    QQQQ trading system for a hedge fund

    To add to all the problems, QQQQ have the rule that does not allow taking short positions on a down tick. Timing i.e. long short becomes much difficult in that environment. Is this rule waived for larger accounts?

    The Real Secret To Trading

    "Frugality is the necessary condition for anyone trying to build something out of nothing." On the otherhand, Frugality also has potential of killing ambition. You learn how to live on little so why bother earning more....no wonder capitalism did not succeed, so far, in Eastern European nations.

    The Real Secret To Trading

    "Who cares if he is cheap? The bottom line is the guy only has the wealth that he has BECAUSE of his frugality." I agree, in corporate US, it should become a law that any company not producing profits i.e. in red, will have even its top executives travel in economy class and stay in...

    Effects of aging population on housing market

    I beg to differ, last year msn reported that a 30 year construction boom is going to hit the east coast from ny to n. carolina. This is not real estate boom but ripping apart old houses and replacing them with new. Good news for builders and those who are sitting on big pieces of land.

    Iran and American Interference

    SouthAmerica, your assumptions and presumptions are ambitious but I doubt they are worthwhile or practical. If Iraq under Saddam could not destablize middle east then Iran has little chance given it is not an Arab nation, it is persian. US has kept German nazis, Japanese hard fascists and...

    Iran and American Interference

    SA, Unlike the mess in Iraq, if US attacks Iran then it would only be a bombing raid via planes and submarine based missiles. No US troops will be sent to Iranian soil so US would not have any stake on ground. If Iran retaliates then that will be followed by more bombing runs and further...
