You have to be careful bypassing your home country's accepted medical practice. You go to Europe for the stent, go back to the US and need some kind of cancer treatment. Now there's this foreign appliance in your body that no one in the US knows how to deal with.

Surely such an obvious solution would have been tried already. Maybe infection risk?

Yup. They give you female hormones to counteract the testosterone. Another option is castration but almost no one opts for that for some reason. (!)

I know everyone's seen the "do you have low T?" ads on TV but taking testosterone is definitely a bad idea if your prostate is enlarged. If you have prostate cancer (many men do and don't even know it), testosterone will actually make it grow faster. That's why PC is treated with hormone...

I'd look at using a GPU with OpenCL before going with a hardware implementation.

Wrong. They're an ECN for sure. Hallmarks of a non-ECN broker (i.e. bucketshop): 1) Fixed bid/ask spread 2) Broker is the counterparty 3) Synthetic bid/ask provided by broker 4) No market depth With ECNs the bid/ask is real based on other traders' bids/asks. There's a market depth...

It always struck me as odd too. But the CFTC has their own motherly protection with leverage limits, no hedging etc.

Yup I've been doing great too. Not sure what all the fuss is about. BTFD

No. It's gotta be $25,000 of your money not including margin.

Yes you can trade intraday. BUT it's gotta be less than 4 day trades in a 5 day period. Really dood you should be exercising your google-foo more.

Only because no one eats soup any more.

Things can get cramped in mom's basement. :cool:
