I personally love volatility.

Tired of this? As a trader? You can't be serious. This is a trader's dream. Now, as an investor, I'd be shitting myself about now.

No doubt. There needs to be an active, WILLING participant for this to work. If not, off to Smith Barney, Merrill or Morgan Stanley she goes.

As one of those mutual fund sales guys in a previous life, here's my suggestions: 1) AVOID annuities. They are so incredibly costly. While the 'guarantee' looks nice, there is typically so much fine print it's not even funny. I used to sell one where the fees were at least double of mutual...

Time to get HD channels fellas. :D

That would mean he is only looking at the open and close - not the high and low of the candle. The real body of a candle shows the open and close and all the price(s) in between. The wicks show the extremes.

Then we all move to Canada. Or Mexico. :D Good question in all seriousness. The bulls will be looking for any reason to help push this but if the rate cut doesn't do it...

Schwab has been advertising a high yield checking - http://www.schwab.com/public/schwab/home/account_types/brokerage/schwab_one_with_ic.html?cmsid=P-1778106

Exactly. Therefore, you need a card for 'the people that matter'.

It's a personal preference. Like I said, depending on where you socialize, a biz card could be important. If you are open to outside funds, you need a biz card. If you just work in your mom's basement and eat at Denny's, then a biz card could be overkill. :D

I like bugs reply. Depending on who/where/what you associate with, a biz card may be necessary. Perhaps your spouse is a member of a foundation and they are always asking her what you 'do'. A biz card solves that. Heading to a cocktail party? Doesn't hurt to have an official card. Again, it's...

I agree with everything until that last comment. :D The AFC is brutally tough.

How funny. Just shows anyone can be in Congress. You don't even need to do any homework before talking to the Fed pres.

Sorry to hear that Chris. Maybe it's time to reevaluate your money management practices. To lose entire year's profit in less than a month would be a red flag in my opinion.

The screenshot is from Open ECry, which is what you said you were using. Again, you want the ESH8.

That's awesome humpy. Sounds like something I would do. Women don't always seem to get that sense of humor though. :D

The question is - is streaming market data one of those things that push you into a high download area? I have no idea. I know downloading movies and such is intensive (as the link mentions) but not sure about streaming data... is it more like web surfing or more like downloading movies/apps?

May be time to look at Verizon FIOS if TW does in fact push this through... http://www22.verizon.com/Content/ConsumerFiOS/

Being a TW user, this could be bad news. Not sure how intense intraday data is, but it could be one of those 'top 5%' people...

reno - if you use candlesticks in your daytrading, I suggest you study them more as you'll find out that sometimes the market is not 'textbook'. If you are waiting for the picture perfect hammer, you'll wait for awhile and that one will probably fail. STOP HAMMER HUNTING. Either LEARN what...
