    Mousavi wins Iran election with 65 percent of vote

    Any land might be or might not be controversial. Unless it's on the moon. It all depends on the political power behind the controversy. How come the Druzes were never offered their state? Simple because they don't have enough political clout. They didn't have the backing of hundred of...

    Mousavi wins Iran election with 65 percent of vote

    Punish Arabs? As far as I remember they've got their state too. The difference is the Jews do not want so much land as they want a state. The Arabs don't want so much a state as they want the land. That's why I bet that Arabs have stolen more land from others than others have stolen it from them.

    Mousavi wins Iran election with 65 percent of vote

    With or without religion the nations have the right on their homeland. Unless you don't like the notion that people are divided into nations as well as you don't like the religions.

    Mousavi wins Iran election with 65 percent of vote

    Some people are smart enough to see through the verbal chaff. How about department of defense which is a liability on the US taxpayers too. Why not get rid of it as well?

    High Frequency Trading might be toast

    They are already paying taxes. It's called capital gains taxes to the government and commissions to the exchanges.

    Mousavi wins Iran election with 65 percent of vote

    So how come that the christian Arabs (or Palestinians whatever you want to call it) could care less about their own state? Only the muslim Arabs are struggling for power on any land that they have settled. Or when it comes to Islam you choose to overlook this small fact?

    Mousavi wins Iran election with 65 percent of vote

    There were no Palestinians before Arafat came up with the idea of this bogus nation. Palestinians are not a legitimate nation. They are just Arabs who lived in Palestine under Turkey, British and Jordan mandate. They are as indigenous people of this land as Druzes and Chechens and Greeks.

    Market On Close (MOC)

    I agree. Why is yahoo finance publishing the last price at which it's impossible to get filled but not MOC price? Absurd.

    How Traders Killed Value Investing

    If a company pays out the dividends then the lower the price the more it has value to the investors. No trader of the company's common stock can kill the value ( dividends ) of a good business.

    IB TWS locks up every morning on the open

    No, it's not my case. Streaming data in TWS ( and in API ) seems ok as long as I don't do any actions. The actions like sending trades from my API ( you know at the time when it opens the API tab to show the execution) or closing forms like 'View/Trades' cause TWS to drop the connection.

    The Down Move Has Started

    This market is heading lower. I don't know why it takes them so long to realize that.

    IB TWS locks up every morning on the open

    'Just after the close' - do you mean closing the 'View/Trades' window? If so my TWS consistently locks up after that regardless of API. It loses the connection for 2-4 min, then it reconnects and refreshes the market data.

    Here is why ETFs suck

    How is it different from rolling over long oil futures contracts month after month? Why does uso underperform oil continuous front-month futures?

    IB TWS locks up every morning on the open

    I am running API as well. I guess my API does something funky too. TWS itself also consistently freezes after I close View/Trades window.
