    Traders are doomed with the IRS

    i'm personally think that it's a kind of man thing.to me- it's not even about the money. it's about-i can do it. and about -i'm right!(or wrong). the challenge itself. and it's straight forward thing. you right-you got paid on the spot. you wrong-you pay. fast, plain and simple.

    Traders are doomed with the IRS

    http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20110207161832AAZetZg is there something new in it since 1954? as been explained above-you add disallowed loss to basis. 10-20K executions per year and it's so insignificant to me that it's imo not worth to even elect M2M. i'm missing something?

    stock price scanner

    ok..but i'm just curious about your logic and quick trades. in premarket? or at open or after open? you find a bid that was up 1% from previous close. then what? short it right away? not logical,could be some news that you didn't know about or pretty much anything else. wait until market open...

    stock price scanner

    since you have such strict requirements-your only option will be some sort of custom application. think about. even if they do have it-how you going to store or know when(for example) bid was higher than close? was it 4 am or 9:29am? what if markets gaps up\down? and there is 5000 stocks that...
