    Disproving atheists in 82 seconds

    That was easy. It was getting to the first atom that was the real trick.

    A list of all scam unregulated 3rd party educational vendors

    Not a single word of your post negates my claim that your marketing materials are designed to mislead the public as to the capabilities of your software. The FACT is that your promotional materials show 11 pages of trades without a single losing trade, and show this as the SINGLE example of...

    Who offers true tick by tick backtesting

    My experience with IRT in live execution has been good (IB <> IRT), so long as you're trading just a few instruments. Is it something you've tried, or are you just making an assumption?

    A list of all scam unregulated 3rd party educational vendors

    Presented as actual trades, not historical. This was the response from the company's rep when questioned about it. I don't know the people involved with this company, and I have not used the software. All I know is what I've seen. And in my experience, if it looks like a duck and...

    A list of all scam unregulated 3rd party educational vendors

    I'm pleased that you've posted here, because it gives me an opportunity to respond to materials I've seen from your company. And it was those materials that led me to look more closely at what your company is promoting, and how. As a professional, private trader myself, there are few things...

    A list of all scam unregulated 3rd party educational vendors

    I see nothing in that Barron's article addressing benefits of CoolTrade software. Are you an employee of the vendor? Your few posts would lead one to believe that.

    Let Trade Run -- No Exit

    I have no idea what you're trading, or what your basic strategy is, because you didn't specify. Always a problem in these threads. But in nearly all instruments I've traded long intraday, unless you're scalping, statistically you're better off letting things run until EOD. That's for the...

    In Praise of normal girls

    You need to always consider the cost-per-hour of making out. Very, very high maintenance on that one. I've found through a great deal of experience that it's a good idea to set a limit and stop loss, and stick to it.

    Low risk way to make a 66% return (unleveraged) in 2012

    Mav, your posts are more reliable than the VIX. The longer they are, the greater the sign of a dead market.

    Low risk way to make a 66% return (unleveraged) in 2012

    In what country? In this country, Mitt gets yawns from his own party. Probably from his own wife. So he'll never win a general election.

    IB – How to contact to go flat when the internet goes down?

    I know it might seem so last-century, but if you can find a telephone somewhere, why don't you use it and call them? Duh.

    Should I replace or renovate my computer?

    Thanks. The "System Managed Size" adjustment seems to have been a good improvement.

    Should I replace or renovate my computer?

    Well, that's my thinking. It's been a good old horse that's just started to stumble a little. I hate to shoot it too soon.

    anybody else hating this mkt?

    The market has many moods. One tests your fear. One tests your greed. This one tests your PATIENCE. IMO, patience is the hardest test. It sucks. But we've been here before. So just think of it as a helpful, personal-growth exercise in being patient, and go with it.

    Should I replace or renovate my computer?

    Intel 3.0GHz 630 Pentium 4 2MB cache 32-bit CPU Only 1 GB RAM which I am upgrading to 2. Running Windows XP. From what I hear I'm going to need to upgrade Windows in a year or so, which would mean needing a new system anyway. I'm hoping to be able to stick with my current...

    Should I replace or renovate my computer?

    Okay, thanks. If ordering a new system, what specs do I need to concern myself with if I want to use my current video cards. (I am running 3 monitors.) Or, should I just toss everything?

    Should I replace or renovate my computer?

    Looking for advice here, as I know next to zero about hardware. I have a 6-year old trading computer, and was about to replace it when I began wondering it would be possible to renovate. Meaning, replacing motherboard, fans, etc. I replaced my hard drive recently, and run 3 monitors off...

    Top five regrets of the dying

    That's not far from the truth. In a recent article by an experienced hospice nurse, she wrote that the most frequent expressions she heard in the last moments of life included references to the patient's mother or father.
