    WSJ today: Democrats Weigh Tax on Financial Transactions

    The main thrust of the Nazi Party in Germany was that they would only allow gains from activity that produced something directly.... they stole the wealth of their entire upper middle class and still were bankrupted... I'm for freedom, if somebody can make their living trading and they love it...

    Brigitte Gabriel Discusses Muslim History & Radical Islam Now

    The ME is a zoo.. it's unbelievable that those Palestinians would get refuge in Christian Lebanon and nearly immediately set out to kill all the Christians... Our malpracticing media don't report on much really... they were all aglow when South Africa went Communist, and before that the...

    Unbelievable CNN feels need to debunk SNL skit

    These malpracticing news outlets are powerful.. in the Bush years, when the economy was stellar by any measure, a poll was taken and 40% of respondents said we were in a depression... there just weren't news reports pointing out how strong the economy was I'd say...

    Consumerism or Minimalism?

    I've helped people move a couple of times.. One was a little looney and nervous about paying trash fees or something and talked me into moving trash bags that had sat around way too long.... the other ones, well, we moved truck after truck of stuff that basically, we should have trucked it to...

    WSJ today: Democrats Weigh Tax on Financial Transactions

    Yeah, I saw a different blog or article that discussed a very small transaction tax to kill off high freq. trading... that's what I was thinking of.. that might be doable but with the huge investment in infrastructure to enhance high freq trading I think that opposition to a tax like that is...

    What happened to global warming?

    Scientists are communally stupid... guys like Einstein and the other physicists beat their brains out trying to explain things... then the radiotelescope came along and made it obvious that the Universe has a huge electromagnetic component... scientists are fighting the new guys that want to...

    Military coup could oust Obama

    You're an idiot... I've argued many times here that Democrats have created a reservation for blacks by lawsuits against the private sector. Private sector employers would have to have rocks in their heads to hire a black worker if Jessie Jackemup is waiting in the wings to file... Porch monkeys...

    Traders that don't have computer background + Security know how are at disadvantage

    I would labor day and night to pull that off if necessary :D The spec is becoming clearer, must make money on demo account because a smart thief is not going to just run the software, he's going to want to test it a little, and some demos can actually be gamed, and kill a real account...

    Where would you live if you can make more than $200000 per year from stock mark.

    I heard that Clearlake became a hip place. High tech workers in the Bay Area discovered it, maybe they telecommute 4 days and drive in one day or something... I was reading Feng Shue, learning about what the best locations are before I decided where to go... I found these places and went for...

    Where would you live if you can make more than $200000 per year from stock mark.

    I don't fully understand what you are saying.. NY is offering resident domiciles for outsiders so they can tax them?

    WSJ today: Democrats Weigh Tax on Financial Transactions

    Currently I net 4 pts on the YM per typical trade, that's $20 gain per trade.. if the tax was a buck a contract I'm still in the game and Goldman would have to go back to swindling old ladies... The thing is that these legislators think they would get revenue from these taxes but they...

    The Best Sport In The World - Table Tennis

    Table tennis is unreal, the spin that can be put on the ball can make it bounce off your paddle at 90 degrees practically... I played against a guy that had this trick serve, lots of spin, it bounced off his side of the table and went straight, then bounced off my side of the table and became a...

    Traders that don't have computer background + Security know how are at disadvantage

    I want to set things up so a thief will steal a strategy that will take advantage of every thing his broker's API has that can destroy his account.. just starts trading and won't stop... hmmm, I've never thought about what strategy would lose the most money in the least amount of time... hmm...

    why do people laugh when I mention day trading?

    First off, could people not quote morons. Many of us use the ignore feature a lot and would rather not see their posts.. The spin has to be such that it doesn't engender a conversation if you don't want a conversation about what you do... I say that "I manage my retirement account" with...

    Where would you live if you can make more than $200000 per year from stock mark.

    I'm exiting Southern California and going to Santa Barbara for several reasons but what you mention there might be the biggest.

    WSJ today: Democrats Weigh Tax on Financial Transactions

    If they instituted a tiny transaction tax it could kill off high freq. trading... that would not bother most of us here would it? A transaction tax on stocks traded in a 401k or by large investors would affect the stock markets and indirectly the index futs markets. Index futs are bought and...

    Which software backtests Bid Ask data?

    I didn't completely overlook tradelink in my quest, but I didn't look into it much at all, duly noted.. I searched a little better and found that Neoticker accesses bid and ask in backtests, and Sierracharts backtests by replaying at higher speed and it can access bid /ask data but it can't...

    Which software backtests Bid Ask data?

    I'm looking at software packages in increasing detail as I home in on a setup that backtests, charts nicely, and executes well... so far, like others that have gone down this path I'm finding that with those three requirements there are three different softwares required... I'm getting down...
