    Shorting will help terrorists--no shorts

    <b>Huby:</b> You'll notice that this thread was started by someone who didn't want other traders to short the market. Talk to him. He's trying to convince the rest of us to his mentality. I shared what I plan to do. That is, trade both sides of the market. MGB

    Shorting will help terrorists--no shorts

    <b>Wet:</b> Sorites arguments... If one man dies, is it a tragedy? If two men dies, is it a tragedy? Three? Four? How many does it take for an incident to be a tragedy? Likewise, you can do the reverse... A person has ten million dollars and he's a rich man. Remove one dollar and he's...

    Shorting will help terrorists--no shorts

    <i>Would that mean that anyone going long any of those stocks would be effectively helping the terrorists in their quest for world domination? And if you did go long, knowing that it was helping finance the terrorists but, on balance, you figured it would be worth it to "help" the American...

    Shorting will help terrorists--no shorts

    **Patriots First...Traders Second**

    Telling me not to short is like telling me that I can't drive my car to the left. Being able to drive a car left and right is fundamental. Telling me not to short is like telling me that I can't walk with my left foot. Being able to walk with both feet is fundamental. Likewise, being...

    Overseas Markets and early indications

    I support Bush's statement... "The search is underway for those who are behind these evil acts. I've directed the full resources of our intelligence and law enforcement communities to find those responsible and to bring them to justice. <b>We will make no distinction between the terrorists...

    Overseas Markets and early indications

    Obviously, the Bear trend continues. I'm looking for a short opportunity when Nasdaq reopens, but I feel sick in my stomach to profit from the short that is indirectly exaggerated by the lost of life today. On the other hand, I could donate any profits I make on the day the market reopens...

    Overturn the SEC "Pattern Day Trader Rule"

    The SEC has more important things to deal with right now. They need to get the markets back in order. That's a big deal. It is a much higher priority than overturning the PDT. They might postpone the PDT but I doubt they will overturn it. MGB

    IB Best vs Best ECN Execution?

    With CyberTrader, I don't have to worry about that. CyberTrader's Smart orders can go after the best price, regardless of who is bidding/offering the price. This includes ECN, Market Makers, SOES, Island, etc. This is my compelling reason why I still use CyberTrader over IB, ProTrader...

    MGB: Journal

    I was feeling pressure to "perform for my journal" which caused me to overtrade, overshoot or overhope. I was getting too many losses. So I'm going to take a step back a little bit and reevaluate my goals. One thing for sure, the past few days I've become zealous with my stops. So I've...

    WHERE'S THE BEEF??!!

    WHERE'S THE BEEF? Here's the formation I've been using with very little success. And you'll see why pretty soon. Use Bollinger Bands with 1-minute chart on your favorite stock. In your case, TradeRX, it would be NVDA. Now watch carefully, this is tricky to catch. You want the top BB...
