    Are Market Makers Morons?

    I'm talking about the illiquid ones. I just did a quick glance of my filter list. Random stocks: PCIS, MGEE, PSBH, TRIS, FFHS are all on it. I maybe have 200 on there that I won't touch.

    Are Market Makers Morons?

    I have seen this activity for years during low volume months. And usually low volume stocks. I just took them all off of my radar. It's safer.

    Are Market Makers Morons?

    Its usually uglier with less liquidity. Those stocks DOB is manipulated easier. The suckers are left holding the bag. The guy with the deepest pockets wins.

    Genesis Releases Latest Ping Times Tests

    Yes, the Genesis Inet pings are slow pings to my standards, but an average manual trader wouldn't see the diff. I couldn't live with those times. My times are better. That is what I was saying. There is a difference in ping times when hops are involved. Less hops equals shorter ping times...

    Genesis Releases Latest Ping Times Tests

    We may just not be understanding eachother, or maybe I am not understanding your statement. You stated that you cannot get pings less than 1ms. I was stating that you can see that resolution of microseconds in Linux. I am NOT stating that a linux box is faster on a network than Winblowz...

    Genesis Releases Latest Ping Times Tests

    My pings can get microsecond resolution using Linux. Nothing I do automated for speed is Windows, so I don't really care to change that metric. I performance monitor every app I run in realtime. My custom low-level IMDB runs at a certain CPU level and I monitor that during different mkt times...

    "There is no way you are getting better ping times then 1-2 MS, even if your machine was sitting next to the matching engine on the switch!" I have to disagree with that statement. If you are pinging in Windows, yes, that is the best resolution you can get. Linux is a different...

    trading on AMEX

    I remember once at the open I sent a clearly erroneous order for TTH to exit my position at the 9:30 open. My Limit order erroneous by 5 points on 4000 shares. I placed the order through Arca, so I called Arca for a bust. It ended up that the 2k shares executed through the ARCA ECN and they...

    Todays mass of erroneous trading at 9:30

    They screwed up this sentence: "However NASDAQ’s decision to adjust prices for trades that were executed within the Opening Cross as already communicated in Head Trader Alert #2005-069." Does that mean what was adjusted IS STILL adjusted or busted. CLOWNS!!!!
