Tax breaks for specific research wouldn't hurt, either.

Since I drive to my other (non trading) job where I am a self employed entertainment contractor, everytime gas goes up, I take a pay cut. I can't raise my price, as the higher gas goes, the more likely it is that my job will get cut as they are being hurt by higher oil. I am now in the world...

Remember the u tube video of the guy who blew up his account few months back while we watched? Not always a good idea.

Can't argue with that, specially for intraday. What got me in trouble doing it was not getting back to even before the end of the day. Then being stuck overnight and have a gap go against you. Ouch. Better strategy for long term guys with big bankrolls. I think that was the crux of the...

Averaging in can be a strategy (see recent Futures article), but you must still have a stop where you'll throw in the towel. I have done a lot of averaging in while learning, and finally got to a point where I would enter a portion of my size to start. You can always add in to your play when...

The "uptick rule removal is killing the market" crowd is strangely quiet for now. Guess they are riding the wave of short covering combined with buying. They'll be back next correction. And his highness, Cramer, will be leading the charge.

I'm getting huge shadows on my candles for many listed stocks on my E signal. Is anyone else?

Order triggering after hours depends on how you set it up in your trading software. You can set up platforms to allow triggering outside of regular session, or to only trigger during regular session. You'll be given a ride to the bank if you use a market order after session, especially on a...

I kind of agree with you. I'm actually thinking about writing in Ron Paul if he is not on a ticket (depending on who Mccain picks as his mate). Mccain, even though better then the other two, has me concerned. I don't trust him. He voted against the tax cuts, and now he's for extending...

Although it was true that he had nothing to do with the flag, my primary argument against him is simple. He is a socialist. Cut and dry. Listen to him talk about taxes and big gov programs. Go to his senate web sight. View his voting record. Look at his money backers and supporters...

Better yet, one term per prez, 2 term house , 1 term senate reduced to 4 years. Then we would have true representation. Shouldn't be carreer politicians, IMHO. No retirement for politicians. Use the internet and keep em out of DC. They might actually do as they promise. On the other...

eye can't here you, are volume is to loud

First prize! What I don't get is how come so many people don't see it. I've reached the conclusion that many don't want to see it, therefore, it doesn't exist (not to mention the media's love affair with him). Good thing the dem primary loser's constituents will likely go Mccain. I'm not...

Your level? I get the impression that you, as an investor, are the guy who buys the top. You ever think that maybe, just maybe, a trader might be the guy on the other side of the trade when you want to exit your long? But I guess you never want to exit. Reading your posts indicate a stock...

Do you also support govt bailouts of risk takers, welfare, wealth redistribution, etc...?

More proof that we don't need to bring back the uptick rule. Sounds like the deck is totally stacked against short sellers, which begs the question: Why are you and so many others so fired up about traders who sell short? And would you be as equally critical of profit takers who drive down a...

They'll be back next correction.

More evidence that the party that wants to raise our taxes even further is flat fucking full of shit:mad:

I think at one point I asked a broker when I was shopping around if I could trade my PDT account if it fell below 25k. They said I could, but it would become a cash account with no margin. In that respect, I may be incorrect about that part of the rule being SEC. The complete freeze may...
