The Sungard deal is done....where did you come up with this AB Watley story?

Essex and Susquehanna.

Your bio says you live all over the world....do you sometimes call the U.S. your home? Are you a U.S. citizen?

Good post. You are 100% correct, my statements are as much hearsay as Caliber's. The difference is that I have been with Andover for five years, and he trades at another firm with his own agenda.

I think some of you are missing the point... I completely understand how this topic is relevant to the message boards...but more importantly, the truth should be stated. As he has mentioned so many times, Caliber works at/for Hold. As such, he is in no position to comment on Andover...

"Once again, for those Andover traders, I AM UPDATING THE BOARD ON NEW NEWS THAT CAME UP ABOUT THE BUYOUT. I didn't start the original board, someone else did." YOUR "NEWS" IS NOT ACCURATE...SO STOP POSTING!!!!!!!!!

Why would Sungard buy Andover and then close down the daytrading side and let hundreds of traders just walk away? It would seem rather foolish to let all that clearing money go to another firm (Hundreds of millions of shares each month.) Please stop with the obvious false rumors...

I didn't "pick and choose" what you can say or not, I just refuted a completely false statement. The Sungard deal would not have affected the daytrading side at all.

"I just got the info and thought that the Andover traders would be relieved, considering that Sungard planned to get rid of that part of the business, possibly causing them heartache finding a new place, and for other traders who planned on joining Andover and possibly hesitated cause of the...

For someone who doesn't work at the firm, you seem "to know" an awful lot about Andover. Just concentrate on trying to get guys into the empty Hold Bros. office and leave your rumors off the message boards.

"I searched on Hold Brothers and there seemed to be a lot of negative feedback (but none of it was too recent)"... There is no one left there to write anymore feedback. Most of their really good traders left for Andover a long time ago.

Sunguard wants the self clearing part of Andover and The Hammer software.

It looks to me that you keep setting your stop loss points out of the money....even when you had a good trade that was way in the money. If you (hypothetically) are a point in the money, don't put your stop loss at break even or worse. If you are going to trade that way, you need to give...

Many firms have shave programs built into their systems. It will automatically place you at the best bid/offer. That crap was annoying back in the fraction days, but now that the "spread" is a penny there's no point.

You said $0 commission with ECN rebates. What happens if you remove an ECN?

A newbie like you should be completely flat in a news event stock. Let the guys who have capital to risk place their bets.

What a joke. MSFT is crossed all over the place, even during the slow lunch hours. When AMEX is best bid/offer, SOES orders get filled through the market 5 or 6 cents higher. Most of the guys in my office have long ago switched to trading the NYSE, I guess this will be the final straw for the...

Last year they lost most of their really good traders to Andover in Hoboken. Guys who were with them for years had nothing good to say after leaving.

Is your keyboard missing the letter Z?

-13.0??? That # was ridiculous.
