    A crash and a rebound like after 9/11? Really?

    So many people have been talking about a capitulation day where everybody and their cats and dogs will sell their stocks and then the market will miraculously rebound like after 9/11. The first part may well be true: we are barely hanging there at the 9/11 levels, and a crash is very likely...

    Quicken Quotes Live.. last few jabs..

    ============================================= They didn't ever suggest that they had to raise the fees they charge to sustain an expensive operation. Many of us would be willing to pay a bit more to keep QQL running. At least, I emailed them several times before to make that suggestion for...

    What will replace Quicken?

    I agree. They are good-looking charts, and I am using them. The only problem with stockcharts.com (or possibly any other web-based charting service) is that the different timeframes aren't integrated so you've got to draw separate sets of trendlines for each time interval. That's quite a...

    What will replace Quicken?

    ssuits, Nothing else I know of comes close to QQL at that price. I've tried eSignal, Qchart, Nextrend, and even Money.net. In fact, although QQL lacks the ability to do Fib. retracements and to add text, and e-mini futures data, it beats even the more expensive QCharts and...

    Quicken to Esignal

    I just signed up for the eSignal's so-called comparable offer to QQL. The intraday charting for this "standard" package isn't easy to format. For instance, if you set up for 15 days of intraday data, then it's always 15 days of data, whether you are looking at a 1-minute, 5-minute or an...

    Quicken Quotes Live to be discontinued

    I am so disappointed that they are going to shut down QQL. I've tried the following data services, and I left each one for the following reasons: 1. QCharts--unreliable data feed. And you can't open multiple windows. On top of that, their Time and Sales is difficult to read: their bid and...

    Get mad if you INVEST

    tampa, Speculator or not, I agree with Campaque that if we have any minimal decency as citizens of a free market economy, we cannot but be enraged by what's going on with Enron and the like. Not everyone has the same timeframe. Some invest for the longer term; others go...

    Please Help with this tax question

    I elected Mark-to-Market accounting last year for the tax year 2001. Although I sent the application via certified mail, I haven't received a response from IRS since last April. Does anyone have the same experience? Should I just go ahead with the MM accounting method this year? I appreciate...

    Turok, I didn't mean to steal one of your subjects. It's just that we just need to be a skeptic when people claim such results. Stockpunter, You're really good at math, which is not exactly my strong suit.

    Chat room reviews

    I did some calculations. I think the way they tally their results is a bit misleading. They arrive at that 600%+ not on the basis of a fixed number of shares for each trade. Nor is it based on a fixed amount of capital fully invested/traded over time. That is, if you started out with...

    murphy, I went with them for a month with the chatroom ($400) and a month without it but just the alerts ($200). I thought the chief technical analyst, Tiny, was pretty good. I learnt quite a bit from him. Waxie was recovering from an illness, so I never got a chance to see how...
