Complete carnage for this stock today! Anyone get a good short off at the end of the day?

Easy. They're either newbies who are scared and want to lock in profits or it's someone caught wrong the other way and wants to uptick/downtick the stock in his favor. ______________________________ For Every Buyer, There's A Seller!

Not affiliated with them. My nom de plume came from the famous 80's chop socky kung-fu flick, "The Kid with the Golden Arm". As far as the sliding scale, I believe that if your net profit for the month is $10K or less, you get 35%. The 50% kicks in when you reach around $40K net for the month.

The deal is that all pass-thrus are paid by the trader. These come out to be around 0.35 cents/share and 1.5 cents/share for bullets. The payout percentage ranges from 35%-50% depending on the trader reaching certain performance levels. They trade out of E*Trade Professional Canada. It's a...

Succinctly put, CalTrader! Pacifiers indeed!

When I refer to tape reading, I don't mean the Level 2 Time and Sales, which includes executions against the Specialist, other exchanges and ECNs. I find the T&S to be too fast and frenetic for many stocks and there's too much extraneous information. This makes pure tape reading of T&S less...

Looks like Kobe will dodge a major bullet on this one. The drug overdose story is HUGE to his legal team!

I'd rather give my money to a guy in his pajamas with one monitor and a 60% annual return over the past ten years than a slick MIT math whiz in a Savile Row suit with twenty monitors and a 3% annual return.

Guess this should help the Nets win next year's Finals!

If you can't make money with 2 monitors, then all the extra monitors won't help one bit. It's pretty much overkill.

The number of monitors should be commensurate to your P&L. If you make less than $1-2K a day (gross) then you only need 2 monitors. Heavy hitters that trade different baskets of stocks need to keep track of different indices, hence the need for 3 or more monitors. Most daytraders really only...

Two of them are used for trading, three for video games, one for internet surfing, and two for porn.

Unless you have the bluest chip credentials (i.e., the proper social connections or top of your Ivy League class) or a super trading record with multi-million dollar portfolios at a top-notch firm (daytrading firms don't count), don't even THINK of sending them a resume!
