    I know that on a Mac you can choose to rewrite random data over the drive up to 32 times, basically making most data unrecoverable. I would try to find something like the for a PC.

    Dump!! Dump!! Dump!! b/c of naked shorting.

    Yeah the shorts will knock it down and the retail investors will scurry out of the stock. Know what happens then? A big fundy institution (like CGM) will come in and buy a ton of stock. That alone will cause the shorting to stop OR a competitor will buy them out at a premium, knocking the hell...

    Dump!! Dump!! Dump!! b/c of naked shorting.

    Regardless of how many people short the stock naked, no company will ever go to zero based on short volume. There is not one company in the history of the world that ever did that and it won't start now.

    Poker vs Trading

    How often do you play at the Borgata? My home table is Foxwoods in CT. AC has some good player's bonuses, but nothing beats Vegas for crazy deals. ~$800 isn't bad. What were you playing? 1/2?

    Poker vs Trading

    I do both things quite a bit and would have to disagree with the comment that you have to play every hand. My most often used playing style is what is commonly referred to as a 'rock', meaning you don't play very many hands, however the ones you do play have a positive expectation of profit. I...

    No Risk 2% - options strategies

    I remember some good advice I heard about a year ago from someone on this board. There is a poster who almost no one could understand because the terms he was using were so advanced. What you need to do is find this poster and read all his stuff. Then you should go study until you understand...

    Quick question on the trading of futures

    Well that was what was confusing me. When I did that, the buying power affect was N/A. Any ideas? Am I just not approved to trade futures and so I can't see what the buying power affect would be? I don't think it's my account size.

    Traders Need Only $8 to Buy Barrel of Oil: Massive Oil Supplies: 'Peak Oil' Is a Myth

    The guy who wrote this was on CNBC today. He got shot down harder than anyone I have ever seen get interviewed. The other guy on with him actually laughed when he was making this argument. This is not the reason for high oil.

    Quick question on the trading of futures

    I obviously do not trade futures and have no plans on trading futures but was looking at a buy order for the ES in my TOS account and noticed that I would not have to initially have to put up any capital when buying a contract. My question is: Do you have to put up a specific amount of money...
