Greetings, Here is my website where i am pushing live trading signals generated by my fully automatic trading system. http://www.quantlocha.com/ What is the system? -------------------------- The system is based on measurement of historical data using programs. There are several...

The meditation that you guys are talking about, will make us calm right? In that peace we realize that "choice brings conflict". stay calm. Don't choose. And even the process to go in the meditation stage goes through "stop choosing". Am I missing something? :D So for all the rebels...

All this psychology things we talk about is good, but at the end does it really makes difference? I am not talking about Soros and Buffett. They have something that can not be trained in to average Trader. All that i am saying is, we as species are no different than any other species. look...

Not exactly. Milk yes or No. But it does not affect result 100% as you to throw it away or drink. You might still drink a little coffee without milk. My guess is, we as species are not cut out for such task to do it on our own using our eyes,ears and brain(affected by cognitive biased). May...

I watched the video. It is nothing much related to what i am asking. I just could not find many examples in day to day decisions like what i am asking about. If i work in company, my every decision is shared by several others, team efforts. also outcome is never 100% fail or success. Same...

When a trader takes a trading decision, he is individually responsible for it 100%. And result of that action gives result in binary. Win or loose. How many other real life situations there when a individual is responsible for a decision 100% and result is only binary? Just curious.

If you ever develop a simple system that has the minimum edge of 53% winning, and if you follow it, there is 100% chance that you will make money in the long run.

Dareminator, By far the best thread on ATS. Though I have started independently sometime back, unaware of this thread, I see that i am following similar path. I am using Anmibroker, Iqfeed and IB as my software/feed and broker. I don't have openquant yet in my toolkit. Few questions...

From what I know not many have such model. That is like Utopia. Schonfeld is the only other company I know they had true prop model, but the latest at them is not that good either. Retail trading is fine, but it is difficult to "grow" as a trader. I don't mean just the profit, but overall.

Thanks ScalperJoe. Comparing Focus report, BT stands way way way above compare to others. It is just matter of time when this 80-20 issue will start affecting other firms under FINRA. Not sure of the CBSX model. But why would they stay away from such regulation in the long run? Ultimately...

can somebody please comment on what is "CBSX market model" and how it may make difference?

Most traders loose money, then is that is exactly what to be learn. i.e. what not to do! :-) Interaction with other traders still can be a win-win situation.No body will ask you to share your game plan.Ultimately Humans are social animal. We live in pack to survive. To stay connected with your...

If I am not wrong, 80-20 is GS thing. BT uses GS for clearing. Looking at what changes the industry is going and the heat GS faced before coming out with 80-20 rule, I think other players (Merrill etc) will also follow it. it is just matter of time. Just a guess..

Yeah EdgeHunter, I discounted that. Not esignal's $200, but more like IQfeed $120 or so for 1000 streaming quotes. They are not as top as esignal, but good value for money. Also My comparison is between IB(retail) and BT(prop). with retail IB, you don't need to pay exchange fees. Over all I...

Let me try to understand this 80/20 better. We are talking about the 1st account only. Let’s leave JVC out of it for now. If I deposit 20k with BT . Scene 1: 1st month, I made 10K profit. Does BT get to keep 2K profit? (immediately or eventually)? Scene 2: 1st month, If I make a loss of...

I think this is what Mav meant.... When we say prop trading, more so we mean, the trader is full time trader or at least aiming for. So with 5K the man has to earn his living. Than can be done only with extraordinary Risk which spoils the Reward. So can't be done. For a extreme discipline...

Maverick, Don Thank you for this thread. And thanks to Don for replying. I am (or should I say, I Was?) in the process on joining BT, but what i have learned from this thread and new 80-20 development that did put some doubts in my mind. This is how i compared BT with my IB account. Points...
