    The airing of grievances.

    I'm afraid that if I really let my feelings rip about how all you guys have driven me insane over the last 17 YEARS, I would get myself banned by my own moderators. :D:D Happy Holidays!;)

    ET trading competition

    One of our sponsors is Collective2, and they already provide monitoring and reporting of trader's performances, and as a matter of policy, we don't compete with our sponsors.

    Couple Suggestions

    Good question. It's encouraging to know that somebody likes your post, as that builds "likemindedness" and promotes camaraderie. But from all that I've researched, Dislike buttons do just the opposite: They cause more flame wars and arguments on virtually every site that's tried to implement...

    How come there is no broker ranking on EliteTrader?...

    This just serves as proof that the review business is extremely delicate. Even with algorithms and stringent controls, TripAdvisor still got sued and fined.

    How come there is no broker ranking on EliteTrader?...

    Here's the difference: MONEY. It's one thing to give a bad review of a restaurant because of $20 meal you had. It's another dimension when you've blown out your $40k account and are now submitting a super emotional and scathing review of your broker essentially blaming them for the loss. Where...

    How come there is no broker ranking on EliteTrader?...

    Ok, well let me tell you want really happens when you ignore everything. A guy I know just went through this whole process. You get a request from an attorney to remove some reviews and have the user's info sent over, then you ignore it. About a two weeks later you get another letter, which...

    How come there is no broker ranking on EliteTrader?...

    Ok, let me help you think this through. What do you think happens when you ignore or reject requests from $500/hour attorneys who are paid to get results for their clients?

    How come there is no broker ranking on EliteTrader?...

    It's not about me getting sued. Its about having to constantly serve as a liaison between attorneys and anonymous users about disputed reviews. In other words, I would get letters all the time from attorneys requesting not only that the rating be removed but also asking for "Any and all...

    How come there is no broker ranking on EliteTrader?...

    The problem is mainly with anonymous users posting the reviews. In other words, the company being reviewed has no idea if the review is from a legit customer, from a troll, or from a competitor. When I roll out the next ratings system, it will require more authentication from the user posting...

    How come there is no broker ranking on EliteTrader?...

    We had broker ratings for 10 years on this site until last year. It created more problems than it did anything else. Not a month went by that I didn't get a letter from some attorney representing a brokerage firm that was threatening me because a negative / untruthful review was submitted about...

    Samsung Galaxy users with Wives and Girlfriends, take note

    You can't go wrong with the Note 3 or the Note 4. A few of my friends have the Note 4 and they love it. My Note 3 was pretty much trashed so I switched over to the HTC One M8. It's the size of your S5 for the most part and the build quality is outstanding. The camera is great too and the user...

    Samsung Galaxy users with Wives and Girlfriends, take note

    I'm curious if a red flag goes up in your head about your girlfriend's insecurity considering she wanted to through your phone out of boredom in the first place.

    Robinhood New Account Question(s)

    Perhaps that's how you break it down in your head, but in practice they've linked high credit with high suitability. I read recently that the auto insurance industry has been making the same correlation for years now, meaning that those with high credit scores are historically the ones with the...

    Russia's Defence of the Rouble Fails

    Putin is in quite the predicament so it will be interesting to see how he handles this. I wouldn't want to be in his position, that's for sure. It's amazing how the refusal of the Saudis to decrease oil supply has the ability to send so many economies, industries and currencies into a complete...

    'Men Are Idiots,' Says Study In Prestigious Medical Journal

    I'm thinking that the drive to do challenging things comes simply from the higher levels of testosterone in men. Women don't have that level of aggression or risk-taking which is why they hardly ever do something physical that ends up going wrong.
