Just wanted to touch on trading. I've been trading for almost 5 years. Never made 7 figures that people talk about, but I did make low 6 figures in 4 out of the 5 years. It is a fun job of course if you are making money. I would love to go work for a Wall St. firm to learn new things about...

I think Bright has a big remote trading program! Their website is www.stocktrading.com

Hey Hitman! I did not want to give any advice, you got lots of that on here. But I couldn't help it. I wanted to say that the way she treats you is your own fault! You even encourage her to treat you this way. For some reason most people including me take things that they have for granted...

It is amazing how quickly things can turn around, just six months ago they seemed do be doing well. Probably will have very few prop firms left after all is said and done.

Hi Gene! I know what you mean, I'm trying to automate my strategies right now. Some days the automation does much, much better than I do. Other days automation is a bit behind, but in a few months I hope to get it fine tune it!

What about a white box system, where you put in the algorithms you want, and you put in the stocks that you want to trade. I know that in low volatility market it is tough. If we ever get back the days on NYSE like a few years ago, when market would rip 5% in a single month, this system could...

I thought about selling the white box software, but traders can plug in their own algorithms. You can record data during the data, run a simulator on the program after the closel, test your algorithms, and then put them to work.

Hi. In that case, I don't have a black box trading system. In my case, I can look up exactly why a stock was bought or sold, very nice feature for perfecting the algorithm!

I get the data from SLK, since my interface works through redi plus. But I think you can get data almost anywhere. Dont' know why it's such a problem???

I do not have ITS, I don't know what that is. Unfortunatelly my knowledge in this field is not very extensive. Can you please tell me what ITS is?

Do not have any problems with data. And the system is in real time of course, what would the point of it be, if it wouldn't be in real time. However, new version that we are working on will have a server, with ability to hold about 1500 stocks. I only trade NYSE, so 1500 is a good number I...

A friend of mine, who is a programmer wrote the program. It is pretty simple, but it does everything I asked him to. It is done in VB. Right now we are working on a more complex system in C++ which will encompass several different strategies, including opening, longs, pairs/spreads, as well...

By black box, do you guys mean automated trading? I currently have an automated program that is for long side only. I'm in the process of creating algorithms, both buy and sell! I've been testing the software for about a month now, only 3 down days before commissions during this period of...

Trader 99! Just wondering why leave an institutional career for daytrading? Just personnal curiosity!

Bright has an internship program for college students. Great way to learn and get your foot in the door!

Hey Guys! I have only used redi. What other software would you recommend for trading listed stocks. Thanks

I have a matrox dual 400+ card. Works great. Running win 2000.

I think for a beginner who has capital $.01/share is a very fair deal. I wouldn't pay any more than that. Will be very difficult to turn the corner!!!!!! Firms like Worldco, Bright, Generic, Echo, L&S are able to give you a penny a share. Also try to be in an office that has profitable...

JK9, I was wondering how long have you been trading? And for how long have you used each platform. Thanks

When I was at Worldco in 1998 they were talking about going public next year!
