    market or limit orders for fast moves after the opening bell?

    market or limit orders for fast moves after the opening bell?

    Brynno, Limit orders are faster than market orders. Don't use market orders on a NYSE issue unless you want your ass handed back to you on a plate. Lastly, try placing your limit three cents above or below the inside bid/ask. This will usually help in a fast market and still fill you...

    DSL vs. Cable question

    "make sure you ask the phone company how far you are from the switch." 17,500 feet is the maximum range, about three miles. The actual range is closer to 10 or 12 thousand feet. I had DSL and there were constant problems with dropped connection. I've been running comcast now for the last...

    Pro Traders...please tell me what I'm doing wrong - how can I change it ?

    I quit

    Please don't beat yourself up too bad. This is a tough business even for the best traders. Consider this, it's not a crime to fail in America. The ability to fail and begin again is part of what makes this country great! Good luck! :(
