Last time I checked NxCore provides Level I data (meaning best bid and asks from each market participant). I have requested multiple times that they give true Level II data (i.e., multiple bid/asks from each market participant) but from what I know it is not currently offered. The rep that I...

Is there a way to calculate NAV before ProShares releases that info on their website? For example, the ProShares website is still a day behind as I type.

GO CAVS.

Synonyms? You're now putting words in my mouth but whatever. Yes it does. In this case, Newport Beach is not a very good negotiator. So agents negotiating athletes' salaries aren't part of capitalism?

Actually, salary negotiation has a lot to do with capitalism.

If Newport Beach is stupid enough to pay these lifeguards $200k annually, then shouldn't you be mad at Newport Beach, not the lifeguards who are maximizing their salary? Wait, I thought the US was about capitalism and trying to realize your maximum earnings potential. Shouldn't these lifeguards...

How do you know hedonic adjustments aren't just manipulations to make inflation figures smaller than they actually are? How do you know the MIT BPP numbers aren't real? Why do you trust the government on inflation numbers when it is their best interest to keep them as low as possible? Why do...

You know what's funny is anybody who believes that deflation is a problem. They have been dead wrong for the past 5+ years but that hasn't stopped them from obliterating this country for the common man in the meantime.

Do all your friends own gold and silver? Is everybody talking about it? Do investment places have their clients in gold and silver to any meaningful degree? Are the silver and gold miners participating in this precious metals rally? There is so much disbelief about the move in the precious...

Cramer also said, "When stocks hit $80, they usually go to $120! I know it's hard to believe, but my research shows that it works!" He said this right before he got his ass handed to him once again.

This article couldn't be any more biased if it tried.

A lot of miners haven't done jack during the gold run. Maybe people think that the price of gold is going to fall in the future so they don't want to be suckered in. But for people who believe gold is in a bull market and think the price will stay up at these prices for many years to come, the...

Busting shouldn't be allowed. If you trade at a stupid price, you should be forced to own it. Or if you want a more conciliatory approach, make the people who want to bust get an adjustment on their fill to the busting range. I.e., 10% off is the bust window, then the buster gets a 10% haircut...

Yes, I'm sure actors aren't the biggest a-holes on the planet!

It's a moronic rule just like the people who instituted it.

What complete hogwash. Now you are saying its okay to own Apple even though it doesn't pay a dividend? Considering what you have consistently said this entire thread, it seems like you are trying to have it both ways. Your argument has no merit.

So what happens in this situation if the IRA were a Roth IRA? The wash sale occurs in a normal account and the repurchase occurs in a Roth IRA. The wash sale loss is disallowed and the cost basis in the Roth IRA is adjusted upwards. However, since the Roth IRA has no tax consequences, you have...

I suggest that so that instead of losing X amount of dollars on 1 ES contract, you can scale down your trade so that you lose X/k dollars on SPY where k is some constant that you control. It is just a way of keeping your account alive longer while you learn. You can also do this with...

Maybe scale down at first and trade "substitute" contracts via stocks where you can deploy less capital. Like substitute buying odd lots of SPY for ES, etc. You can then test out your strategies using real money but a scaled down version until you are sure you have positive expectancy. Until...
