I have really been enjoying TradeStation … but lately the data integrity has become a major issue.  The Position Graph Bar typically has very accurate quotes, but RadarScreen has different/wrong/delayed quote data.  I just don’t see how you can use a platform where you aren’t sure if the quote data is timely.
( I have been [...]

CNBC Plus

For a while I used to stream my own CNBC from my house for work … I am techie enough to figure that out.   The main reason I set this up was for the Tour De France (when Lance was crushing it).
I just recently discovered CNBC Plus and I have to say it’s really really [...]

I have been a subscriber off and on for a while.  I like the consistent analytical approach to their stock ratings and in particular the IBD 100 and Big Cap 20 rankings.
I now just subscribe to the site and the electronic edition and one thing that really irritates me is that they still flash all [...]

Since I started using Google Spreadsheets I have started to think about other hosted applications … I have used salesforce.com for true CRM before, but what I hadn’t explored was their force.com platform for creating totally custom applications.  They call it a “platform as a service” … I am intrigued and as such I created a developer [...]

The Evolution of an Investor
A great article about the other Las Vegas?
I need to read some of the books that are referenced in this article (Winning the Loser’s Game and A Random Walk Down Wall Street). But for now, I still think I can outperform with my small speculative accounts! However, for my [...]

Yahoo! Groups is another thing I always thought Yahoo! should “corporatized” and they just didn’t get it … Yahoo! Groups could be (or maybe I should say could have been) a Basecamp type product …

I have written before about how Yahoo! has “dropped the ball” and missed opportunities … Here is another one … Google Apps is something a small team at Yahoo! called “Corporate My Yahoo!” or later “Corporate Yahoo!” tried to bring to market … the vision was to take the My Yahoo! interface and use it [...]
