That sounds very good. Who are you trading with? Peace, :)RS

This equates to bad money and risk management. Averaging down (up in shorts) has it's place. But if it causes the trade to yeild gains that are (in all CAPS) "SO MUCH BIGGER" than it's a lucky trade. Anyway, you say "slightly against", so how can that really make a big difference? Are...

I sold Yahoo at 48 right on an Instinet terminal. All I was thinking was the last two digits. The price was 148. I did not realize it at all. I saw my P&L was negative big time. (I don't remember if it was 500 or 1000 shares). I figured the software was glitched. Wouldn't have been the first...

Longshot, if you really had such a great day, good for you. I don't have any reason to doubt you. I hope for your sake, it happened. I know that some days everything just goes right. Some days it's amazing that no matter what we (at least I) do, nothing goes right. That's trading...

C'mon Dgab, you need to be more cautious in how you word your posts. It almost seems as if you mean to imply that AAA is politically biased. I know you wouldn't want anyone to infer such an outrageous concept. AAA? The personification of open-mindedness! Am I missing something? :confused...

Good one LS LOL... ya got me! Peace, :)RS

Nah, not new at all. My side business of selling "adult toys" to Gordon Gekko, Longshot and FPC has already sent two kids to college, paid the leases on 5 or 6 cars, and a few vacations. And most of that business was done when GG was still using his fake ID. Now that he's turned 21, the glory...

Damn, I thought you liked inflatable dolls. I hope I can get a refund or make an exchange!!! Peace, :)RS

Thanks Pabst....yeah, fathering a son who is doing what he is doing...with the exact right attitude is the highlight of my life. I can't help but re-tell this little story. It made me so proud when it happened it brought tears to my eyes....so indulge me, and my apologies to those who read this...

OK, thank you very much for the reply. But I don't quite understand what you mean by "not used on secure sites"...does this mean I should not use the connection for my order entry platform? Or is the "secure site" you refer to the actual site I am GETTING the information from? ? Peace, RS

Hey RM, thanks for the tip. Maybe I should read it for myself. I got the feeling my son won't have a lot of time to read anything in addition to what he's required to a this point. The regimen is so incredible, he actually had a valid excuse for not writing to me or his grandmothers. They...

Charts and ET on a seperate unit from the computer that has the trading platform. (order entry). That's the one I am worried about. No ET? What are you, nuts???? LOL How can any trader live without ET? GG, Aphie, Longshot, and the crew are essential to any successful trader's life...

Yeah, can't argue with that...:) How did the numbers go DOWN though? During Vietnam, the F-106 was the hot plane in service (AF). Now the main fighter (Navy) is the F-18. The Airforce uses F-15 and F-16. And the F-14 is the biggest and (I think) the fastest. But I believe it's going out of...

Still free? I didn't realize that. Thanks! I can't remember the sequence of free ISPs I have used. I know I used "worldspy" (or something like that), which became part of Juno if I recall. Then there were banners that you could not get rid of. I think Netzero also had permanent banners or...

I got some junk email that got passed my "block". This is what was being sold.... http://www.proxyconn.com/best.asp I have never before traded from home, but I am seriously considering trading some Forex. So with the hours involved, being able to at least move stops or whatever from...

Pabst my man....why so serious all the time? I know you don't vote for politicians based on their acedemic achievements (Clinton?). Or their financial status (Nixon?). Or their lineage (all Kennedys). So what's the big deal? You get elected, and you get made fun of. Comes with the job...

I need Gordon Gekko and Aphie to read this and refine it down to 1000 words (or less). What's the essence here? I smell a "holy grail" hidden somewhere in all those words. Uncover it guys! C'mon! Hey, if I were as young as you guys, and had the time you guys have (not to mention the brains)...

Possibly valid. I couldn't tell you for sure. I will ask some people who are more knowledgeable than me. I don't know who Waxman is. Do you mean Wexler? Robert Wexler is my congressman (Boca Raton), and someone I know personally. (Not well....he is friendly with my wife's ex-husband, so that...

Is this a yes or no? Why be evasive? Peace, :)RS

Max, if the shoe fits..... Now, more importantly, can I count on you in a pinch when I start trading from home? (It will not be during regular mkt. hours). Isn't that what friends are for?? Peace, :)RS
