Excellent info rufus-------------------let them all hear of the real game!

I think the institutions will try to jam in more liquidity if there is no significant news {earnings, geopolitical, etc.}. they need this run to keep going--------they are vested long------------hahahahaha! I would love a pullback just to get some volatility back but I will not hold my...

Great points you are right.

I will pm you with my suggestions. Give me a few minutes. :)

Electric------------- my advice for you is to focus on your system and not the need to trade dollars for some institution. They are a rough crowd so be very apprehensive when dealing with a system you have developed trading their monies {or their clients monies}. If your system is good and...

Vhehn---------- the 50% number is very relative, as I can say 50% of $10,000 in a year is very doable. Now 50% return with 25 million is a very different target. I agree that hitting 50% a year with an account size of 1 million plus would very well be in the top 1%. I guess I was surprised...

A friend of mine asked me about Rockwell Tradings coin collector system and I do not have any knowledge of this--------anybody have any experience with this outfit? I told him that paid for automated systems are usually in their dying stages-------but I have no idea how this system is performing.

They do vast amounts of------------

The do vast amounts of non-linear trading also. They are in the same market in both directions at the same time with varying ratio's.

I just left tradestation and went back to Esignal for charting and datafeed---------the reasons are too many to list. I guess the ts customer support person who answered my complaints about freezing data feed and quotes up to 6 seconds behind my xtrader quotes with, "bummer dude" was about all...

LMeyers----------my comments on commissions in the HFT thread was not an attack on you, but I was attempting to get the focus on only the cost of a trade redirected to what is important. The main importance is how the system performs and what is the monthly return in my opinion...

No---------but I do tend to agree with the more hawkish members on these threads when dealing with geopolitical issues. I served time in the U.S. Air Force as an AFSC 81150 and I am a conservative voter so I have a very harsh stance when terrorism is discussed. Terrorism is the only real...

Have you read the "High Frequency Trading" thread? That is how I like to make money.

I do feel the current situation is such, underpriced oil and overpriced stocks---------so I think oil will go up and the market will go down by the end of this month.

A FCM broker principle recently told me, a system with only a 30% yearly return and never more then 10% drawdown during the year would bring me more money to trade then I would know what to do with--------I was shocked by this actually. I had always thought 50% and 10% was the levels that would...

What choice do they have to gain some liquidity to short stocks. Also have you noticed how the market does not always just take off when oil drops------------because the oil sector stocks are getting hit then with profit taking. There have been several days in the last two months when oil...

No----not imminent. All words with never any actions!

Yes you are correct as the hedges are hurting this year----------that has been my premise on several threads in the last several weeks---------- the question is why. Hedges have been long oil while also building large core short positions in several areas, and one of the big areas was GM...

TGregg------------ Actually I listened to the congressman noted in the article from a radio interview with the press yesterday, and that got me to start looking into the recent uptick in this suitcase nuke news. If you call the congressmen's office you will see that this is not just a "little...

The link to UPI shows the reporting agency that reported the backpack radiological device story from my earlier post-----------it had the UPI press logo for the story. This link to UPI was to show "Cable" the reporting agency of the story--------so Cable could see the story did not just come...
