    An open invitation to the hot shots of ET

    Hello...why not check the P&L 2007 posts.... MBAGEARHEAD is scalping his way towards greatness.....and looks to be the next Timmay...without the attendant disasterous single trade. One thing about gearhead: it doesn't get to his "head"....which was so apparent with Sykes when he got "suckered"...

    The Timmay Sykes Journal

    Tim - you ignored my afternoon post. Again, you made money shorting microcaps, but then you got stung badly going long on Cygnus, arguably, one of the worst microcaps in history. Heck, a google search didn't even show their website on the first page. I just reviewed their overall quarterly...

    The Timmay Sykes Journal

    Tim - just read your book....could hardly put it down...finished it in about 8 hours. Enjoyed every minute of it. Comment: With all of that money as a young guy, I'll bet it was hard to keep from writing about the details regarding all of the women and partying. Still, I'm glad you left that...

    Have all the bears been fleeced yet?

    Goldilocks appears to be alive again. However, she's now a zombie, having died after the sub-prime debacle. The silver bullet to put her down will be inflation and the dropping US dollar. All in good time. For now, the bulls are dancing in the streets.

    any one else getting bad data with IQ feed?

    There's a huge problem in the US now regarding tech support. It's at an all-time low. Reason: low salaries due to outsourcing. No one wants to work in tech any longer. Thus, marginal workers are there now. I've experienced a plethora of tech support issues recently with software, hardware...

    Computer running at 100% CPU Usage and not sure why

    You've got a lot of strange processes running....you are badly in need of a program that identifies these rogue processes back to the executables: PRIO http://www.prnwatch.com

    Neiderhoffer

    No, Surf is right...someone here is defending the ever-so-arrogant Victor. I'll never forget the email he sent me 5 years ago with the word "erudite" in it. I was suggesting to use a systematic approach to writing options and credit spreads. Then, he responded.

    X_trader / API / RTD / Submit Orders / Excel Question

    Based on this post, I would say yes: http://www.vankartrading.com/trading-platforms/trading- technologies/ TT has an X-Trader API as well, so it's possible to create a customized Excel platform if you know VBA.

    Computer running at 100% CPU Usage and not sure why

    My guess: something lower level....like a hardware driver.....for your video or even your ethernet adapter. I would try to uninstall and then reinstall your drivers with the latest releases.

    Rare Bob Rowshan stock pick--short CROX

    Shorting is much different.... it requires so much more DISCIPLINE.... and short positions are typically so much shorter in time-frame than long positions.

    General motors and Ford making new highs soon

    GM is dead....we're back to the early 80's. Financing those "so-overpriced" pieces of junk from Detroit is going to be so expensive, NO ONE IS GOING TO BUY A NEW CAR from DETROIT any time soon. P.S. Our local Cadillac dealership of 30+ years in business closed their doors recently.

    Rare Bob Rowshan stock pick--short CROX

    Bob, you are aware that "Surf" got his head handed to him on this short trade ? Shorting CROX has been like trying to short GOOG for the past year. IT HASN"T PAID OFF. Till possibly now.

    When you are in a market leader position, like IB is at the moment, you don't have to provide a reason.

    Dollar Down + Stock Market Up?

    Equity markets remain "in-denial" regarding the ultimate effects of the lower US dollar. However, this irrationality can continue for quite some time. Equity markets actually LOVE inflation. When it finally "hits" the markets, it will be swift. Question is: When ?

    Benchmarq vs. Cy Group vs. JC Trading vs. Guardian

    I did that. Here's what happened: I was very impressed with the manager as well as the facility and technology used. The manager quoted me a "deal"....commis, platform charge, etc. Two days later, I receive a contract in the mail, and the "deal" was entirely different....and much worse than...

    CNBC shows its colors

    EXACTLY. He's so much worse than Claman, and even Leslie LaRoach, remember her ? She was great ! CNBC treats their people like shit....so much in the vein of GE. What a sucky company.

    an apple goof I did

    OH wow, it's been just so frustrating for AAPL, RIMM, CROX, and GOOG shorts. I'm sure their run will end....sometime.

    This bull mkt ends with China's bubble

    Correct. However, China markets will STOP rallying when weak demand from the USA forces them to either lower production or to lower prices....or both. That will signal the end of the bubble.
