Babak, I don't get it please elaborate. Hypothetically, if I bought puts when I was bearish after the attack, was I just buying them outright as a trade or buying them to hedge long positions? I don't know. Now I am less bearish so I "unwind" my puts. Am I just selling the puts I had...

Sure wish I had loaded up on 10,000 shares of EXDS before it was halted for bankruptcy filing. I would be sittin pretty right now....pretty broke that is.

Captain Kirk said it best....back off. Sorry still in Trek mode. Speaking of Que....what about Q. Might be a little easier to trade if you are an omniscient all knowing being with unlimited power. Or 7 of 9 could indeed fit the bill. She could assimilate the MM's into the Collective and...

Actually, Realtick will give you the top 20 gapping stocks for NNMS and the top 20 for small cap. Additionally, you cannot sort based on the specific criteria mentioned. That said, I use this Gap list by Realtick myself to trade a 30 minute gap play every day though I have wondered if I am...

I have had an ongoing debate with another trader on whether Spock would be the best trader from the Trek series....or perhaps if Data would be better. Clearly Data would be better from a pure speed/order execution viewpoint. Remember that early STNG episode when he re-aligns those crystals in...

You did not say what dta feed you use but Sort Wizard will do it for you if you have a Realtick feed. Not sure if SW can work with other feeds. Stormchaser/tracker will do it as well but I think it also needs a RT feed at this point. Check www.daytradingstocks.com for links to both under...

to get the scanners. I use Realtick, and I see them in the symbol guide search dialog box, but I can't seem to access them. I use a small broker in CA and he seemed to know nothing about them. I heard somewhere that you can call Townsend direct but have not tried it yet.

But I suppose that is understandable since we need every advantage we can get. However I think this is incorrect. I believe that SOES will take an order entered and auto execute the order to the MM with SOES priority. However if the order is larger than the displayed volume of the priority...

Your second scenario is correct Magna. It will execute the order 100,100,100 against the three 100 share quotes and then all 700 remaining will go against the reserve of MM1 assuming (obvioulsy) his reserve is at least 700 shares obviously. Again, with the zero second delay functionality, this...

Shneed-If a MM has size to hide, to me thats multiple thousands of shares and under either scenario (old or new) he was not forced to show it as the reserve volume was only known to him and the Nas. Being forced to show 1000 when he may have had 20,000 vs being allowed to only show 100 does not...

THey would not get it if the SEC decides it violates their policies

THe main change that helped us regarding SS and reserve volume was NOT the requirement for the 1000 share display if reserve is posted but the fact that SuperSOES orders will execute directly against reserve volume coupled with the elimination of the 17 second interval delay between SOES...

it really is not that important. It was obviously an aggressive structure aimed at providing opportunity for those barred by the 25K rule. I commend them for trying and really hope they get the no action letter and/or satisfy the regulators as I think they provide a niche worth having in the...

Sorry, I have no energy to discuss the lameness that is E-trade be it Power E-trade, E-Trade Pro or what ever. What do you pay for a limit order? What ever it is, you can get the same or better with a real Direct Access platform so why even deal with it in the first place?! The only previous...

Trading is one of the hardest professions in existence. After the 3 years of brain damage and hard work, i f you are gravitating towards success as a trader.......why in the world would you want to give it up and go back to school?!! The only benefit of school and degrees (from a capitalistic...

It is verified to the extent that an associate of mine who had posted a Daytradingpro bannner on his site talked to Guy and Guy told him that they were asked to shut down or be shut down, but also that their attorneys were active in seeking changes to their structure so as to appease what ever...

I have been fading rallies for so long.....what the hell is a rally without at least a 38% retracement.!? This 'rally then base then breakout then base then breakout again' stuff is tough for me to trade. But it seems I remember doing it well once upon a time so we must all have adapted at one...

Forever

word is they got shut down by regulators but are working on a way to continue while appeasing the concerns over circumventing 25k rule with quasi prop trading.

The reality is, anyone who is trading with $2,000 should be considering it as tuition money. No market, commodity, etc. should be considered as providing an inexperienced, learning trader the ability to MAKE A LIVING trading $2,000 of capital. Let's see to make a paltry $4,000 a month to live...
