    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    That (insert your own noun here) from the AFL CIO has no clue what a spread is, or what liquidity even means. Nor do a lot of people who are for this. That is where people need to be educated before they support some piece of shit like this.

    Pictures of your trading stations

    Nice setup. But I have to ask, is that the layout you use while trading? If so, I also have to ask, do you really need 5 monitors for 5 charts? Just curious.

    Yesterday was a lot like this. Actually traded 100 GOOG today out of boredom. Herm, I could use that trip to BK if you're still offering.:( I'll vote for my blotter as the most boring of the day. Is labor day here yet? lost 23 bucks. Don't bother opening the attachment.

    When do 'The Doldrums' end?
