Arent you the same guy who started this thread? http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=107957

Ok, I just recently learned of this guy and have visited the web site he set up and watched a few of his idiotic appearances on various news outlets such as CNBC. This is HILARIOUS. Tim, if you are reading this, listen up: Much of what I'll say is redundant but you know NOTHING about...

Well if we're gonna post PMs we've gotten from Nathan I may as well post mine here too. :/ NathanGresham wrote on 11-01-07 10:26 PM: oh boy yourself, I am not asking for your punk advice. I can handle 20 contracts, do not need your input if you want to be discourteous. Learn some manners...

Oh boy.

A 4k monthly fee considering what you will need to start out is next to ridiculous. Just so you know, you will hand back that 2500.00 monthly cash salary and then some, not including what you will be paying in commisions. I believe an account with TT, CQG charting, and 2 screens should cost...

Can you be more specific? I'm assuming that the 4000 you are referring to is the MONTHLY fee, inclusive of everything you need (TT, CQG or whatever charting is used, squawk, whatever else), and not inclusive of R/T commisions, but this kicks in after 9 months when you are live. Until...

Bump.

Fitting how their video is modelled after Guy Richie's format in Snatch and Lock Stock. Theyre based in Milan though. I found this amusing.

Hmmm. Interesting. But I believe when you say if you add size on to a working order (increase) you go to the back of the line, you are referring to opening up your "order book" (TT), and clicking the up arrow to increase the size of a selected working order. I was under the impression...

Ok, Agreed, but are any of these places using anything other than the latest version of TT's front-end? If not, can there be a speed difference purely on how a particular firm's network infrastructure is set up, all else being equal? Momo, why do you say Geneva and Jump? What is it that...

Ha, very. Seriously though, does no one have an opinion? Which of the chicago futures shops are most successful?

Okay, here it is... Which is the best futures prop firm in Chicago that trades purely on the screen? Think low turnover/high tenure, consistently profitable, nice and open working environment, open flow of information, ahead of the tech curve, most volume, possibly even a training program...
