Here's kind of a mish-mash of links & things having to do with trading...

• Quotes for NASDAQ pre-market trading
• Quotes for NASDAQ after-hours trading
• Brett Steenbarger's TraderFeed blog or some of his trader development links. Recently (06/15/08) discovered that he's working on a new book and has started a blog for it: Become Your Own Trading Coach
• This UK site on Technical Analysis may have some useful things
• This link has functions and systems that were published in the Traders' Tips section of Technical Analysis of Stocks and Commodities magazine.
• Market Technicians Association
• The Institute for Financial Markets
• Phantom of the Pits - An almost book-length interview with a pit trader who wanted to be called Phantom. It has some good insights into how to trade successfully.

Discussion forums:

• Elite Trader Forums (one of the best threads I've read on that forum is titled AHG - Profitable Strategy for Struggling Traders; another recommeneded thread is System development with acrary, but I have not yet read the whole thing)
• Futures Magazine Open Outcry
• Traders Laboratory Forums
• Trading Blox Trader's Roundtable
• The Van Tharp Intitute Trading Forum

Point & Figure Charting:

• A thread on an EliteTrader forum titled Learning to read Price Action with P&F Charting
• Point and Figure Library by Marc Rivalland
• Point&Figure in Real Action
• Bull's-Eye Broker (software) Point & Figure Charts

Specifically related to futures and commodities is the new Futures page. I'm not quite sure yet if everything should go on this one page or be separated, so things may change.

I'm currently using Interactive Brokers, along with T Rowe Price, Fidelity and Wells Fargo. Keeping funds diversified amongst institutions is a good thing™, but I may have gone a bit overboard and perhaps should do some consolidation...

EDGAR (Electronic Data Gathering And Retrieval)
FRED (Federal Reserve Economic Data) - a database of over 3,000 U.S. economic time series.
Time Series in Finance

Taxes? There's the Tax Guide for Traders by Fairmark and GreenTraderTax guides.

For programming related to trading, try some of these resources:
