Search for the wireless icon on the system tray and try to search for your wireless network. Assuming you have a passcode on your wireless network, just click your listed wireless network and enter the passcode. It sounds like your wife had the laptop join her friend's wireless network and...

MMID represents the broker/dealer assigned MMID. If you're trying to send an order to an exchange (method), you will need to identify yourself with your broker's MMID so that the clearing house end will know where to deliver stock to. I know nothing about the Genesis API nor am I affiliated...

Market Maker ID (MMID)

With all due respect, I cannot DISAGREE any more strongly with an open unencrypted channel. It only takes one compromise to make your life hell. A simple compromise would be a neighbor using your open bandwidth to download bittorrent files and say goodbye to your bandwidth and say hello to RIAA...

Since security is not an issue and speed is what you're looking for, all things being equal the difference is negligible for trading if it's swing trading or intermediate term trading. If you're scalping, you'll probably want the piece of mind knowing that a wired connection will not "crap...

The markets (e.g. NASDAQ or NYSE) do not like when participants test in live symbols and expressly prohibit such activity when a broker/dealer applies for any of their services. The NASDAQ SuperMontage test symbols was provided as a way for developers to post bids/asks and test functionality...

Before the uptick rule was repealed, some traders shorted on a downtick "legally" (or so they thought) by purchasing "bullets" from a third party company that bought an opposing call option against the short, i.e. you'd technically be "flat". The SEC dragged their feet on their intepretation...

Macke of Fast Money said something hilarious last night something to the effect: If you get a call from your broker telling you that if you love GM at $20/sh then you'll love GM at $9/sh, smack him on the side of the head... whatever side you want if you're right-handed or left-handed...

For whatever reason, short selling is always stigmatized as "wrong" but the point of trading is to make money. I understand that the arguments to defend the recent short selling is specious at best but the argument that the absence of buying should be honored by holding back the shorts is...

Your computer is going to be "confused" on which path (i.e. broadband connection) to follow and it will probably default to one router if it does "work". A dual WAN router or load-balancer is meant to serve as a gateway usually for redundancy or it has built-in methods to "balance" traffic...

Based on what you're describing, it sounds like it's a network issue on your end. If everyone else seems to be fine and you're experiencing problems it could be your network (DSL vs FiOs vs cable? wireless vs. wired?) or how Laser operates under a quad core. All geekspeak, but quad core's are...

The uptick rule was an artificial hurdle that was an ancient as fractions being used in the electronic markets. However, the fractions were nice though... making the usual minimum spread netted $6.25 versus a $1 now. The next hurdles that make no sense in a free market model are the trading...

To mention the PDT rule to get out of a trade which you seem to characterize as a value trade on BSC is nothing short of odd. You thought that it would climb to $39-40? But you forgot to mention that the stock took a 50% hit overnight, not to mention the drubbing it took yesterday night. No...

Thanks much! CNBC certainly lined up their on-air personalities with some live ones. Although sometimes some of these guys are very easy to love-hate, it's not unlike the variety of personalities on a trading floor/desk. I find this much more interesting to watch than Bloomberg or FOX Biz...

Do you think it will be posted on YouTube? I only caught the tail end where they each wanted apologies from each other. The argument sounded heated upon hearing this from another room in my home. I can only assume it dealt with Spitzer. Can someone be kind enough to provide a synopsis of what...
