Does anyone have any recommendations for equity research companies or sites?

I have only been trading for about 5 months, but my method works for me. I ride my winners until it tells me to get out. I enter the trade with about 500 shares, just to test the water. If it goes against me, I can get out fairly easily. If the stock is moving, and showing directional...

Is this the same as "spraying" a sector?

I don't know about you guys, but my butt would be sleeping in, and then heading to the Caribbean for a long, long time. Margaritas and bikinis, here I come! :cool:

I lived in NC for 25 years and experienced several bad hurricanes. One took my car and dropped two trees on it and left it underwater. Another, killed my beachhouse. All the advice given is the best, esp. beer, ice and water. Short the insurers!! If you have the balls, grab a jetski and go...

Does anyone think his huge salary could be hush money for misdeeds within the exchange? Just a thought.

losing money, lack of steady dependable income, no hot chix to flilrt with. I prefer working in a firm with lots of other traders, there is a sense of commeraderie about it.

Yeah, they are still around, out in Los ALamos. I spoke briefly with on of the math-wiz founders, J. Doyne Farmer. He told me it was still up and running, and last I checked they were still hiring programmers. I believe that in the contract with Swiss Bank, they had to keep a lot of things quiet.

I'm sure she's very intelligent, but she definitely just read what people give her. She's just better to look at than most people in the business. But not as hot as my Frankfurt honey!!

I didn't take the classes b/c I hate formal education, but I got the STC books and the testing CD. If you do that, give it about a month, maybe two.

One can say that the passage of time at the speed of light is zero only if one is an observer of that object. The reason for this is that both are relative to each other. If we, traveling at the speed of light, had no frame of reference to judge our speed, we could not judge our time in a...

Even being a new guy, reading posts that are hostile isn't conducive the content and goals of this site. I'll be the first to admit that I read and post some silly stuff. Why not? Our jobs are hard enough, and a little humor and lightheartedness can go a long way; but the outright hostility...

well, of course it would be ludicrous and insulting to directly compare the value of losing life to losing money. however, if we can just see it as an analogy, why would it be so ridiculous to compare the two. we traders are involved in a battle of wit, instinct and courage where the price is...

Not that I am aware of. The only time some action was taken was when a guy tried to quietly walk out and take a bunch of traders with him 1: after blowing up, and 2: not even mentioning it to anyone. We do have some contract clauses, but they are only on the spcific OPG trading style that a...
