  • Where can I see all the bid and asks of stocks?

    I want to be able to see all of the current bid and asks of a stock but I cant find a website or program that does so. I want something similar to http://bitcoin.clarkmoody.com/ which is all the bid and asks of something called a "bitcoin" but I want to see it for stocks on the NYSE or other markets.

  • Is it ok to reccomend someone for a job when I havent started working at the company yet?

    So basically, I had a 1 summer internship as an engineer at a power plant and then they gave me a full time job offer which I accepted and will be taking up in about 2 months (that's when i graduate). And I have a friend with the same qualifications as me and is looking for fulltime employment and he asked me if I can reccomend him at the plant for a job. So im wondering if it is ok/professional for me to ask my manager or HR at the plant if there are any openings when i have not officially started working yet?

  • did i miss my window of opportunity with this girl?

    So this is what happened. I live in the dorms at my school and this girl that lives across the hall from me was in the study lounge and i go and join her. we talk for about 3 hours and shes saying things like how she feels so connected to me and what not. I tell her about the movie angels and demons and she said shes going to watch it. a little later she leaves to her room and says she will see me later. about 10 min after that her room mate texts me saying i should come by to hang out with them. so about 5 min pass and i head over to their room. we chat a little bit, about 15 min and her roommate says she has to leave to do homework. so me and the girl i like are alone and she suggest we watch the movie. so we set it up and about 40 min in she said shes tired and that we should finish the movie tomorrow (which is now today). I say that's fine and leave. So during this 40 min of watching the movie i was basically a pussy and didn't try to make a move :/ ... i know i should have, i dunno waht i was thinking. and now today I text her saying if shes still up for finishing the movie and she responds that shes not at her place right now(it IS super bowl sunday...) and that tomorrow we will finish it. I respond "for sure"

    so im asking, did i miss my chance completely? do i still have a chance or is my window completely closed? if we do indeed finish the movie tomorrow should i just jump straight into making some moves? what are you opinions! thanks!! :]

  • Should I say I have my degree on an application?

    So i'm a senior in college and i will be graduating in may 2012. I am applying for jobs now but I don't know what to put down on the application for this situation:

    the job is entry level, I fit all the qualifications, but they require a BS in electrical engineering.

    I will have my degree by the time I plan on working there... so should I say I have my degree? or should I say I dont. I cannot explain my answer, its a drop down menu where you can choose "yes" or "no"

    I don't want their automatic system trashing my application because i don't technically fit their qualifications as of now...

    so please tell me, should I say I have my degree or no? thanks :]

  • Is this a spanning set of R³ (Linear Algebra)?

    {(2,1,-2)T, (3,2,-2)T, (2,2,0)T}

    the "T" stands for transpose

    I did gaussian elimination and worked it down to this (i think its right)

    (4x1-2x2-3x3)*(2,1,-2)T +(-2x1-2x2-3x3)*(3,2,-2)T + ((x1+x2)/2)(2,2,0)T

    And this is where i get stuck... how can i tell if this is a span of R³? What do i look for? what do i do from here? any help would be great!

  • how accurate is paper trading to real live trading in the stock market?

    So ive been practicing paper trading for over a year now and im willing to invest real money soon. I had a mock account at about $25,000 and was able to make a steady 200ish dollars a day... not bad i'd say... but i KNOW its paper trading and i want to know before i invest real money is how accurate is my paper account to real money? cuz i know that some of the trades that i got on paper trading wont be filled in real money because somebody else could have gotten that stock at that price from that buy/seller instead of me...

    so... anyone with experience in the real market and can compare it to paper trading? If i make money consistently in paper trading will i make money consistently in live trading? the more info the better, thanks :]

  • RC circuit (parallel and in series) help please?

    so heres the circuit, ill do my best at drawing it, but ill explain it too

    . . . R1

    Vi---/\/\/\/------------------------Vo

    . . . . . . . . . .| . . . . . .|

    . . . . . . . . Cap. . . . R2

    . . . . . . . . . .| . . . . . .|

    . . . . . . . . . .| . . . . . .|

    . . . . . . . .ground . ground

    ok so you have Vi in series with a resistor (R1) and in parallel are a Capacitor, and another resistor, and Vo.

    with the following conditions find Vo

    Vi= 9u(t)

    R1=10 ohm

    R2 = 1K ohm

    C = .1F

    assume R2>>R1 and that R2 is a bleed resistor

    pleaseee help. :]
