Not happy myself but what really annoys me is that there is no notification from the broker that an issue exists. Of course if they did that no one would use them because there are always issues...

Weekly SPY have PM settlement.

For what it is worth, I have a glass coffee table and it is impossible to keep clean, looks good but wish I never bought it (every time you touch it you leave finger prints). EDIT – As far as structural integrity is concern, I could probably stand in the middle of the table and I am pretty...

I actually talked to them and they said they were back logged. Most recent general message is saying they are having troubles getting orders back from the exchanges. Very comforting to know you have no clue if you are in a position or not.

Seriously thinking about leaving TOS. I have put in a number of orders this morning that have not executed because there is a "back log" right now. How in the world am I supposed to be able to trade when there are ~20 minutes back logs.

Thanks for everyone's input. I think I might go Pekelo's suggested route by just running a wire through my place. I actually have a full time job now but am finally taking the plunge to start trading full time in November so assuming I actually do move, it should only be for a month and a...

The ethernet entry point is less than 5 feet from one end of my place and unless I want an ethernet cord running half the length of my place I can't think of to many other options (office is at the other end; my building is long and narrow). Note that I am probably moving in approx. 3 months so...

Thanks for all the info. I have an older router (not even the G type) so I think I am going to try to upgrade to a wireless N router or dual band router and see if that works. If not I will try to explore the extender route.

I was wondering if anyone has any experience with wireless router extenders and also wall plug extenders (use the wiring to transfer data to other areas of the home). My wireless router is at one end of my home and my bedroom and office are at the other. It would be ideal to run an Ethernet...

Thanks everyone for your input.

I was under the impression that I plugged it in to my wireless router and accessed the hard drive from there. Is this not accurate? It says the transfer rate is up to 1000mbs but I am not sure the typical transfer rate would be. The issue with my last one was that it was far to slow so I...

I am looking for a wireless hard drive, ~+1TB as an extension of my laptop and wife’s laptop. I use to have one (don’t recall what brand) a few years ago but scrapped it since the transfer speeds were agonizingly slow. I have been looking at the one below but the reviews don’t look...

Point taken, I was referring to tax advantaged retirement accounts but did not specify.

Only generate “unearned income” Note that going this route results in not being able to contribute to a retirement account (as far as I have found at least)

I stepped away from the computer before hitting submit and didnt see your reply. Your answer was straight to the point.

In addition to what has been already said above time decay occurs at an increasing rate as expiration approaches. Holding all else equal between the two expirations the weekly time decay as a percentage of the option value will occur faster.

Scataphagos, Do you just keep an eye on the outlet site for the T3500? I am looking now and only see the following: Processor: Dual Core Intel Xeon W3503 2.40GHz, 4M L3, 4.8GT/s Precision Workstation T3500 Tower Standard Power Supply 250 GB SATA Hard Drive (7200 RPM) 1 GB DDR3...

Just wondering if anyone has tried to trade using the internet while on an airplane and what their experience was. Not talking scalping or anything extremely short term that would be affected if the connection went out. Thanks

Depends on what you are trading. I have had an account with TOS for a while and I am still cleared through Penson. They are in the process of moving all non futures and FX products to clear through TD. Not sure of the conversion date though.
