What would Jesus Trade? Well Jesus Velasquez says "Short this shit into the ground".

Had a couple of YM mkt. buy stops fail to trigger on Friday afternoon. First time ever having any problem with IB & stops. Anyone else with IB weirdness on Friday afternoon?

Yea I got that message too. A couple of YM stops failed to trigger after that. ????

$100 a day huh? Seems ridiculously easy a goal to obtain yet remains elusively out of the reach of oh so many. My advise is to stay away from the E-Mini's and options in the current market, however if you desire to be parted quickly from your money and suffer undue psychological distress...

Well it's been about 5 weeks and I'm still waiting for this account conversion. :mad:

Man has created religion to give affirmation and reason for his existence in this world. Religion, to paraphrase John Campbell’s “The Power Of Myth” is the software, the operating system that runs our hardware. What is perfectly good for one is useless for another. It doesn’t matter...

Excerpt from George Carlin on Religion. ”When it comes to bullshit, big-time, major league bullshit, you have to stand in awe of the all-time champion of false promises and exaggerated claims, religion. No contest. No contest. Religion. Religion easily has the greatest bullshit story ever...

Yikes! I just read on another board that they trotted out Old Abby Jo on CNBC. Well that's the end of this rally-bounce, she has become a great contra indicator. Did she say if she still though that Enron was a good value?:D

def, Thanks for the reply. Yes I'm in the U.S. At least the fact that there is a huge backlog makes sense. I don't mind waiting. I just wish that customer service would be more straightforward in their response instead of telling me that there is a glitch or to try again. I mean I generate...

I have tried to consolidate a stocks and a futures account per IB instructions and I realize it's done over a weekend, but nothing has been done in over 2 weeks. IB help keeps telling me "there is a glitch, try again". Anyone that's done this conversion, did you have to re-sign any customer...

I especially like when Maria Barfaroma was on the floor and after seeing the futures locked down would say "well folks it looks like we are gonna see some selling (through lisp) at the open". What a world class journalist huh? And now she has a book and website of her own! Yea baby, I have to...

The last time I smelled a reversal like this I found myself under a stank-nasty bottom.

probably after CSCO reports. Then another and another........it's a relentless grind down. When CNBC goes off the air for good and Maria B. starts collecting unemployment and the average Joe doesn't want to hear a farking word about stocks anymore, we may get a nice rally :).

By far it has to be AJC. What a jerk! Cohen favors industry leader Enron... From an October 2001 article So what stocks should you buy? In tech, says Cohen, Goldman's analysts particularly like Dell and Sun Microsystems: "There are issues about global demand, but we think the worst...

Huois Compared to what I did this week you are doing great. My e-mini career started and ended this past week. I've been trading stock and options for years but wanted to give the mini a shot. After transferring funds from an IB stock account, I started trading on Monday. After a couple of...

New agreement mentions a "universal account" of securities, options and futures. Don't see anything on the website, since when is this type of account available? Anybody have one?

Bouncer is a telephone caller I.D. device which "bounces" unwanted calls. I just happened to glance at the one on my desk one day when I was registering for some silly web site and needed a user name. Worked out fine for a trading handle 'cause I always like to trade for a bounce off support.

I'm using a 3Com 3C950B-TX with no problems. You can probably get one for about $30. I've also run TWS through an Intel ISA nic card. Linksys nic however are a no go.

Trading4life: I'm running IB through a Linksys router and 3Com 3C905B-TX nic with no problems at all. Like you I originally had a Linksys nic which was not compatible.
