    AAPL in Trouble

    "...the prognosis is generally regarded as poor, with <5% of those diagnosed still alive five years after diagnosis, and complete remission still extremely rare..." Have you seen any recent pics of Jobs? Yes, he's getting older, but still he looks like hell, even considering that. I don't...

    What you're describing is a risk-free money machine. You're going to have to be more clever than that to make money trading forex.

    Bulgarian broker missing ...LOL

    I doubt he went back to Bulgaria if he's been in the US for any length of time. From what I've heard from Bulgarian friends, it sucked in the "back old days" and still sucks today.

    I wish we had a Republican president.

    You're kidding right? Deficit spending reached new depths of depravity under Reagan. What we need is a Libertarian president, one who *actually* believes in smaller government, not just paying lip service to it.

    IB Live Quotes & Ninja Trader v TWS

    IB's real time data is NOT tick data. Some people need to see every tick for tape reading, etc. In that case you need a real data provider like Esignal. For "normal" intraday charting, IB's data is fine.

    As always, technology will kill the old system and usher in a new one

    Now I'm not saying one way or the other about my belief in this "discovery". But I was just reflecting the other day that we do seem overdue for a radical new discovery or tech advancement. We've been coasting along tinkering and improving on world-changing technologies for decades now...

    Help me choose software and broker

    Depends on if you need real tick data (time and sales) or not. That would be for scalp-type day trading. If not, then IB's data is fine.

    CUIL to impact GOOGLE ?

    My first impression is it sucks. Let's face it, there are barriers to entry in any market including web search engines. Yes, Google overcame those barriers but it was enormously difficult unseating Yahoo. Recall what happened to the other search engines like askjeeves, etc.

    Black Swan -- a thought experiment

    I agree that a Black Swan is an event that no one anticipates. But I disagree with the argument that the possibility of some kind of attack on Iranian nuke facilities is priced into options. I think what's priced into the market is a perception that this event is possible, but very unlikely...

    Black Swan -- a thought experiment

    I've always been a fan of the so-called Apocalypse Put. Buy some cheap, OTM puts on a few major indexes as a sort of lottery ticket. If the markets tank, you make money on a directional move down, as well as a panic-driven spike in IV. While everyone else is sh1ttin' their pants, you're...

    McCain Wins By A Landslide !!!!!!!!

    Bill Clinton had a sign that said "It's the economy, stupid." Whoever wins this election needs the sign "It's the Iraq war, stupid." The war is going to be what decides this election, not the economy.
