Karma? Never traded that^^ No worries : )

Problems? Low volatility, not enough stupid orderflow and HFT's. If you could develop a FinTech around that, I'd highly appreciate it.

Dude, stop posting! Find a way to trade it and don't ruin that edge for the rest of us by explaining it to the muppet - mob!

Hey Wonderboy, I'm sorry that you made that experience with those guys. I have been in contact with them as well when I was looking for a firm and I did not sign up with them since the deal as well as the contract looked really fishy. When I said I would not work with them, they provided me...

Hi Mr. HFT : ) Yes you can buy 1 share as viktor said. Probably the biggest difference will be the cost structure. In the EU most brokers and ECN's charge a percentage of the $value of the deal. In the US everything is per share or per ticket. This means that in the EU it doesn't matter...

That's the exact house you want to avoid XD

Guys, I really don't want to argue...perhaps you are right and your brokers really give you a non aggregated realtime timestamp by timestamp datafeed that usually costs 300$+ per month for free. Most likely though they are feeding their inhouse software the SIP feed, which is filtered so you...

https://www.justice.gov/usao-nj/pr/new-york-man-indicted-17-million-microcap-stock-manipulation-scheme Guy Gentile = Boss of Sure Trader Any questions? Better look at TradeZero...although I wouldn't want to bet the farm on their integrity either...

erik_s, both books are pretty much useless if you ask me. Your first priority should be an accurate time&sales that uses the SIP feed and doesn't consolidate prints. You need to see what prices trade and how much volume there is on every price. Your free stuff is delayed and probably...

Listen Fundlord, cause this will be advice not only for your career but for your entire life: If you want to do A, then learn A and get good at it. If you want A and try to achieve something by learning B you won't go anywhere. Like if you work your entire life just to retire and travel the...

@conduit: THIS! IMO you have to ask yourself the question what you can bring to the table. Finance firms either want highly experienced and specialised people and as a grad you are not one of them. Or they are looking for bendable, "educatable" and moldable waterboys which are dime in a dozen...

Just as Thug said, you need to know what role you want to fit in with regards to the industry. "I wanna be employed by a finance firm" isn't cutting the cheese. You want a trading/quant role -> Phyton, R, Mathlab You want to be a GUI/application guy --> C++ You want to go into...

Walmart is #24, no? Anyway, I'm following this thread. I love the sophistication of trolling you do.

I like that attitude, Mr. Redsails, although a blow up doesn't necessarily correlate with the success of a trader. One thing is for sure, though: This will be a hall of fame thread if you keep posting untill your blow up :cool:

Dude, you are already repeating the same mistakes over and over again. Overbetting with scared money without knowing what you are doing and hoping that in the end you'll hit a homerun. As I said, in case you aren't trolling I really feel sorry for you. In case you are, please go ahead, you...

Troll or not Troll, I whish I could bet against this guy. Any takers? Or at least post your entries and stops in realtime so I can take the other side, Redsails pretty please :p Baron, you should set up a bookmaking - venture and make a market for bets on journals. I would be your best customer

Very good question indeed. You are on the right track and if you keep that question in the back of your head every time you pull the trigger, you are a big step ahead of the crowd. If you don't know who pays you, you are the one that pays the other guys. However, I would not focus on the charts...

very good. thx mr no : )

Yes, I know that. But also that's what I was trying to point out. You do not stare at the limit order book and hope to find an edge by leaning on a big order. Noone would be stupid enough to post one anymore. But when you for example look at the book and there are 50 contracts while 800 are...

A pretty decent analogy, dude. However I still wonder why everyone still mixes tapereading with watching the limit order book. Time&Sales first, then watch how the book reacts to the transactions.
