    What is the best broker to trade Ripple or Bitcoins?

    Still waiting 3 weeks for Bitstamp to approve my application. Gatehub is 2 weeks but the prices are way off. Binance is XRP/BTC and not XRP/USD. Their BTC is a bit off. Bittrex isn't taking any more applications atm. Poloniex doesn't do NY but they have margin trading.

    What is your daily commission expense (re: IB)

    FasterPussycat's Trades & Plays & Ways-volume:June

    It's not the proof that interests me, but the reasons. After making the round trip why dont you just make a side note why you jumped on it. You have time for that since you are not in a trade, and it should only take you 1 min to type, like it took me to write this message. -Grey

    Have you ever been threatened by Interactive Brokers ? Yes, we did

    Sorry Neil, I disagree. This website is about trading not a yahoo message board. There is no reason why I have to sort every other post to get around nationalism and hate so I can read messages about why all of came here in the first place. -Grey

    Have you ever been threatened by Interactive Brokers ? Yes, we did

    This thread is no longer about asking for advice pertaining to trading, it's about bashing the US. Could we close this thread.

    Don't you think IB would have redundent ISP connections and not depend on only one. Even a small fry like me has 2 ISPs. Grey

    Elitetrader Trading Style Poll

    This is fustrating. I know my strategy is to catch larger intraday swings but for some reason I only manage scalps. I would say I have to stick to my strategy of longer intraday trades than actual performance using scalps in recent months. Scalps are in my tool bag but not my focus.

    You could use an old backup version of your registry if there is one available (c:windows\comand\scanreg /restore) but make a new backup of today's version before doing so. You will have to go into DOS to do this. Restoring a backup registry in win98 for instance is only available for the...

    Commercialization

    I'm sure posts on ratings can be regulated to some degree without hurting this websites pageview rate and revenue stream. Sure, Baron can let the flood gates open to all who are willing (to post multiple ratings) but then the integreedy and credibility of this site would be put into question...

    Commercialization

    patefern, That's the point. The industry may have a high turnover but more seasoned traders will have more valuable advice than a newbie of 1 or 2 months. Sure we may get fewer posts but not as much noise from the newborns.

    Commercialization

    Perhaps only Members who have waited through a 3 month probation period should be allowed to post. It's not a perfect solution but will improve the probability of having one person have one account and one vote.

    Exit strategy

    You could try a set of moving averages as trailing stops when you are in profits. For example, 10 MA for quick moves and 20 MA for more gradual moves.

    Stop's

    In my case, I mostly trade stocks under $60 and keep a tighter stop. My stop avg. is around 25 cents but the max. wiggle room I allow is 35 cents and only if the market and the stock are at the lod and consolidating. As the stock moves, I trail it and tighten it at major break points like...
