    Looking for multi-year 1 minute futures data

    I think TradeStation has several years of intraday. Haven't used them yet. Qcharts used to have several years until Esignal took over. Esignal promised many years ago that they would expand data to years. Still waiting. Just too much to ask for, I guess.

    If You're Having Virus/Malware Problems, ESET NOD32 Is $10 Measly Bucks @ Newegg

    Been using NOD32 for the last 3 years. Chose NOD32 as possibly the best of those rated and reviewed as there is no perfect software. $10 per year is a lot though, like 2.7 cents per day and all.

    Poor Detroit...Lions & Big 3.

    The Detroit Lions need a multi-billion $, tax payer bailout. Sounds like no American has the will to win, so line up for assistance and pity.

    Quants --Alive and Kicking

    I'm afraid they would still fail common sense 101, but the professors would still give them a passing grade just to get rid of them. Just two final exam true or false questions for quants: Price only goes up? A 3% drop in price will not wipe you out when you are leveraged 33:1? (Bear...

    Trading creates Value?

    "....just how many more "liquidity providers" does the world need." How many more useless, lazy workers does the world need. At my former place of employment, none of the slackers ever pondered their sense of value, nor did they feel guilty about receiving a paycheck and only really...

    So much for Global Warming

    My grandparents didn't have no stinkin health insurance. If they ever went to the Dr, they paid out of pocket. Stinkin people today refuse to take care of their health. Come on people!

    Check out Farley and his take on the stinking black boxes

    Alan Farley says: "The fast solution to this structural crisis is heresy in the trading community, but it might be the best choice in getting this destructive force under control. A modest stamp tax would kill runaway algorithms, because transaction costs would be prohibitive. It would also...

    Mark Cuban - Fry his ass or let him walk

    Well said, clacy. Cuban is a proponent of a stock transaction tax, which in his words is supposed to "Tax the Hell Out of Wall Street; Give it to Main Street". Anyone not smart enough to know that "Main Street" would be taxed substantially should be fried. Cuban needs a bit of a humbling...

    Stop The F*(& Madness

    This is working out really well. Instead of being punished for irresponsible recklessness, everyone's getting in line for some candy. Guess who will be the ones that are punished...anyone with assets, income, yup...

    City of Detroit Asks U.S. Government for $10 Billion Dollar Bailout

    You mean, ''Thanks Granholm (D)." So far over the last 6 years of Jennifer Granholm, her only solution to the nation's worst economy has been to increase taxes. She did say that she slashed government spending. What she really meant was that she cut the proposed spending, but it was...

    Treasury gave banks tax bailout too

    None of this gets a mention in the pop media. What will get mentioned continuously in a few months will be the need to raise taxes on the individual because, "the crisis is so much worse than we thought...."
