    Options Action on CNBC

    Anyone watching it want to comment on the same-old, same-old trade recs week after week ?

    The most advanced stops yet...

    This is a pretty impressive add-on. However, I was unable to find anything on the cyborg website regarding it's internal workings. How does it work ? Does it use a DLL interface ? How does it trap and/or transmit the buy/sell orders that are fired from the underlying platform ?

    WARNING: Open E Cry

    Exactly....and his point: doesn't reflect the fact that most of these brokers have employed outsourced or H1B foreigners with questionable credentials. That's the "biggie" here. Even TOS will admit it, despite their attempted marketing of using US techies. It's a CROCK. TOS is now a nice...

    Wells Fargo is a SHORT

    And to add to that, it's gone from $8/share to $30/share in 6 months ? If it was compelling at 8 bucks, is it still compelling at 30 ? I think not.
