You can point fingers at all the culpable suspects who should have been prosecuted but in hindsight, even the Bernanke has said, they should have save Lehman. Letting Lehman fall made things worse.

As you can see, we still have some range expansion to go. Given the past 15 years, the Dow has always produced at least a 1,000 point range and in some years significantly moreso. While I doubt we see 2001 or 2008 supercrisis this year (they both took time to develop), I would say Dow doing at...

moderator plz delete. not letting me delete.

Markets are looking to retest recent 4/10 lows. Dow and Russell are close. Nasdaq and DAX have broken through. Definitely bearish.

I actually think their charting is pretty good. Well at least compared to say 2-3 years ago. Back then, it was pretty rudimentary. Unusable really, which is why I was using QuoteTracker. But now, it gives you the basic studies, RSI, MACD, Pivot Points. What it has going for it is...

Looks nice but it's $20/month. Got to think about that.

Not bad. Appreciate it. What would be even better was if they had consensus earnings and actual earnings once released.

Someone please suggest a website that shows upcoming earnings. I currently use TheFlyOnTheWall but am not a big fan on its layout. Besides I would like a secondary source for confirmation.

My personal favorite is ChartTrader. When I first saw it, I thought it was gimmicky. But if you are visual or do any type of support/resistance trading like fibs or pivot points, ChartTrader is a must have. The ability to look almost instantly at 1 day, 2 day, 1 week, 1 month, 6 month views...

Ok, name another broker that's better? Been looking for a backup for a while now. IB technology is the best available out there. API, breadth of products, lowest cost. Give me another broker that comes even close.

Uh, you just figuring this out? I held that dog for 2 years because I bought what I believed in. Still believe in how great IB's technology is, but the stock is a dog.

Yeah, I should have been clearer. He's adding at different price level so the initial 300 cars will steadily lose more money. It depends on what price level he's trading at.

I don't agree with that. If you show something worthwhile on your resume, prospective employers will be receptive to that. But of course, you can't expect to go into a technical field that requires years of experience.

Nice work. When I was setting up, it was my first time dealing with multiple routers. Turns out you need to make sure you disable DNS server on one of the routers. Afterwards, everything worked as expected. One of my routers Netgear, N300, has wireless. I have DSL connected to Netgear...

I also got caught long in that down day. I held overnight which is something I usually don't do but I felt strongly the markets will be bouncing back and forth as it tries to establish a bottom. It came back almost to my breakeven point so I decided to hold. Damn thing dumped 10 points...

It's $50 a point for each lot. Every point against you is $15k (300 lots). Say at 1950 handles, ES is down 5 points, by now you are down 500k. What was your lowest drawdown point?

Emini? You kidding right? I thought it was all stocks. Once you have the money, you want the recognition. It's that endless cycle of human want. Always bigger and better.

I was gonna suggest the same thing. By dipping your toe in, you are at least in the trade. And when it goes your way, you can start adding more.

Everyone wants to take a shot. You don't know until you try. And $2500-$3k isn't life-ending. That said, I would suggest you try currency futures instead. The CME stuff. I think they are fairer in that they aren't taking the opposite side of your trade so they don't have a vested interest...

Interesting chart. Seems to portend more downward action. Look at a similar setup on the chart in the Nov timeframe. Triple top then a descent in Dec below 11400 before it rebounds to the 2012 new highs.
