  3. 1 long loser (somehow), -220. Patience burns me again. Got pennied on a couple of others that would have been nice winners had I been filled.

    Yahoo Finance has changed its format so you can't get more than the last few hours worth of news consolidated for the stocks on your list. You used to be able to click "additional headlines" to get older stuff, and it would still be consolidated. Now you have to click each stock in your list individually to get any older news that doesn't fit on the first page. A bit of a pain.

    Can anyone recommend another news source that makes it easy to scan for the news on all your stocks at once?

  4. sucre,

    i use cbs marketwatch.com...click on latest stories and it give headlines sorted by time...

    symbol first then headline...then click for story if you want...

    it takes about 5 minutes to go through the news from last nights close to the present...

    it has saved my ass on many occasions...

    Don,

    Would you be "okay" with posting
    number of issues filled and
    number of shares, along with your p/l ?

    Thanks

  7. Thanks, I'll check it out.

    Checked Yahoo a couple of minutes ago and it seems to have changed back to the old format, so who knows what happened.

    What I like about Yahoo Finance is that you can create a portfolio list and it will just display the headline links pertaining to stocks on the list. You don't have to sift through headlines on stocks you don't trade. You also don't need to enter stock symbols individually to pull up news.

    Don,

    Regarding the CME memo, will that take affect this month - meaning option expirations will be the 27th and not the 20th?

    Thanks,

    C
