Thanks for the tips, UK... Anyone else have any experience in this area?

I'm interesting in switching to QuesTrade for my QQQ trading. Reason: my trading size is always > 5,000 shares, so the Schwab (CyberTrader) 5,000 share maximum more than doubles my transactions costs. QuesTrade has no maximum. I called to inquire, and the phone rep told me that being a...

Anyone?

I know this issue has been discussed in the past, but the old threads are somewhat dated by now. What are the current top choices for remote trading? My particular situation: I trade ETFs with a self-developed black-box system. Therefore, software and datafeeds are a non-issue for me...

Very well said, my friend. You are among the minority of U.S. citizens who still deserves the name "American". I fear my country is becoming a nation of spineless appeasers... fat, happy self-involved nimrods who don't believe that liberty (or anything else) is worth fighting for. They...

I won't be charging a fee. My question primarily involves his end... can he open an account with a prop firm in a corporate name?

Here's the situation... I'm a professional trader in Texas, trading my own retail account. My brother is a lawyer in Colorado. He wants to open an account with a prop firm in his corporate name, and trade the account with my help. He says it's important (for tax reasons) for the prop firm...

I'll be happy to. That "BS" is the eyewitness account of a US federal judge (who initially opposed the war). Seems like a fairly credible source to me. www.instapundit.com/archives/011552.php

Just came across a great article that sums up the situation pretty well. To me, few things are sadder than the torture of children and babies. Using our military to end such things makes me happy and proud to be an American. To my mind, NO other justification is needed. Here's the...

Nothing has changed for the better??? We are uncovering the mass graves of Saddams political enemies. Hundreds of new bodies aren't being added to these graves every month. The children's prisons have been emptied and closed. I guess these minor little details don't count as a...

Some of the truest words I've ever read on ET

I frankly wasn't sure what to make of 40, but after reading this post it seems so obvious... I'm almost ashamed that I didn't catch on earlier. Tampa masterfully demonstrates how a little sarcasm/humor can be brutally effective at revealing the core truth of an issue. Great post Tampa...

OK - just a crass & flagrant attempt to get this noticed by the right people... I can't believe there's nobody else on ET working with eSignal ActiveX and running Windows 2000. Anyone???

Can anyone else offer some input? Am I the only person experimenting with eSignal ActiveX who's running Windows 2000?

Yes, I'm aware of the meaning of the error number. But identical code runs fine under Win98, and throws the error under Win2000. Maybe a security issue? An ActiveX permissions problem? Has anyone been able to make the sample time and sales application work on a Win2K machine? Thanks...

This question is for those programming with the new ActiveX features of eSignal (7.4). Has anyone been able to get the GetTimeSalesBar function working under Windows 2000? It looks like it works correctly under Win98, but throws a Run-time error (-2147023898 (800703e6)) under Win2000...

So what you are saying (explicitly) is that advertisers equate post quantity to page views, and they believe that high post quantity makes their advertising more effective (regardless of post quality). What you are also saying (implicitly) is that advertisers don't recognize the importance of...

This is so true and self-evident, that supporting evidence is hardly required. But for those in doubt, just see the "congratulations Nitro" thread under chit-chat.

Exactly. Remove both of these counterproductive items. Talk about return on investment... a simple 2-minute code change, and ET would be vastly improved.

There will always be things that are fervently believed by one person, and dismissed as useless by another. These differences can make for interesting discourse, and are not the problem on ET. The problem is simple rudeness... borne of anonymity and driving the non-juvenile users away. I...
