    New Specialist Rule ?

    Scalper007, on the NYSE I don't think that will be the case. The NYSE has a two tier system. NYOB represents the "retail" market. There is a secondary market that only floor traders and upstairs traders working at the exchange have access to. That is where all the trades take place away from...

    intenet provider for home trading

    I think T-1 is overrated. I had that where I used to work...my cable line at home is more reliable and faster for $50 a month. T-1 is like 8X that.

    Overwhelming Majority Of Americans Support Gov't Health Care Even If Taxes Rise

    None of this will work until they put a cap on what doctors charge. WTF do doctor's earn 500K-2M a year?? Put a cap on surgery procedures, we will still get great doctors, and those who are just profiteers can go work on Wall St. like all the other dirtbags.

    Abby J. Cohen: Stocks underpriced, Value everywhere

    He is not your friend. They are all just a bunch of cut throat liars. I really don't know why they require such high academic credentials to work there. After all, they are just a bunch of criminals.

    New Home Sales Plunge 17% - Most In 4 Years

    IMO, CNBC is a financial market promotional tool designed to suck in Joe Six-pack. You can literally make a living off of fading those fools.

    Market order 37 seconds before close and NYSE won't honor it...

    I hope that was a GTD market order and not GTC. If it's GTC you could still get filled in the morning.

    incredibly bad execution

    I'm not an IB customer, so I don't know. They are on TV advertising about options alot, and are known to be very automated. Also, Schwab is a Marketmaker. They could trade against your position. I can't imagine anyone actually having to use manual review in this day of computers, it's...

    incredibly bad execution

    I would leave the account open while you are in arbitration, and I would also escalate the complaint about the 17K. BUT, you need to immediately switch brokers. Don't give Schwab any more business. You might want to try Interactive Brokers.

    Futures Broker - One price unlimited fills

    Okay, but that means an extra 12%, no? I just think that you really need to be doing alot of volume to make this worthwhile.

    Futures Broker - One price unlimited fills

    I think the $50 is just the cap on the exchange fees. You will still be paying commissions to your broker. I'm not sure, but I think that if you lease a seat, your profits are taxed as if it were income, not as investments.

    5% of traders that make money

    Let's not forget that alot of these scenarios work out over a period of days or weeks. No need to use cell phones and IM..there is this little thing called LUNCH, where people on Wall St. exchange info. A phone call or email need only be "hey, let's get a drink at lunch". All the pertinent...

    Hallmark Cards - Greeting Cards - Biggest Scam Ever

    Where do you live? I'm in NJ, and there is a store called Card Smart, that sells nice cards (made in China!) for less than half of Hallmark. I think their days of ripping off are coming to an end!

    Fortress IPO?

    What a mess! I can't believe the SEC doesn't shut this bullshit IPO game down. It is so obvious that anyone who got shares at 18.50 is just gonna sell right away at 35. Christ , who wouldn't? Name one IPO that opened up 100% that continues higher after a few days? Usually they sell of big...
