lol then i'll take that as an unequivocal no, you have no intention of intellectual honesty. k, carry on 'hapaboy'

maybe i was unclear, i meant how do YOU rationalize the confluence of specific circumstances i listed... are you convinced just by the sheer volume of rebuttals in existence? can you present any portion of those reams to answer any of the questions i listed

quit spamming the thread, this info is all in the link. are you just trying to obfuscate the conversation or what?

jzlucas, i wish i had definitive answers and theories for you. unfortunately i only have questions. and i think it's healthy to have questions, and strange to me that anyone could be so certain of either possibility, let alone assert that certainty as strongly as hap is comfortable doing...

i feel sorry for you bro. why you so choked up with anger? you don't even know me

i was there and suspect foul play along with the majority of new yorkers, nevermind the mountain of dubious govt actions and clear political and financial gains. i believe the key players were far too inbred for it not to be an inside job. most people just aren't prepared to believe something...

damn, popular mechanics is in on it too?! awful. those rebuttals are weak and the author discredits himself by ending every counter argument with self-assured certainty

the voters are responsible

anyone having trouble with QM charts not updating in TS this morning?

yeah i hear ya. if you're trading interbank (not that i've ever watched it or have any intimate knowledge of it), i would assume the interference is removed, at least with regard to running of your own personal stops that i read so much about with small retail shops. if i had to trade fx, i...

prolly easier to do in markets where your broker isn't working against you (pretty much any market but retail spot fx). i don't know about monthly doubling, that's impossible to sustain for obvious reasons above a certain size. .. but doubling annually is definitely possible, within reason...

k, now its back. from ts chart, looks like the freeze is now 1530-1550. wierd

i always thought QM traded until 1430 then reopened at 1515, but it looks like something funny is happening with it today, can anyone confirm or am i missing something i should know in tws, the close price was updating until a few mins ago but there are no bid or ask in tradestation...

did the trades with erroneous commissions have anything in common?

it seemed obvious to a lot of people that kerry was more qualified to fight a war in a culturally empathetic manner which is really what was needed in this particular situation. it's too bad kerry wasn't more of a standard guy's guy because i honestly believe he had the fiber to win, or at...

game theory is a good framework for studying human behavior. "The Evolution of Cooperation" by Robert Axelrod is a good read http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0465021212/sr=8-1/qid=1141180522/ref=pd_bbs_1/104-6399438-6523147?%5Fencoding=UTF8

if nothing else, this thread demonstrates rather clearly that the NYSE specialist does not conduct a straight forward, intuitive, or consistent market making process.

how do you know this?

don't assume too much. i've been making more per year, for the last 3 years trading futures independently than i was in a support role on the fixed income floor of a major bank after 5 years. god, do i sound that ignorant. i'm just into trading, not regs, and i'm fully systematic with manual...
