    Slippage difference between IB and Scottrade?

    When I place a market order, 99% of the time the execution is instantaneous and at the quote on the screen. Over the last four years you could count on the fingers of one hand the number of times I went, "WTF???" because of a bad execution. And those were from GTC stop orders where prices were...

    Jena 6 member "suicide attempt" - you buying it?

    Nope, not buying it, a person who wants to commit suicide probably won't shoot themselves in the upper chest. More than likely, they'd put it right in their head. And no, he didn't shoot himself accidently while cleaning the weapon. Man, I can't believe people still try to use that excuse...

    A bull in HOTT

    Looks like it will be in the 52 week high list tommorrow. My December is riding on this stock, it's the only position I have. All it has to do is stay above 8.29 for me to put this month in the win column.

    How is a daily volume calculated

    Yes, now that I think about it, I think I remember that too. As far as seeing how your data provider is quoting volume, perhaps you could watch a time a sales report and see if it is correlating to what you chart display shows.

    How is a daily volume calculated

    Back in the 90's there was some squabbling between the NYSE and the Naz over volume reporting. The Naz was reporting more volume than the Big Board so the NYSE complained that the Naz was inflating it's volume reporting by reporting a transaction of 100 shares as being 200 shares in that a buyer...

    Question for the Athiests

    Good lord man, it's a joke. Lighten up. Maybe believing that some old codger crammed all these animals in an ark had affected your sense of humor. Jeez....

    Question for the Athiests

    And where was PETA when all this was going on? Some asshole cramming polar bears, aardvarks and elephants into an ark not much bigger than a frigate.

    Question for the Athiests

    OK, how did he get polar bears and aardvarks on the same ship, or ark as it were, with such little notice of the impending flood? Anyway, thanks for being a smartass and pissing on my attempt at humor.

    Question for the Athiests

    Tell you what - you tell me how Noah kept the polar bears from eating the aardvarks, and then I'll answer your question.

    Will they please stop publishing great books!

    I've seen this thread at the top before but I never read it. I'm delighted to see that at least one person in the world is still reading books. I am a book loving bookworm to the bone, but I, like too many others, have become an information snacker in the digital age. Surfing google and...

    Jews, Particulary, Feel Betrayed by Madoff

    I was in the navy back when the Milken/Boesky scandal broke in the 80's, and I didn't pay much attention to it. I wonder if newspapers ran the same stories then about the Jewish aspect of it? MIlken, Boesky, Levine the other guy who I can't remember right now, (was originally with Kidder...

    Why do the Mods defend a fraud like Jack Hershey

    You still here? I thought for sure you would have embarrassed yourself off the board by now. Since you have no shame, can't you at least be exasperated enough with all of us losers trying to project our definicies on to you that you would just leave in a huff? Or even just get so sick of us...

    Meriwether hedge fund to cut staff

    Before it crashed it was. Niederhoffer was good perfomance. Before he crashed. Richard Dennis was good perfromance. Before he shut down, three times now. Any one of these people could go hat in hand to investors and raise billions based on THAT past performance because that's all...

    Meriwether hedge fund to cut staff

    In today's WSJ. I subscribe to the print, maybe one of you guys who have the digital edition can paste it here. They say they are losing four partners and cutting staff down to 25 employees from 35. The Relative Value Opportunity Portfolio is down 42.78% to the end of November with a net...

    A bull in HOTT

    Moving up nicely yesterday and today, but I wish there was more volume. I'll feel better if it breaks through 9 and stays above it on the next dip.

    What does it say about someone when they repeatedly imply they have strong ethics?

    LOL, yes. People see faults in others that they are most familiar within themselves. There's one chatter here who posts, "you're projecting your inadequicies onto me" in every other post he makes. And all of his other posts is calling someone a loser. Good point.

    Why do the Mods defend a fraud like Jack Hershey

    I like jack hershey. He posts under his real name, he doesn't try to create a fake persona, and that's more than can be said for you. Most of Jack Hershey's posts are about the market. Most of your posts, (as a matter of fact almost all of you last 150 posts), are about Jack Hershey. Why do...
