Don't worry, the market will find a reason to rally on the numbers by the end of the day :confused:

Yes, that seems to be a funciton of lead-acid battery technology (they only last 2-4 years). Not surprisingly if you keep them in a place that gets warm the battery life is greatly reduced. I buy replacement UPS batteries off of ebay - they are much cheaper that way (even with the shipping)

Yes, a good one keeps your power from suffering hiccups like brown-outs and under/over-voltage situations which can really do a number on your PC. Having your hard drive lose power while its updating critical data can really mess it up and take a long time to recover from (short of...

The gov't spends a lot of money that was never collected from taxpayers - its called running a deficit.

On the flip side, if the fed had done nothing and let BSC fail then everyone would be complaining that the gov't didn't do enough... sometimes you just can't win.

Where have we heard that before? Oh yea, Bear Stearns,

Great thoughtful post. I'm still sitting short (emini futures) and am not leveraged to the point that I will be shaken out by any short rallies. I agree with everything you said - ignoring short-term and technicals moves there is only one direction this market can go with the current state...

Is there some minimum post count before you are allowed to post a broker review? I noticed that she made a positive review of TransAct after she did her many worthless postings. Between that and her first post it seems pretty clear she is a shill for TransAct...I hope the mods delete...

The only post that doesn't look pointless is the very first one....sticking up for Transact, perhaps a shill trying to add some credibility after the fact?

You noticed the same thing...unfortunately I suspect something sinister is going on...waiting for the spam/trolling to begin from this account now that it has been "seasoned".

sarahs, I notice that you have been responding to many threads that I am subscribed to with very short answers almost like you are trying to build up your post count with pointless responses. Maybe I'm just paranoid... Thread: there goes volatility Post: patience Thread: is it possible...

The 75% figure is misleading (no doubt intentionally). If the current rate is 15% and the new rate is 28% (Obama proposal according to PolitiFact) then that is an increase of (28-15/15) = 86%. Do the same for 24% and you get a 60% increase. 75% must be an average of the two (?) The...

Thank you.

Interesting how the discussion on this thread has diverged from the original disagreement with the premise (e.g. scaling out is a better trading strategy) to this new pragmatic notion that you have to scale out to avoid bad fills. I really don't see how one has to do with the other. Lets...

Kevin, I too have lagging futures quotes from MBT at times. Traceroutes can have certain hops always show up with timeouts if the device at that point does not respond to icmp requests - some firewalls and routers are configured that way so have some timeouts are not necessarily...

Can you translate these words of wisdom into tradeable advise?

If its an optimal point wouldn't you want to take all of it off?

You heard it here first. Every day from now on it will close positive. Doesn't matter how bad the news is. Consumer confidence miss by 10 points? No problem. US real estate market continues precipitous decline with record decline? Piece of cake. Rally on the news. Holy crap -...

I guess Aaron isnt ever going to post here anymore either :confused:
