Yes it is stupid to go to the bank and get the money if you are the average banking client. The populace has been herded into a fear mode from everything they hear in the media. (The same statement can also be applied to a significant portion on the, ahem, traders who post on this site about...

Because they have to keep fixing the bugs in the non-beta TWS releases every few months or so. :D

Is there anyone who stammers more and as such more annoying than Paulson when he opens his mouth (Bush don't count - he's in a category of his own). Jesus, every time he opens his mouth to speak I wince when I hear him since he sounds like he is just winging it and doesn't quite know what to do...

STOP IT! IT'S NOT MY FAULT!! http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/money_co/2008/07/sen-chuck-schum.html

They don't gun for ONE guy, they try to take out as many as they can at once. It's like a farmer and a sickle: when he swings the blade, he is not looking to get one stalk but as many as he can in that one swing.

80-90%? You guys are lucky. It sucks that any trader is going to lose any money not from trading and I hope in time you guys are made whole again. But what you are getting is far better than the >40% we got when Refco collapsed. Still, I hope you guys get this settled soon! And you can...

Hey DRiSsT Isn't it cool that you can come here and ask for some info/help and quicker than you can say "the dollar is down" the thread degenerates into a pissing contest with contestants from "Quien Es Mas Macho?" Ah, smell that? That's the smell of elite traders!

Using a demo is great to learn this market, but sooner or later you have to drop the trigger on a real trade that has YOUR money at stake. Trading demo and trading live can be 2 very different experiences as psychology can play a strong role in how it affects your trading decisions. So demo...

Right now there are very few choices for retail traders: if you are a rapid in/rapid out trader (common misused term is scalper) then you want to look at one of the ECN shops out there. An ECN doesn't take the other side - they only try to match it up either thru existing orders on their...

How does Bloomberg view CNBC? On my local cable system they are buying ad time to promote Bloomberg television on... CNBC. Just saw it. Had to double check the channel that was on the screen. Anyway, thought it was worth a chuckle.

FXCM, GFT, IB

Talk of dollar intervention coming out of G8.

More rumors and lies!! There's nothing being built at the site of the former WTC complex. All that is going on is dirt being moved from here to over there.

And what does this thread have to do with index trading? If you can't even manage to post in the right section, well...

If it gets that close then it will hit 150 if not just to show the print like it did the first time it hit 100. Some fool will do it if it is close just so they can say "I pushed it iver 150".

I think this is dead on the money. Trichet has kinda painted himself into this corner and for credibility sake for the 10 y.o. Euro currency there will be a 1/4 point rise. It will be interesting to see the Q & A afterward to pick up any signals as to whether or not this is it. That being...

Proper syntax is "UH-OH"

It becomes virtually impossible to return 100% of funds when a court appointed receiver draws his fees from the pool that was/is the traders' monies. The longer he takes to settle this, the more hours he bills to the firm, and since the depositsare considered firm assets, guess where the money...
