    YM Traders Unite

    I just noticed this thread. Did a chat start up anywhere?

    The same people late on mortgage payments spend on top cell-phones, flat TVs, etc.

    It's not that complicated: borrow to invest during inflation, but don't forget to cash out after the peak. Wait for the bottom, start buying again but no debt necessary until you run out of cash. Hmmm.... what is the optimum time to become a lender??

    equating fundamentalists? - only dopes

    Chuck Missler pointed out decades ago that the problem with the Muslim religion is that it cannot coexist with Israel and Christianity because it claims it's people are the "true descendants of Abraham". He predicted the current middle east conflict too and I think he said it would have to go...

    Frosty's trading bot goes live part 2

    This is off topic but I am giving up autotrading for now. After weeks of backtesting I found, at 6am today, that I had calculated commissions wrong and the strategy was about a break even one!! :eek:

    Frosty's trading bot goes live part 2

    Frosty, have you analyzed your bot results's losing days to see if they are in a pattern? Did it do well the week of Memorial Day? How about the Monday before fed announcements and the fed announcement Tuesdays? I have a bot and it is not probably going to do well this upcoming week so I'm...

    Sicko

    They can go to collections. Whether they can really collect, I don't know. My personal experience with credit card collections is that they can't do diddly really if it's under $30-40k. Above that it's worth it to sue. Once something goes to collections and they are not going to sue the worst...

    How is this possible

    Job loyalty is not a two way street nowadays. I maintain that if somebody is really bright, and they are working for somebody else, and they discover the holy grail, that they will not divulge it to the employer. They will be opening an IB account surreptitiously and trading from their home...

    Frosty's trading bot goes live part 2

    Precisely. There is another step that can be added. Backtest but write your strategy to run on tick data. I can do that with Tradestation or Multicharts by building data bars in arrays and running the strategy as the current data bar is building, thus emulating realtime activity and with no...

    Good Quality Liquor

    Ahh yes, a bottle of that stuff and good conversation, [why is it always in an alley?] is what life is about.

    Sicko

    The childish cheap shots from the left are the reason I shut off Air America after only about a half hour. I probably am not going to sit through Sicko either. Nobody with a brain is listening to the left nowadays, unless they have to in a classroom. Maybe they would if they could sound...

    Cowardly Liberals Again Lying About Ann Coulter

    Liberalism demands that you suspend reason. Outside of that it makes sense. I had to quit watching talk shows because I never saw a conservative finish a sentence. It became sickening so I just scratched it entirely. Once I saw a "born again" candidate and they were letting him finish...

    American Oil and the Third World

    Maybe they never wanted to be selling natural resources, or exploiting them at all. Maybe they wanted to farm, or hunt and fish. Oil companies are not exactly people friendly or environment friendly when they go into places like that. They go in and do whatever it takes to make the bucks and...

    Sorry IB, your customer service is a joke

    I've just never had a problem with IB customer service, no problem connecting with chat, no rude people, no unanswered technical problems, zip, nada, can't complain. I have occasioned enormously stupid things that I did on my end, I trade manually with them and I use the API via third party...

    IB's new Index Numbers - DISSERVICE TO TRADERS???

    You will change your thinking if you get hacked. I was using an auction sniping service and somebody was able to hack them and get info to get into my ebay account and start selling all sorts of non-existant Ipods. Ebay security caught it and put the kaibosh on the whole thing but I am locked...

    Ron Paul praises the criminal element...

    IOW the elite can do whatever it wants. I never cared about conspiracy stuff until very recently. Now I'm seeing history and current events tied to the Book of Revelation and dang... it's all very interesting. Anti Christ is on a collision course with God... God comes out unscathed in case...

    Ron Paul praises the criminal element...

    All the tax protesters [that I know of] have gone down in flames in the past. The absolute harassment by the IRS drove some of them to bankruptcy. I heard one guy's story, he had IRS people laugh at him when he asked for a warrant, they took cars from his property that were not his, etc. He was...
