No, I am not deluding myself. I agreed with you about your theory. But those who are behind this also know that the left is the political spectrum to use to achieve this. Reason: because they(congress) think they will raise revenue by it. HR676 is the perfect example. They don't look...

http://www.johnconyers.com/hr676faq http://www.johnconyers.com/healthcare These links might be of use. I think this bill has been floating around for a few years. I wonder if adding the transaction tax is something recent or if it has always been in the bill. Looking back, it...

If you have direct access, send em to ISLAND. Over 100+ odd to ARCA. Easier with NASDAQ stocks. Not sure about other ECN's I trust you know odd lotters are pretty much hated in the trading community, though that should not influence your strategy if you are in the learning stage or have...

"CRAMER announces BOTTOM" What, again?:D Sooner or later he will be right.

Unfortunately, other journalist do, and repeat what the NYT trumpets. That's how fires spread.

"Why is the market still so low?" Bear market still in place, Madoff and other corruption fears, fear of potential gov intervention or bankruptcies wiping out shareholder values in financials and others, fear of latest earnings, etc... In a word...FEAR Good time to be a trader.

Having a RINO on top of the ticket didn't help either. I agree with an earlier poster about the blue dogs. I hope they help keep things from going to far left in congress. I would place my money on them over the current crop of pubs, that's for sure. How bout that pick in NY...

I wonder how much lower the murder rate in this country would be if we did not have prohibition. I wonder why the all caring nanny state fails to make the connection...

For the record, Rush stated on a show last night that he hopes Obama succeeds if his policies are Reaganesque, and hopes he fails if his policies are socialist. That would seem reasonable to me, since as a self employed individual I am not a fan of socialism. "The hypocrisy is indeed...

I wouldn't be surprised if similar motives were behind the PDT rules, even at the expense of the brokers. My question is a simple one. Why don't those who wish us little guys out of the game, for whatever reasons, use their lobby power and just have us legislated out? Why even fool with a...

Agree, however, it seems to me that the reporting from a heavily biased free media may often be indistinguishable from that of a state controlled media.

Not unlike countries where the leaders maintain and encourage hatred of the U.S. to stay in power. Is this any different? Our politicians are responsible for the current economic conditions, yet they wear no blame. The media is in their pocket, so Wall Street is the focus, keeping the eyes...

Because they are busy figuring out how much they should tax gasoline now since the oil windfall profit tax ideas won't sell at oil's current price.

An excellent description of many in the MSM

Not possible with a congress that believes wealth comes from government and is openly advocating redistribution I believe destroying the free market is the goal of the left, and what better tools to use than taxation and redistribution. Sure, I'll write congress, but I don't believe they...

There are many variables to such a strategy, but in a nutshell: A solid trend being in place would be required on a given time frame, and adding in could be done on smaller time frame pullbacks to the larger time frame trend. Personally, I won't add to a play unless I have taken partial...

You make an interesting point, but couldn't this comment apply to the taxes imposed on self employed individuals, including but not limited to traders? That's how I feel about the gov, though they are no small fry.

This is a fantastic idea!!!! Hell yes!!!
