I still have mine too! And same problem with my wife, mainly because I need an XL now instead of a large. :-) Sounds like a great idea Baron!

I was going to remove this thread due to its high spam content but its such a great illustration of the fraud in this business that I think it will do more good to leave it just like it is. To the OP, if you don't think what you did was dishonest, then your life will be full of misery and...

Ok, I think its time to put this thread out of its misery. Mr. Williams has responded to his critics, some of whom will never be appeased and simply live to destroy threads. Most of the accusations now are just reposts of the same thing from earlier in the thread.

It was valid. His point is that if you are entering orders by hand then the latency speed is almost irrelevant.

dsq, I am not going to argue with you, because we will never agree. I do not care to take the time here to debate man made global warming as you have obviously made up your mind. But your last point proved mine. The Countrywide and Enron's of the world should be allowed to fail, not bailed...

OldTrader, You make some great points and my intention was to broad brush my ideas as briefly as possible. As a general rule, I believe the government should stay out of the way. That includes both roadblocks to current energy sources (i.e. our ridiculous aversion to nuclear power) as well...

I usually don't get involved in political arguments on message boards because it ends in a pissing contest, but I heard the Pickens ad as well and I was instantly skeptical. I have seen a couple of posts by people that seem to be conservative but they are in favor of a government subsidy of...

Moderator Note: 1stockwinner, Welcome to ET. I would like to suggest that you post all of your videos in a single topic to prevent clutter. I have received numerous complaints regarding these but I watched one and other than being a bit boring, there was no flagrant violation. As long...

LOL! (6) :p (actually the only thing they have in common is that they are all democrats, but I'm not sure what college they attended... :) ) In all seriousness though, its probably not a bad buy at this point. I am not sure what the historical numbers are on municipal bankruptcies, but...

That would be my great county, lol. Decades of mismanagement, incompetence and outright fraud have created a real utopia... and to top that, we just elected one of the county commissioners responsible for this mess as mayor of Birmingham. The same guy who created a "charity" to spend tax money...

OldTrader, L. Ron asked about you at the meeting last night. I told him you were trying to stay on the downlow while you were dealing with the naysaying users of prescription drugs. He said to make sure you understood the consequences (you will no longer be allowed to take long walks on the...

Shills exist on every forum, its impossible to keep the persistent from breaking the rules. It is counter productive for a paid sponsor to use them, since it causes this kind of animosity...its much better for them to use their registered sponsor id to answer questions/criticisms, and they...

Short of finding a copy of 2000i as mentioned above, I would say MultiCharts as well, as they are the only other product I know of that uses the same coding structure as EL. I do not use MC, but I did the trial once to check it out. At the time they claimed to support OpenTick, which is a free...

I have no dog in this fight (my apologies to Vick), and I am not the moderator of this forum so I am not here to defend a sponsor. I don't know Timothy in any way other than I saw the Wall Street show. What I think is happening is that some people are a bit jealous that someone has become...

There was a member (TriPack) here awhile back that started a project like this and compiled posts on various topics into a single thread. He called them GEMS. Just do a search for that and you will find a bunch of them.

The data feed is from the exchanges just like the so called "real" feeds. The bigger question you should be asking is if the fills you recieve while paper trading are the same as you will get when you go live. The answer is no, so you need to be prepared for that. There is nothing wrong with...

I have always been a little biased, since I worked for Verizon back in the day, but I would like to know the rationale of Apple in choosing Cingular/AT&T when they picked a phone service (or why they had to be exclusive at all). Their service from way back in the TDMA days has always lagged...

Each forum has a seperate moderator (or moderators) that can only edit their assigned forum. They work on a volunteer basis. As such, it is not a full time job which is what it would require to edit every post that needed it. There is a link on each post that you can report any offending...

First of all, I agree with AAA, his suggestions, as usual, are right on. Even if you have a good strategy and were a seasoned pro, its going to be very difficult to build the account with less than $1k to risk ($1k - margin). Its basically going to be like playing roulette for the first trades...

If you took $10k to $85k in a year, why not go back to that? It would only take a couple of years and you would be running your own fund, full of your own money, with no one else to answer to. Good luck in your search.
