It must be Florida I think I remember president Bush talking about the Teri Schiavo case. [/B] One teeny tiny difference there. Nobody was being charged with a crime in the Terry Schiavo case. That is not the case here. See, we have this thing called the constitution. And in that...

Little bit of game theory here. If you were the jury, knowing that your life will probably be at risk the second you return to your normal routine, if you are going to acquit him, would you do it promptly and piss off the black community by saying basically, sorry, you lose or would you let it...

Question of the day: If Zimmerman walks...and someone kills him...will the Obama administration secretly support the prosecution of Zimmerman's killer? Or will it just be an unfortunate accident? You know...shit happens.

In the future, we need to do a better job of keeping these young children off the boards. Maybe institute a Katy Perry dis-qualifier. :)

You'll always have Range Rover...

Because the firehouse is spraying EVERYTHING! That is his point. The Fed absolutely cannot control a single variable. They are not a surgeon that can operate with precise accuracy. They have to drop an atom bomb on a house to kill a few termites. So while the Fed thinks they are simply...

Nope, can't change it. Come on Martin, I suspect you have yourself a fine British education and most certainly took some stats course in your younger years. You know when you analyze data that it's very sensitive to variables specific to each region. So yes my dear friend in the UK, when...

I'll throw you a bone. Education 50 years ago discretionary for the most part. I think fewer then 15% went to college and those that did, could afford to and pay cash for the most part. When our veterans came from WWII we created the GI Bill which was a small stipend at the time that more...

Here you go chap: http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2013-07-05/how-americas-housing-non-recovery-led-record-income-inequality I'm sure you are well aware of the Gini co-efficient. Here are some of the highlights from the article: "the Gini coefficient had apparently reached in 2006 the...

He also has several aliases and probably a total post count over 50k. Makloda, eqtrder, stock777, ricksaw man, all the same guy. The best theory out there is he has access to the internet from whatever psychiatric ward he has been residing in the last 10 years.

I use to have a ratio that automatically calculated the size of the OR divided into the ATR and if that ratio was greater then 30% I think, I avoided breakout trades. Then on the extremes, if say the ratio was greater then 50% then I actively looked for fades and with size. And if the ratio...

Sorry I never got back to you. Here is one article that details some of the management shifts. http://blogs.wsj.com/deals/2012/04/04/ceo-resigns-at-prop-trading-firm-first-new-york-securities/

Someone was asking about FNYS and I came across this interview. I think this interview encapsulates a lot of what I've said on here as well as others in terms of what a real prop firm is looking for in a potential trader...

Not exactly. I would say 90% of ET is bearish as hell. A large part of the IAII index is bearish. And even most of the commentators on CNBC is bearish. That means we're probably going higher. LOL. Sorry man, sentiment is not in your favor. This is the most hated rally ever and as long as...

We just had a 7% correction. What more do you want? LOL.

I guess I drew the short straw in the Martin raffle. Damn. It's always the other guy. :(

Austin, you have been trading for over 10 years and you really are shocked at how the ES is acting? This is EXACTLY how the ES trades 95% of the time. Yes, we get range expansion on corrections like the one we recently had which gives you great two way action on both the downside and the short...

There is no uncertainty. They send you an e-mail with the EXACT requirements you have to meet before you go live. Just read through every detail of that e-mail.

Well, the knock on them has always been that their site is constantly changing and the rules sometimes change before they get their site updated. I'll ask Michael to jump on this thread and clarify these points. The rule of thumb is always double check with them before you make your first...
