TOM should have her on .. and ask her the hard questions it would either distance himself from her answers .. or defend her. but either way .. it would be a high rated segment

it was interesting to hear TOM sold TOS to TDA because of an ongoing SEC case, what the ? She seems like a classic case of the "movie rogue trader" and barrings bank. but she might not have had a criminal mind going into it. And from personal experience the media seems to go for shock value...

Thanks for responding Dolemite Your response helps touch on a better way to ask my question- if the talent keeps moving, wouldn't the company have to have some sort of *brain drain*- apparently every education company has X floor traders or OEX guys- but i often wonder how much of that is...

Hello ET I was just wondering if anyone happen to know so of the details about this splinter group. it was my understanding RandomWalktrading was a former optionetics instructor who went rogue, who (I was under the impression) was the "Secret" Owner of RandomWalkTrading- Apparently that's...

What is the intention of this discussion- I am slow fill me in ... are we bashing bright or asking a question are you debating the Opening only trading style? are you debating pairs- is it a quote hightlight reel? where are you wanting to go with this and why?

The above sounds like a "MAN-DATE" and the we don't need to talk about trading on a traders forum meet up is a tad creepy Just sayin -

I have spoken to a few at cboe and I believe the thought isn't to try to get around the s7, but rather eventually make a relevant test as to the products that trade in house under their roof. Its not a regulation avoidance- its a "regulation relevance". Having someone learn about annuities to...

GregoryG Considering your necessary need to speak on the dangers of leverage (which wasn't the thread topic) and call my comments: "This is probably the stupidest thing I've ever read." Please expound on what clearing firm relationships you have established,- and the minimum needed to...

It's my understanding the prop leverage will come from their clearing relationship. For example 40:1 intranet day leverage isn't unheard of if your flat each day. ThE risk is off and finished before it's cleared. It's the overnight leverage that shows the financial strength of the firms capital...

Thanx everyone for all your comments. This week I actually spent time both at the CME (old cbot building) and the CBOE. asking much of the same questions that came up on this forum. the members section of the CBSX is trying to push for their own version of a MM test or a prop firm test...
