I'm still waiting for a response from Simplex....oh well. Maybe 1 out of 100 resumes will get noticed somewhere.

Great post nevadan.

Have a cookie.

So, if returns are 100%, why do you have max drawdown? Go sell your crap somewhere else.

I had interview with them last year, for assistant trader (bonds). Had 2 rounds, one with recruiting woman (how would you do in this type of blah blah basic stuff), one with actual bond trader I was suppose to trade with, and one with one of senior trading guys. Did good with first 2 , only...

99% of trading books are useless and/or outdated. Maybe a few have a trace of original material, while the rest is just rehashing everything you already know.

Well, you got the right name.

Didn't we all. After all, only millioners post on these forums.

OpusAtlanta is basically ETG which they acquired. Same people, same office, different name. Do a search on ETG, because it's the same thing. Only payout ratios might have gone down, it seems.

Good call. So far, it is happening.

There should be some more conservative options strategies for low volatility market such as gold, no?

This would probably fly better in Options forum. Couple of very knowledgable guys in there can break it down pretty good...

Anyone? Hm...I smell desperation, and it's me. Since noone has replied with anything helpful, this leaves me to conclude that job market in our business is indeed tougher then I thought. I guess now I gotta learn programming and all the stuff to be competitive. SOS

Hmm... this is tougher then I thought. Sending out resumes like paper is free. Still no luck. All of a sudden this profession is so damn hard to....get in. Wish me luck as my time is running out.

Filter out all the noise. Focus on 1 - 2 stocks for starters. Once you see patterns, pull the trigger.

They have it, but I still talk to a guy that works there throwing 1M shares per month. They still charge him 0.0015, I told him he is nuts to be there. If you are a customer, you end up paying more then above rate. Chop chop baby. These f**** charged me that rate, weirdo ecn fees, redi+...

That could be the case, but Blethyn did not give me that option at all on the phone. He said 25k min., 30 recomm. lock up 1 year. Take it or leave it.

Pipp maybe you're right. But they could've done things a lot differently, and now selling the company?? spyglass, Bob was the most charismatic person I met in trading world. And I could talk to him one on one with no problem, he loves talking about markets and different things (if you've...

ETGs moto used to be by traders for traders....something like that. How can you run a successful trading company if you don't know how to trade? If you don't know what trading is all about how can you set up a good environment? I guess you can't, that's why I left. Would you rather work for a...

Actually ETG told me (because I took all my money out) that if I want to come back and work for them (Schonfeld now) that I need to put in 30k recommended (25k minimum) and cannot touch it for one year. They are out of their minds. Plus like the other guy said they sold the firm. What does...
