    so where is Peter Beck and the ex-swifters?

    It has been years since I posted, I came back on the site to see how the day trading world is like today. I worked at Swift Trade from 2004-2007. I was doing OK during that period. Eventually, with NYSE changing their rules, I was struggling in 2007 as I was slow to adjust. I was...

    Best Car for Newly Hired Trader

    I suggest you get a BMX from your parents. BMW and Mercedez are for "real" traders.

    Do you think NYSE/nasdaq proposed 2 hour extension is dumb or smart?

    It would be cool... 2 extra hours of making $$$. I like the idea of a break in between like what they have in the asian markets. It would create two extra periods ie) 5 minutes before/after break of fun actions.

    DCN new symbol? Is it trading?

    wow... my buddy at my office long the shares right before it get delisted from NYSE. Later, he got out at the over-counter market for a nice 50% return. Now he is seeing a even better return. Bankrupt stock rocks =)

    Hi boys

    It is clear that the stock is in a downtrend. Unless you know some mysterious reasons why this stock would rebound in the future, stocks tends to move in trends. Stocks are just like physics F = ma, once it has an inertia to go, it goes. I hope you did not go in big on that.

    SwiftTrade Campus

    I observed some awesome traders with high school dipolmas as their highest education. Ironically, there were people with MBA, masters degree, CFA II, etc who tried and never make the cut. Scarfy is right about the %, I revised it to 2,3 out of 10. Willingness to learn is great. To "learn" in...

    SwiftTrade Campus

    The Hamiton guys are making that amount. I don't work in that office but I know. However, the turnover rate at Swift Trade is high and the Hamiton results are abnormal. There are plenty of losers at Swift Trade who don't make the cut and whines like a baby wah wah.... I would give it a...

    Profitable traders:

    coolweb: You seem to know everything from swingtrade/position trader to daytraders. I agree with day traders you need minimum 4 months of learning.
