Reminiscences is an easy first pick, and the Market Wizards series is also great. Trading in the zone is pretty good, and I also like Trading Rules I and II. These are books on trading in general, without going too much into specific markets/instruments. For Gods sake stay away from books...

For misc. reasons I will need to be more flexible on my trading hours, and am considering moving from swing-trading stocks to trading forex. (No, no bucket shops). So far, I've found that trading the FX-futures on globex would suit me fine - the liquidity at least on EURUSD is there, and if...

Okay, thread is now turning more into the "black people are more racist than white people" direction, with various quotes and examples unsuccessfully meant to prove this. Obviously, a few examples are not proving that it's a bigger problem one way or the other. However, if anyone know of any...

I'm know officially to be adressed as Ribbed Ho Slappa, whilst Z-man is affectionately known to his friends as Mista Mint Flava.

Yup, I see that - I agree with both of those comments.

You're not asking the right question, which is: One man posts about a white racist album on ET, and the thread is derailed by a bunch of losers claiming that it ain't so bad, there are so many reasons for racism etc. Join the klan or something, and keep your excuses for racism out of ET.

I do agree that every individual should be held accountable for their action. The crimes in that statistics should of course be punished, and the criminal should be sent to jail. I can't seem to hear an explanation from you as to why there is a connection between these statistics? Social...

Burtakus, thanks for that retard remark - you're quite the entertainer. It's great to hear you admit that the girl's message is racist, so we're on the same page there. I am however at a loss as to why I am a retard for "not acknowledging blah blah blah". You know, I didn't think that was the...

jzlucas, thank you for posting those statistics. It really gives me a lot to think about. I know you're a smart man, so I was wondering if you could help me understand a few questions I got from reading your post: First, I was wondering why you were posting those statistics. I simply cannot...

You're such a joke, "man". Who hasn't said that racism cannot go both ways? Absolutely noone. Your quote did not contain any racism. However, it should be extremely simple to find another quote, maybe even from IceT for all I know, which has the racism you're thinking of. Both Zzz and myself...

When you provide 99 more quotes from 99 more artists, and if these 100 artists have even 4 percent of the combined sales in the rap market I will not only buy into your statement but also send you flowers, get you tickets to DisneyWorld and allow you to choose five free items from my trading...

sputdr, wake up. These little girls ARE spreading racism, and the "hundreds of black rappers" AREN'T doing that. Can I have one reality check of Mr. Sputdr, please.

Not racist in my opinion.

I guess the whole babelfish complex made me miss that :) Thanks.

Just to clear up: Mainstream hip hop/rap albums do NOT contain racism. This is a large part of a serious Californian money-making machine, and they're not about to alienate a large group of consumers as a lot of white kids listen to rap/hip hop. That being said, it's true that quite a few...

So, after one losing signal; no signal for the next day... Apologies for spreading bad karma, but it was just too tempting.

I've read several stories about trades being busted by INET - seems like a good reason to stay away from them. It's been many years since I traded through ISLD, but this practise sounds completely ridiculous. Does ARCA have the same system in place? Just to tell a story from my local...

Yes, I've been thinking about liquidity as a possible issue - depending on how aggressive I want to be etc. I think I'd still be ok at CME, at least in EURUSD.

Thanks late_apex. I guess it's positive that Oanda keeps their market pretty much in line, although I'd never want to trade with them myself. I was just thinking of potential for arbs, of course. I'm thinking of either doing the futures or going with EBS through a major bank. (Leaning towards...

Has anyone checked out the spread between Oanda and either the interbank market or the CME futures? How much can this differ? Anyone done any statistics? I'm curious about this - not trading any of these, so I don't have the quotes to check it out myself.
