    Chat room reviews

    I'm watching Waxie's (Trendfund) new infomercial as I write this. He's actually more annoying on tv than he is in in his emails. I think this must be the fifth different product I've seen Joe Theisman hawk on tv. My favorite quote from it so far: "If you can make money paper trading, you can...

    Chat room reviews

    murphy I'll give you my take on Waxie. I tried their service for a while. As for daytrades, I gave up trying to figure out if what they provided was of value. They would post daily entry points on several different stocks. If you had a big move on one, you certainly would hear about it 2...

    Wade Cook news...

    Don Do you have a link to that story? Why does he have to pay money back to customers? Is this for people who bought his seminars? I've kind of followed this story, but I thought that he was vindicated in some way and didn't have to pay back his customers.

    Letsgotrade.com

    The con is software fees. It's $100 a month for their software (non refundable for a certain # of trades) plus you need a QCharts Basic or Intermediate subscription, which is another $80 or $100.

    Archipelago

    I'm almost positive ARCA functions the same way in pre or postmarket that it does during the regular session. You're correct about your assumption regarding SuperSOES. I do believe you can use Selectnet before the market opens to trade with a market maker, maybe as early as 9 AM? Of course...

    The Segway

    If you missed it on tv, they've been running a segment about it on CNN Headline News every half hour. They may not be running it any more by the time you read this.

    Commissions and markup

    I've always been curious...does anyone know how much brokers have to pay when a trade is executed through them? Do they pay per share/per trade/both? And how much are ECN charges, really? All I know of for sure is that Real Tick (Townsend?) gets $3 per trade for each trade that is executed...

    Redi Plus and Multi Monitors

    I have Win 2000. Doesn't seem to be an operating system problem. With regards to hardware, I have an Appian card. I don't know if it's something to do with that.

    How to read new messages?

    Baron Could I suggest a longer time frame than 15 minutes before the unread messages indicators disappear? It's hard to come back more than a couple times a day, and it's like playing 'beat the clock' trying to catch up before your 15 minutes are up. Also, is it possible to set it up so...

    Redi Plus and Multi Monitors

    Does anyone use Redi Plus on multi monitors? Ever since their most recent upgrade, when I start the software, the windows all pop up on my first monitor and I have to move them manually to the correct monitors. Anyone know how to change the settings for this problem?

    TradeStation now a broker !!!

    Actually if you have $30K that you don't absolutely need, opening an account with Tradestation as a backup equities broker is a pretty good alternative. You can use their software for just 10 trades per month, which comes out to $150. Plus, that's 10 trades you don't have to pay to your primary...

    Information on finding a Direct Access Broker

    Click on the link at the top of this page that says 'brokers'. You will get a list of most direct access brokers with ratings by people who frequent this site. (Terra Nova Online has 8 reviews, so that should help)

    a neat site

    I moderate this particular forum. I have no idea why the name of the thread changed. My guess is that Baron changed it because he thought it was misleading to say that this software is the same as Real Tick. He's always been partial to that software as far as I can tell.

    ECN Books

    I just found out that you can get the entire ECN books for ARCA, ISLD and RDBK (Not sure whether other ECNs are in there) at http://www.tradearca.com/automm/arca_book.asp It's all in one montage, just like a level 2 book. Click on 'Java Version' in the middle right of the page.

    Echotrade Seminar

    If you go to their website and find the link to the seminar, they give the list of strategies they discuss. As far as I know, the strategies are pretty much the same one seminar to the next.

    Echotrade Seminar

    I thought it went really well. I picked up on some new strategies I probably would have never encountered anywhere else. The main speaker was a guy named Jon who trades at Echo, but he's not a partner or anything. He's a really good guy; I've emailed him a couple times with some followup...
