was "you want 1000 shares, you only get filled at 500". why not do what i used to do (and still do sometimes when i want it NOW), which is to put in the price ABOVE the ask? so the trade comes as: 500 sh @60.1, 200 @60.12, 200@60.15, 100@60.2 total comission $7.50 . (IB)...

almost took the day off to go down to nyc, as cmj is on this week. however, my music industry friends are too busy with cmj, and schmoozing others, so i can't stop and see them. the good/bad thing of cmj.... ok, we'll get this back onto financial stuff; hope that cnbc cuts the piece on...

any further information on street account? their website doesn't give any pricing plans or sample info...

but cramer HAS got most of this rally...was bullish entire '03. having said that...he also was telling everyone that june 02 was the fulcrum point, the 'put it all in the market' point because of the trading goddess, and that he had put all his money to work. and in july, when maria was...

one rationale is: don't use stops. don't use specific patterns. pick 'generic' stocks, and match it against a buy and hold. traders don't do this, but some studies have. another is the studies don't focus on the winners, but the losers. if you start with 100 people, and 10 make money...

snoop - closing the lock is just a way to make sure that all of RT is shut down (including slower processes, etc.) it does nothing to change your settings. the other part does, but when RT works fully, it can be reset. i stopped trading b/c of this problem, and won't get back here during...

thanks...i was fortunate to have a position going in my favor, and just closed it out. probably early, but i like having my feeds up and operational, and will call it an early day...

and knows an ETA when back up, why down, etc.?

you can always use freerealtick.com to get level 1 information as well.

close the "lock" in the lower right corner. then reset server to TA_SRV (when you got back in). you don't get level 2, but do get L1, if you need it.

here too. about 2 minutes ago.

wasn't there something a couple months ago with the specialist in GE frontrunning, or something similar? i remember hearing about it and thinking "if they can do it with GE..."

and their customers, and IB, continue to make good money. that's the best win-win situation i can think of.

a couple tips: run opera (browser) without popups allowed, and without things like flash being auto-enabled. go to grc.com and d/l and run some of their programs, such as shields up, unpnp, and the shoot the messenger program. if things are popping up without you going to sites, you've...

he posted his personal numbers in the book. since the methodology in the book works (you'd be hard pressed to prove it doesn't), and the subject here IS the book, any future P&L is irrelevant. the questions regarding the book are: -> is the book well written? yes. -> is it helpful to...

vega - i'll give one minor example of why i like the bid/offer. you may claim it's fighting for peanuts, but it's a major reason for me. i see an inflection point coming. i sell the options (or buy them) at a limit price, in some kind of size. i get a partial fill. my trade was right...

IBD has o'neils tip on page 1, and the coverage of the entire indices (inside page A something), along with the disctribution / accumulation ratings and others of each individual stock. that is so much better than anything the journal does *for stock trading*. for articles, the WSJ is much...

my sincere hope is that BOX blows everyone else out of the water. i want to be able to buy and sell at the same time. i want to be able to cancel an order without exchange-mandated charges. go BOX!

AMEX is much worse than the NYSE. and i'm no fan of the ridiculous rules the CBOE has in place. i can't wait for the BOX to come online...

ugh! cramer's picks, pre-this runup, have been atrocious. he has to hold his picks 6 months...and before he did his long-term picks (ie. when he was still at the hedge fund), he said the following: "I think you can invest better than I can. I don't think you can trade better than I...
