I have accounts at both IB and Tade Station. The trade station account is for back-up and I do my 10 rt's/month for the free charting, etc. Anytime there is a surge in ticks on the ym, es, nq, or er2, trade station freezes up. You will NOT be able to execute, send, or cancel orders...

do you have a review of http://www.tradingrecipes.com/index.html ?

try configure, ticker, total row. uncheck and check "total row"

mr. 1flyfisher, you are 1funnydude. drink much coffee? btw, many, many mortgages are not being written at this point in time. the u.s. govt is already in the mortgage business, see ginniemae.gov for more information. and, yes, the u.s. govt may expand their role and support of the...

wmt buying wm would not be too far fetched. wm is the wmt of retail banking.

Just for the fun of it: over/under at 4 months on when WM gets a bid for their retail banking business. I assume it's worth $20.00/share, but I guess whom ever wants to buy needs them to completely write off their mortgage business first. I'll say under at 4 months and price will be $25-$30.

I'm long a bunch of esz07 from 1500 with a 1505.75 stop, please, tell me when you are going to go long, so I can exit.

You are providing a great example for newer traders. How do you know when all bad news is priced in? When the stock starts reacting positively to what is perceived to be "bad news". WM and CFC are still acting poorly, thus all bad news is not priced in. It's actually a pretty simple...

CFC and WM are two of the biggies. I'm just saying if these two companies go down (their stock prices are reflecting the very real possibility), the mortgage market is going to be in bad, bad shape. In a different environment, someone would want these companies if their valuations got...

If CFC and WM go down, the U S Govt might need to open their own mortgage company. No one wants to buy these companies, as no CEO of a large bank wants to get into the mortgage business. Unless Blackstone or KKR steps up to the plate, the mortgage business may be completely imploding into...

IBj, Thanks for the update. It's good to know that the problem is fixed.

It's a simple formula. Expect a payout of around 33% blended of your gross commissions. To make $100,000 you will need to generate approximately $300,000 in gross commissions. You can count on an average of 1% commission on total assets. Thus, when you reach 30,000,000 in assets...

Just do the best you can. They're just trying to weed out the folks with horrible math skills and the mentally disturbed, although, obviously even those tests let many slip through. Yes, your job will probably be to bring in the wealth and let money managers manage it. Being a wirehouse...

Yes, 8.3 (1419). I will go back to 8.2. Thanks.

okay, after logging on and off every 5 minutes it finally is working. Must have been a server issue.

Is anyone else having data problems with Trade Station today? My charts are updating fine, but my TradeStation quote sheet is dead, no updates. In fact, the data on there is from the big down day. Just curious if anyone else is having issues.

Thanks for bringing this up. I know it may not help you, but it does alert others to the problems electronic order entry can have. I would be suprised if you could win law suit based upon IB's disclaimer, however, an arbtration panel might actually favor your circumstances as they usually...

I know it sounds exciting to get something that is "unavailable", but let me assure you.....here's how I remember it... it is a real boring program with maybe a few moments of Paul calling down to the floor and trading. I rented it from the public library a long time ago (it was on vhs)...

Not to mention that when Bob calls a $5,000 raise with 47 suited the flop comes 568. When everyone else tries that play, the flop comes 256, but the straight draws never get there. lol

If your average bear is a "C# bear" then, yes. The nice aspect of ninja is that download is free, try it all you want before you trade in real time.
