    Best and Worst CNBC Commercials

    I can't stand that commercial where the lady say: "it became her goal, with unwavering attention". Like it would matter if she wavered?, like someone would know? Seems all these Analysts with their fictious Chinese Walls between them and their traders have been doing nothing but wavering

    New Nasdaq Fees (Echo vs. Bright)

    absolutely correct. One one contrary note (i.e. contradicting myself) there are a number of significant platform robust stability issues with Redi+ as a direct order entry platform. for example, although the footprint of the software is absolute huge and has not been compiled to take...

    what do you guys think of DELL?

    Makes an outstanding computer using industry leading parts. Compaq made one of the first competing operating systems other than MS Dos, and to this day, still has proprietary software within their components. Hence you can't maintain or update their laptops and desktops without having problems...

    New Nasdaq Fees (Echo vs. Bright)

    ISLD beats NYSE & NYSE+ many times over on listed, and also makes premarkets/postmarket trading possible. Also, you pointed out an essential flaw in SLK being one of the largest clearing agents, then offering their huge inventory for internal cross match vs sending the orders out of their...

    "Bright Trading"

    Simply put, we've heard a lot about the managerial methods in use at a lot of these day trading firms. When a trader comes across Bright, and finds an absence of these games, then they end up starting a thread like this one. Bright doesn't play the mind games and abuse tactics that these...

    As Citicorp goes, there goes the market

    Tues, July 23rd WSJ (an other business newspapers) slammed "C" (Citicorp / Citigroup / Citibank). Seems they and JPM were the powerhouses behind all these failing companies' "key deals". Seems Artie Andy, Enron, WCOM, and who knows whom else had some smart bankers behind them. Opening...

    Picking off Island traders

    you're better off trying to trend follow than cross market spread. fills are never guaranteed, when there's a Specialist involved. they themselves are cross market Arb'ing, so how's you to get inbetween them and that dollar on the floor?

    "Bright Trading"

    Why, you ask, perhaps because, regrettably, PT Barnum's true-isms really are true. Perhaps, traders are so used to the broken shops that they are seeking to leave, that they can't recognize the "Real Thing" whence they run across it. These guys, for all their faults are shoulders above...

    TICK and PREM

    Not really useful for stock daytrading. These general market measurements do not track with a high degree of reliability, the sector to which your stocks belong. PREM is useful in the morning, to indicate a spread between cash-futures and overnight futures (in general the SP500). TICK...

    "Bright Trading"

    What were your experiences?, in detail, namely, which firm, when did you go there (during bull market, bear market or this malaise market?). What are your expectations?, are they reasonable, and do you know of any company/office that's providing that level of fullfilment? What are your...

    Don's openings Part 3

    today was a "I regret trying that strategy" type day. its not normal to have an opening drop-out of over 140 Dow points. its not normal to have a gap down of that range either. I suppose most persons could afford to hold over 40min after the open, and alllow the market to correct, and...

    after all these accounting scandals, after all these corporate CEO salary raids of the treasury after all these "relevations about ... du jour" hey, perhaps it was always a ponzi scheme, and Ponzi copied from the markets.... Chicken or the Egg Bulls or the Bears, which came first...
