientific, I will appreciate it. The poll is no bogus. But you are if you cannot give scientific suggestions. :p

alanm, SIPC covers broker failure but not other cases like theft. Since I was not intending to discuss the risk of broker failure in this post, may I not waste time to give you such an example? However, there are plenty of examples including the one I gave the URLs earlier, where people...

Perhaps I am out of the context here. What study is this? Doesn't our poll show the results? Check out the poll or vote your opinions if you haven't done so at the following URL. http://elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=10979 :p I want to keep my successful or fail records...

Right, they are criminals. Isn't the purpose of our laws to protect public from these criminals? By the way, let me reiterate that my concern is not brokers going out of business in which case SIPC protects me hopefully. But what about these criminals sitting inside and outside of the firms...

Good suggestion. Thanks. I'll contact my personal financial manager to check out some really good insurers. But the question coming first is that why I am supposed to pay for this kind of cost. Why it is not the brokers? Why the regulators do not protect us in these regards? :p

more details revealed. It connects to crackers. http://cbs.marketwatch.com/news/story.asp?guid=%7B8AD4094B%2D2941%2D4F49%2DB996%2DAB551C13146F%7D&siteid=mktw

An ID theft news on CNN brought attention to me. http://www.cnn.com/2002/LAW/11/25/ID.theft/index.html I have been annoyed by the fact there is no effective protections on our money in brokerage firms. Forget about SIPC. They only bail out the customers in very few circumstances. And all...

I shall also add that the programs must take no consideration on PDT rules. I wish there will be a feature in future to schedule day trades. Thanks. :p

That would be great! How about this, loan me 2K and double it for me and then send me 2K. Thank you very much. :p

The PDT rules need to go away. They are illogical (especially their application on stock options). They represent special interests. They are not fair. :p

Let's poll. Never forget where we had fallen. :p

Yeah, go with non-american. Great idea. :p

I see

Since injustice appears and injustice turns against injustice, Italian is more safer. Hi, what do you mean? :p

We condemn PDT rules and theirs creators. :p

Very well said. That's my hobby. BTW, are you a XXXX? :p

Thank you very much. Actually, comment has been always welcome. I will do my best to develop a PDT tolerant system to trade for a living. :p

Dear Moderator Magna, I don't consider we are complaining here. We discuss PDT rules and its unfairness. We hope to get nice people to support us. Also, I don't like your idea of this " adapt or fade away". We try to adapt but we keep on resisting and trying to get this fixed. That's all we are...

let me give you my simple reason for not going for futures. That is, I do not feel comfortable with futures trading. I have limited capital for trading. Liquidity, timing, reliability will be more crucial than they are to me for trading stocks/stock options. The condition of any futures markets...
