    It's starting to unwind!!!

    Yes absolutely. Unfortunately I have little time to post on ET and when I am blasting shit out I just spill it. My highschool english teacher would have a shit fit, but of course that the beauty of the internet, nobody marking you work or checking your grammar, well most of the time anyways. LOL.

    Italian finance minister says Alan Greenspan is as dangerous as bin Laden

    LOL, perfect. The more I read this weekend the more I can't help thinking, if the wizards at all the financial regulators had just pulled their heads out of their asses and listened to what short sellers have been saying and doing, instead of villifying, and crucifying them, they would have...

    It's starting to unwind!!!

    Yep, exact same double talking, stuttering ass , liar, foul ball cocksucker. The same guy who gave the big speech on Fri. and said ok all answer all your questions now, took like 1 hard ball question , said to himself oh' fuck, then bailed. Never seen a news conf. end so abruptly. Page right...

    Prop Systems Trading

    Now that most of the simple answers have been covered off let me add these points. The reason 'true prop firms' (those that back their traders 100% and don't make $ on commission markups), have an aversion to trading futures is much more sophisticated. Here are a few reasons: 1. Bringing...

    Why doesn't Merrill 'cancel' merger with B of A?

    I guess naked shortsellers aren't the only ones who can manipulate the market eh fly?

    Why doesn't Merrill 'cancel' merger with B of A?

    Call me crazy but I have believed right from the begining that the whole deal was a sham. I think the deal was just a 'safe harbor' deal for MER. A way to give them cover during the panic shit storm. They knew they were in the market's sights and rather than just sit there and try and defend...

    Ambac ABK drops the bomb and plunges AH

    Geez lucky thing those nasty short sellers couldn't get their hands on this thing. I mean it may have gone down violently if the big bad shorts were permitted to do their evil work. Oh wait...................... the fucking thing is going to ZERO anyways!!! Good job Paulson and Christopher...

    Thin market order game newbie questions

    It's called 'pegging' . It's an automation tool to stay best inside bid/offer. There are many different types, most alot smarter these days than they used to be when u could game them. Using a hidden order will overcome the peg because it can't 'shadow' you or 'leap' you if it cannot see you. Of...

    LEH is a great franchise and Wall Street will not let it go the way of BSC

    Red, I can assure you that you don't want what this guy is on. It's called acid and he dropped one too many. As a consequence his brain is completely fried as evidenced by these wild fucking halucinations this dude is having. HAHA LOLOL

    To all Vista users out there...

    The question I have for you is........... why would anyone buy a copy of VISTA? It is garbage, period! I rencently bought 5 new machines from Dell and was forced into taking them with VISTA (or pay a downgrade fee of $190). Guess what I spent a day doing? You guessed it, ditching VISTA and...

    Scaling Up A Trading Startegy

    Up to those levels probably. But there is the obvious issue of liquidity, drawdowns, sharpe ratios , and all the metrics that suddenly become much more important when the size MUM becomes much larger. Individuals risking 10k of their own capital tend to view risk quite differently than a manager...

    Is Last Atlantis still operating?

    Why all the renewed interest in this all of the sudden anyways? I traded the 'pick em' system briefly in 05 when I was entertaining the idea of setting up a group to do it exclusively. The software was pretty slick and there was without question opportunity and money to be made. I was...

    When orders are routed out

    This should be a simple answer; if your resting limit order is sitting passively and being displayed at the inside and someone sweeps with a market order they will be charged for removing liquidity and likely a routing fee. There are a couple of important points here however. 1. You need...

    SEC Extends Order Limiting Naked Short Selling Through August 12

    Thanks nutmeg, well put. Nice to see how some can communicate quite well using a couple of well stated paragraphs instead of having to pontificate and refer to numbers that even they admit are potentially erronious, even 'unknowable' . As for your bullshit flytiger.......... well, I hope...

    SEC Extends Order Limiting Naked Short Selling Through August 12

    Hey asshole, I guess the reason I missed the fact that you have repeatedly stated you don't know what the % of naked shorts turn into FTD's is because I get tired of reading your monotonous bullshit drivel posts. The same lame fucking blah, blah everytime, perhaps thats why. On the other hand...

    SEC Extends Order Limiting Naked Short Selling Through August 12

    AMEN !! Thank you Cat for actually adding something of value to this ridiculous circular cry-baby arguement. All the longs leaning on this arguement about the 'boogie-man' (read short sellers) while they get their asses handed to them because they are in stocks that just fundamentally have...

    Dell's "Deals" Not So Good.. Thanks to Vista

    Going to XP from Vista is not a downgrade its an UPGRADE. VISTA SUCKS DONKEY BALLS!!!!!!! and Microshit should be sued for forcing it on people. When you order a new Dell of course you can have XP installed on your machine........................ if you want to pay the fucking downgrade...
