What 90 year old spends ANY time thinking about HFT?? Go enjoy life Munger! He doesn't sound all that smart to me; wasting his last few precious moments worrying about this issue.
If that's true then perhaps there is some reason for it. I'm sure if you make a better effort to behave, then others will also make a better effort.
Hope you are enjoying this amazing NYC weather!
Absolutely! Marketsurfer has ALWAYS created a source of contention here and only NOW he wants to leave? How convenient is that!!
His method is getting slaughtered and this was an easy way to brush that journal under the rug :D
I never said it was; which makes bragging about it all the more strange. Especially when the quarter has been dismal for you.
But, alas, no need to continue this. We've exhausted this particular subject. Onward and upward. :D
The implication in his post was that you were bragging about something that isn't true. Perhaps he is mistaken, I do not know. Losses are not a character issue but having consistent losses while bragging about success is a character issue.
When you incorrectly speak about TA, I usually post something that weakens your case. You may not find that to be valuable but perhaps someone else does. Everything is relative.
I think providing evidence of character issues is value adding. It helps other posters get a better idea of who to take seriously or perhaps who is just full of hot air.
You are very gracious and perceptive to point out the OP's precarious situation. We can only pray with all our might that the OP finds himself able to work his way out of this untimely and most unflattering position.
