About how much would it cost to develop software that could make about 1000 calculations per second, grab dynamic information from the web or another trading platform, and trade derivatives of stocks through a brokerage by itself? Thank you.
These answers are of little help. An estimate from someone that knows about software would be ideal. Thank you.

Most online stock brokers allow you to track a trend of a certain stock. However, I haven’t found any that would allow you to filter out stocks on certain parameters.

Are there any online stock brokers that have tools which allow searching for stocks based on certain criteria? For example, searching for all stocks which price and trading volume have been going up together the last 3 days.

I am looking to purchase stocks of a few different companies and investing less than $1,000. I will be trading very infrequently (probably once or twice a year).

What is the best company that has the least fees and is very simple to use? Any suggestions are appreciated.

Do you have to report every stock transaction when you file your taxes? I have bought and sold many stocks in 2007 (and lost a lot of money because I was so inexperienced). I want to know if I am going to have a hard time filing my tax return..

Hi everyone,

I’m very new to trading. I’ve started studying how to trade stocks and am already looking forward to reading a second book. I’m looking for an intermediate level book that emphasizes how to analyze companies, what tools to use to analyze them, and if possible, sites that are good for such analysis. What book do you recommend for me? Tx in advance.
