I briefly scanned the links provided by the Google search, and found your S&P500 turns for Nov. 2011. I could not find an explanation for the "-2T" and "-3T" notations. Mind giving me a quick explanation or a a link to an explanation? THanks

____________________________________________________ Dude, that is insulting to the 2-3 million of Americans who suffer from this neurological disease. PBA affects those with multiple sclerosis, ALS, strokes, and other types of brain damage. It has ruined people's social lives. Go tell the...

Luckily, I didn't have any stop orders in place. Figured I got in low at 2.80ish yesterday. There is supposed to be big news coming from the FDA. Is what happened today a sign that the "smart" money is trying to shake out all the weak hands and load up at a cheap price for a good run ahead...

"New Post 08-27-10 08:31 PM Looks like the bottom is in and its all up sailing from here..." My question is about the TIME shown for initiation of this post (and others). What time zone could this possibly be? Or is there some internal clock in my computer that is screwed up? When I...

Can anyone recommend a good book or video on how to interpret/use LEVEL II data screens to spot whether a stock is under accumulation or distribution? Thanks

One thing that the Congressional Budget Office (or anyone else for that matter) can factor in the future cost of U.S. health care is what goes on in the FDA. As traders, many of you should be familiar with the gyrations of biotech medical stocks lined up for their Phase III approvals. Then...

One of the best laughs I had recently was at my local COSTCO in San Diego, where jumbo size shopping carts are the norm. I was browsing the book stall while my wife shopped and saw an obese couple pull up their cart which was loaded to the max with goodies and industrial size shrink-wrapped...

Mr. Bottarelli; Your self-calculated "Track Record" is meaningless -- as testified to here by previous posters. Register yourself with an independent 3rd party such at Collective2 or Trader Track and let your signals be autotraded by an unbiased system. Then come back and show us your...

Hope you don't consider this off topic, but you fellas are talking about taxes here. **** I recently read on an internet post by a supposedly very knowledgeable person that profits from short sale trades are exempt from IRS taxes because there is no "capital gain". I have always declared my...

Wow!! A post on ET where traders/investors actually have a rational discussion which could be of benefit to the rest of us. My hat is off to all of you.

Hi DAV; Along with the fact that IB charts often fail to "KEEP CHART UP TO DATE" (I have to correct this by switching time frames) my biggest beef is that the library of previously viewed charts cannot be edited. Nor does it have a limit so that unwanted charts scroll off and can be forgotten...

Include the most important component of health care – the American People. Obama and congress tout that they are covering all the bases by including the doctors, the drug companies, the HMO’s, the insurance companies, and a host of other “players”. But I see no mention of any...

Well, thanks again, Elliot. After having been audited once for a totally different issue, I'll play it safe and stay away from MLPs.

I thought so, but just wanted to be sure. Thanks

I have read that since UNG, USO and some other ETFs are structured as LLPs, they can be a pain as far as filing income taxes at the end of the year. AlsoI did a few trades of DBA during 2008 in my IRA and got a bunch of nasty looking paperwork about it concerning taxes. Per Yahoo Finance, USO...

During the months of January and February of 2009, average daily volume of this ETF was about 40 million shares a day. Previous 2008 average vol was about 15 million and April 2009 volume is back to about 15 million a day. The "accumulation" indicators I have available to me do not register any...

100 shares of SPY is only 9K. You must have meant 1000 shares.:confused:

Below is a quote from Jay Matulic in the latest Weekly Wizards from AdviceTrade: "Should one be shorting this market? Right now I'm basically in cash. I was short some last week and was in good shape. I'm reticent to go short here because I think the government could go into the futures...

I have had several IRA accounts at MF Global and Vision LP in which futures were traded for myself and my wife by Registered CTAs, which from my understanding is the only way it can be done. The outcome was not happy one though. Registered CTAs are just as capable of losing money as rank...

FROM: http://www.tradingmarkets.com/.site/Daytrading/commentary/lftw/09302005-46122.cfm The "premium" (PREM) or "spread" is the difference between the most active S&P 500 Stock Index Futures Contract (the spoos) minus the actual S&P 500 Stock Index (cash). That difference, which usually...
