    Bulls and Bears documentary

    I read on another forum that at one time that he lost 3.5 million in a week but came back later and made it all back and then some. He supposedly bought a golf course to celebrate his comeback. I like this guy's style! There is also an article out there about a new house he had built. His...

    There is a file called tws.xml that is located in your profile's directory under Jts. Go to File / Restore to figure out which directory this is and copy over the tws.xml file to the second computer and restore the settings.

    I've been looking at Velocity Futures as a backup broker to IB. They have a cheaper commission than what you mention and offer TT FIX adapter as well as many other platforms. From the looks of it they also support NinjaTrader through TT. On the whole they seem to be very competitive with...

    Rogue Trader, Chicago Style (Great Story)

    This looks like a great blog too on trading history and memorabilia as mentioned by billyjoerob as an earlier source on the Zimmerman story. Like the original invitation to the opening day of NYMEX's light sweet crude oil futures in March 1983! Even autographed by then Mayor Ed Koch who rang the...

    gap changes back to old logo after people complain about the new one!!!

    You could be right, the new logo looks like someone churned it out with Microsoft Paint. It is low-res compared to the original. It does look like it was made to be really that bad on purpose. Either that or the firm who designed it is incompetent...

    gap changes back to old logo after people complain about the new one!!!

    The new logo looks horrendous. Looks like it was designed for an accounting firm or something. Gap was very smart to reverse course. You'd be surprised how fickle people can be, this would have hurt their business for sure because it was a P.R. disaster in the making.
