Its called dealers. http://movies.yahoo.com/shop?d=hv&id=1800055142&cf=info&intl=us Also, Rogue Trader is pretty funny. You see Nick fly off the deep end. Then again, maybe in this market, it isn't so funny...

Its curious that the Asian markets and European markets traded down 2-5% ahead of the US markets. Lately the US markets have been leading them down. My guess is that they were factoring in the increasing middle and I/P tension. Anything else that wouldve knocked them down that much? Our...

again, excellent point. much of the reason TA works is because memory and psychology is valid for that period of time. if no one ever remembered where their initial buys were, there would not be a thing called resistance. and vice versa. the only reason i think the HS is valid is...

All this negative sentiment doesn't bode well at all for Bush. His approval rating is plumetting even faster than the Dow. I doubt the market or economy will turn in time to help his reelection. And if he doesnt make a move against Iraq before reelection, that will be seen as rhetoric too...

Whats the best way to trade other families/friends funds? I don't want the hassle of having to login to each individuals account because my turnover is pretty high and that would take too much time. Is there an entity thats best suited for this? I'm not interested in creating a...

On the IB TWS, I currently have the default of 100 shares. So I click, and I'm set up with an order of 100 shares on the bid or ask. However, I'd like to take all the shares sometimes so that I don't have to make that share size change and lose that split second that it takes. Is there an...

There is nothing wrong with admitting to being blind and just waiting. That, and speed, are the biggest weapons of a trader. If you're taking stabs at a bottom, its in the cards that you'll run out of liquidity before you get it right. That rally you are expecting will eventually come...

What July 19 attacks?

Everyone is arguing, beating each other up, patting each other on the back, what the hell. It's all in good fun, after all we are all comrades are we not. From the past thread where people see our profession as "evil", if we cant stick together, maybe we are evil. As long as we are all...

PLS DNT SHT All NYSE stocks, I believe they will outperform the Nasdaq.

Not impatient...just impatiently curious. ;] Haven't seen before. 61.8 and 38.2 is what I see used virtually all the time. Otherwise, if you take the square, why not take it again, and again, and again. Then you can arrive at virtually any retracement level you want to suit your...

I'll ask it again, where do you get the 78.2% Fibonacci retracement level? Are you conjuring up Fibonacci levels to suit your needs? Aren't the correct Fibonacci retracement levels - 61.8 and 38.2%?

Turns out today is just more drip drip lower...so far. No capitulation, no positive divergences. More bad news, just a different kind of bad news. Same bottom pickers.

Where do you get 78.2% as the Fibonacci retracement? Correct me if I'm wrong, but the Fibonacci retracement levels are 61.8% and 38.2%, no?

"The market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent." -John Maynard Keynes

Gotta admire your conviction... ...but this is exactly why this market continues to drip lower and lower. Because of pickers like you that need to be washed out.

The futures are looking uglier and uglier. Asian markets are 3-5% lower. Japan continued lower the whole day with no respite. European markets just the same. The US is going to get schmeissed with headlines about worldcon. I dunno who is worse, terrorists or these crooks...

Whats your guys' takes on tomorrows trading day? Its a 99.9% given that the market will get schmeissed tomorrow opening. But whats your take on the closing? Would like to see traders' opinions up until 1 hour into the day tomorrow. Before the market open preferably but its already...

Anyone know where I can get these readings on the NYSE and NAS in realtime and preferably for free? besides the CNBC streamer Is there a symbol for TRIN and TICK on InteractiveBrokers?

I find it very hard to do. Maybe possible with futures, but with options at least for me its difficult at bottoms. The main problem is 1) the spread, and 2) at the bottom, the premiums are huge due to the spikes in volatility, so even when the market rallies from the bottom, as the volatility...
