Who trades a short term correction that only lasts 30 years? I'm thinking this will sink well below minus a zillion over the next trillion years. :p Seriously though, it appears to me that we are heading down for the next year, maybe even the next two years. Geez, maybe even a...

No problems for me today, but I did log in before 930 EDT. Just logged in now successfully as a test.

Just wanted to point out that Lundy's chart suggests that he "doubled down" three times. I wonder if that means he has 8 times his initial stake on the line? 1 Intial position 1 First Double Down 2 Second Double Down 4 Third Double Down -- 8 Total at risk

Another big day of "doublin down" for Lundy? His broker must be raking in the dough. . .

Wow, I gotta hand it to you on that gap closing after wcom, since you called it before the wcom news. However, I must state that I do not think this is the end of the bear. I trade Qs, and if they get above 29, I'll grant you that you were right and I was wrong. There are too many weights and...

. . . is a contra Arthur Andersen fund, one that shorts all companies that were with AA in the immediate past. Big bucks to be made there.

I trade the Qs on Island, and I have only one minor quibble, sometimes the quotes are 3 or 4 seconds late. Other than that, I believe there have been some Globex issues. All in all however, I'm still at IB :-).

OK everybody. The average "investor" (read loser) out there in the real world still has all these anal folks telling him to buy. Yeah, he's getting weirded, and maybe not buying all the buy signals, but the fact remains that <b>all investment folk are advising buying stocks</b>. When they...

Not sure if this is what you refer, but here's the link: <a href="https://www.fastrade.co.uk/showLogin.do">Ffastrade</a> I couldn't find anything on TradeTechnologies.

I will enjoy taking money from you as you rely on chatrooms and other gurus. Thanks, I promise to toast to your good health (or at least your ability to obtain new capital) once a month.

Sadly, my edge only applies to QQQ, so I will trade them until I can develope an edge for NQ. I may have that edge already, but it is only in the testing phase :-(. Meanwhile, I wonder if I should switch brokers uhtil I switch trading vehicles.

I'm trading in size, such that Cyber ticket charges would be significantly cheaper than my IB commisions (strictly trading the QQQ on ISLD). But, I've read on this board that there is difficultly shorting through Cyber - specifically that their software rejects shorts on a downtick unless the...

Truckloads of rumors concerning the release date abound, but "reliable" sources suggest that sample boards will be shipped to the media in July/August and the card to be publicly available in August. Dang.:confused:

NQ margins are deteremined by the firm (at least in part). There even has been one guy on Elite that has promoted a $500 margin. I don't have enough "courage" to trade NQs on only five hundred bucks though.

This reply that I am making has been made more than once for every newbie trader who thinks he will get rich by following orders and punching buttons. In a way, it's really stupid of me to post a response. I make money on the QQQ, and I am not really sure where that money comes from - it's...

I don't think y'all are speaking the same lingo. Rather than total dollars per year, wouldn't it be better to speak in points per share per day/month/year? I honestly don't know, only been seriously DTing for a bit now, and haven't quit my job yet. When I started exploring DTing in the...

If it's only 1.5% annual fee, I'm there! Provided it's direct access and quick execution and up all the time, etc. Hmmm, I think I'll wait a bit and see how the others far.

For what it's worth, I use both. TS does my thinking, and IB does my trading. IB is cheap (at my trade volume it's less than half price of TS) and blazingly fast.

Check out http://support.microsoft.com/. They have a knowledge base and newsgroup you can check with. MS even has technical folks stop by the newsgroups to help out.

The only problem I've found is that CRTs have much higher resolution than all but the extremely high end LCDs. And by extreme, I mean over 10 grand each. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to go digital LCD, but I've got two 21 inch CRTs running 2k x 1.5k giving me what feels like an acre of...
