I started out liking Surf. But he always seemed to be buddy buddy with a number of the most annoying self-promoters on the site, like Tim Sykes. Dunno what he got out of that...

free site - you mean charts? intraday charts? 1-5 minute charts? freecharts is one (owned by barchart.com). But I believe it is delayed, like most freebie chart services seem. Does your broker have charts with your account?

Quote from Kassz007: Slapping an RSI under your price chart and selling when the line crosses into overbought will not make you money. true. Too many twnds of thousands+ newbie traders usually start this way and fail. If that easy, all the investment banks and hedge funds would be...

Quote from retaildaytrader: If you get in the way of my work, then I will file a lawsuit with one of the unemployed attorneys in my area. That is a very empty threat. This is not your forum and you have no claim against others who wish to comment. And there is nothing in the law to...

the article says that they prohibit hoarding of gold "within the continental Uinted States." Guess if you had gold, you should go at least a mile into Canada, and bury your gold. Or perhaps a lockbox at a Canadian bank At least you would technically be following the law, as it would be...

:D frankly, I 90% support the OP, and 10% support Misthos. The content went right over his head.

How in the world did you let Covel keep his own 5-star review of himself and delete more negative reviews???? http://www.elitetrader.com/bo/index.cfm?action=view&B_ID=141&CatID=3

aren't we supposed to CHARGE the banks enough to keep the FDIC from going negative? So now, the govt lend the banks money, so they can lend the govt money...

thanks to our clever leaders, we spent/borrowed billions on cash 4 clunkers, to move Sept sales into August. Any other brilliant moves on the govt part?

you may forward this "inconsequential amount" to my paypal account. User ID? "EasyComeEasyGo..."

Futures are given this kind of tax treatment, due to the way they are structured. It has nothing to do with squelching participation by others. And sites like investopedia are not controlled or owned by the government or others. They have no reason to not cover certain topics, due to the...

Quote from TsTrades: So everyone who went on to become a successful trader started off rich? No, but there is a huge correlation between trading capital and success. Struggling to afford a prop form is about as close as you can get to sounding alarms and flashing warning signs. You are...
