    An idea for gun control regulations

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/District_of_Columbia_v._Heller FAIL. The supreme court has ruled that firearm ownership is a personal right. End of story. BTW- I am all for banning all guns with "clips". :rolleyes: As long as I can keep my firearms with magazines we have no arguement.

    Land of the free? 25% of the world prison population...

    I usually vote libertarian or constitution party. In Tennessee you also have the option of a write in for any office. Last local election I wrote my own name in for several elections.

    If you look closely at the chart the increase in rates of female incarceration is up in proportion to male incarceration rates.

    Land of the free? 25% of the world prison population...

    It is pretty obvious if you look at a chart of our prison population.

    Forget Money - Best Place to Live

    On a sailboat touring the world. My second choice would be on a large (1000 acre+) farm right here in Tennessee.

    POLL: What is the key reason why blacks do so badly at school, stay unemployed and commit crime?

    Doubt all you want however there have been numerous studies. On the bright side American blacks have about 10 points on African blacks so they have that goin for them.

    Muslims want Shariah Law in America: Poll

    That goes against every principle our nation was founded on. If these idiots want to live in a country that has an established religion with a religiously based justice system we need to send them back to the "paradise" they came from. I hear Iran is lovely this time of year. It is just perfect...

    POLL: What is the key reason why blacks do so badly at school, stay unemployed and commit crime?

    IQ levels are lower for blacks. Lower IQ levels in a race of people will result in a higher degree of criminality for that race. I also think poll answer number 1 has something to do with it as well.

    Biotech drug stocks tank after Clinton tweet on price controls

    No we are NOT free to find an alternative. Our government has excempted the health care industry from just about every anti-trust law on the books. As an example there was a case of a lady in New Mexico that was bitten by a scorpion. The hospital charged her 80,000 dollars for the anti-venom...

    Quick question about news

    The reason I avoid trading during news releases is that liquidity is usually pulled prior to the announcement (limit orders thin out) and price tends to move too quickly for me. In some markets like crude you can get slipped 10+ ticks on your stop if you are lucky. (worse if you are not) No, I...

    Watch a couple of news releases relevant to what you are trading before you attempt to trade them. I do not trade when news is released.

    Any firms for US traders that only require 2500 or less capital?

    You can open a futures or forex account with 2500 to trade. If you plan on day trading you will have to have over 25,000 for an equities account. I am troubled with the way you asked the question. You "need" to start trading? If this is a financial need as in you think you will make a living...

    schools, the new american prisons

    I think a lot of parents would object since they would no longer have a free daycare service for their children. Too bad. The money we save on property tax would make up for it. Another benefit would be no more school shootings! No more school bullying! No more teachers seducing their students.

    schools, the new american prisons

    Couldn't this structured social interaction be accomplished at church functions, in the girl/boy scouts and other venues. I don't see why we would need to keep the schools and staff them.

    schools, the new american prisons

    I say we abolish the public school system we have in place and replace it with 100% online content. If we issued students a basic laptop computer and set them up using the Khan academy they would be much better off than in a school building. Advantages: Students would move at their own pace...

    Why are Futures and Forex more popular than stocks for short-term trading?

    FYI. I was somewhat harsh in my reply's to a poster (Voly) that seemed to be going out of his way to troll this thread. It appears his posts have been deleted.

    How to improve NinjaTrader DOM?

    I agree with you about the Ninja DOM; it is worthless. I am by no means saying you should purchase Jigsaw but it is better than TOS (in my opinion). Some of the other products listed in this thread look like they might be even more useful. I am going to test drive them.

    How to improve NinjaTrader DOM?

    I haven't tried Quant chart myself so maybe you're right. Since you are experienced with Quant chart I have a couple of questions. 1) Is it easy to see when limit orders are pulled and added to the DOM ? This is one of the things I look at closely. 2) Iceberg orders. Does it show when someone...
