    Whats the best paid site for stock news?

    i guess one that trade those stocks have to know what news can move them. in this case it's Surprise Inventory Data. you probably will be better off , if you can get it directly from the source. also-look on reports from th past,to see the effects. upgrades\downgrades have nothing to do with it...

    1099-B Brokers Report Proceeds but NOT Cost Basis?!?!?!

    from my experience-most of them don't know s**t,when it comes to trading or tax\financial planning. i've seen accountants,who asks 800-1500 for tax simple corp return..when i double check it-i found at least 3-5 very serious errors.

    again-that depends. HFT is very broad term and they have variety of plays. one of the common tactics is bluffing(specially on small,low vol stocks with spreads) with goal to squeeze you out and force you to sell at bid and buy at ask. i know at least one person,who was able to beat them...

    What are algos actually doing?

    imo-you can compete with $400 dell or whatever. you have to outsmart the machines on other side of your screen. it's not easy,but it's not impossible either. off course you can't compete with them in their game.simply because you can't have the data they have,collocation etc.
