Big DD, ouch.

Yes, I find it pricey to do something this simple (place an OCA bracket order correctly). TWS alone should be able to do it.

I cant believe you think Paulson is doing all this to try and make money for people at Goldman. Unbelievable. Such childish, simple, empty thinking. He is a smart guy with his sights on a much bigger picture. BTW the taxpayer will make money on this deal.

Very flexible, can do almost anything. Nice DOM with lots of buttons. Pricey tho....

I would love to buy back my personal mortgage which supposedly is somewhere right now trading at 20-30 cents on the dollar. I would pay that much for it....in second, twice as much for that matter.

I don't see a lot of executives being rewarded...Losing billions, fired, humiliated.

Got Ninja, love it, thanks..

Bracket trader won't do it, ironically. BT wont allow BE stops when target touched, just when filled (which by then i dont need a stop any longer...)

Looking for an API for IB's stand alone TWS that can automatically place a limit and stop order as soon as I place/fill a trade. Any suggestions? Thanks.

How is this poor guy doing?

Trying to hedge shorts sales which they dont want to cover because you can't re-do them...If you cover your short sale, you can't re-short them later anymore so hedge with long futures.

Just because a company is private doesn't magically erase all the bad assets they are holding. They can still go belly up.

Paulson inherited as well. The old guy got out just as he saw this coming...Thank god.

Seems to stay high for months when it peaks. 3 months in 98, 4 months in 02, etc.

The sky is falling, the sky is falling....Time to buy.

Raising taxes will do nothing but increase the defecit, eliminate jobs, kill the economy. Even the boy "genius" Obamanothing is coming to understand this.

What ever happened to Riskarb? I always enjoyed reading his material.

Unlimited risk, no thanks.

God bless for staying on track. This is a very tough strategy right now, a bullish strategy in a very bear market (ie. TEX looks like it is falling of a cliff) The good news is option prices are huge now.

When has the govt ever gotten involved and made things better or prices go down? Never. The more they put their hands in the more pain there will be. Nixon like wage and price controls maybe? It's not Lincoln and Jefferson down there anymore. Keep them out.
