yes. they do. they are often reported late which is why you might not think so.

This whole thread is idiocy. Dark pool transactions happen at the same NBBO (the same price as the "regular" markets.) If a large investor wants to sell a block of stock that would drop the stock if they just dumped it on the NYSE, why not see if they can cross it in a dark pool and meet a...

who are you? do you really think that string of percentages adds to zero????????????

Trigger, you need to be careful. I'm going to say this in the kindest way possible, but you are looking like an idiot. You obviously don't have any idea how markets find prices. There is no "they" to fix the "problem" and there is no "problem" to be fixed. Your entire argument about daily...

Surf, don't be an idiot. Prices are not coin flips. 5 minutes with Excel (if that's all you got) would show you there is serial dependency on some timeframes. Add that to some fairly predictable elements of volatility and you're close to having something interesting. This can be quantified...

Nobody is on the floor anymore, even at the Nymex! :p

Been short since the open on 4/2/07 and still short. What makes you think it looks like a buying opportunity?

I don't think you'll find it. First of all, I don't know how much finance is taught as evening courses. Second of all, the academic world doesn't think profitable trading is possible, and certainly not that TA works. I don't think you'll find a college level class anywhere teaching TA but I...

It can be a good way to practice, and I'd recommend you try it. However, be aware that it is TOTALLY different than trading. Just because you don't lose money in a sim, there's no guarantee at all that you can match that performance trading. The main problems with trading (at least for the...

What is the point of a post like this?

You CANNOT be serious?!?! You actually paid this guy?!?!?!? Well, I guess there's not much left to say. If you still have any spare money laying around I have some real estate I'd love to sell you....

that's an example of a total bullshit line. i've met tons of traders who lost money taking profits too soon, out of line with risk, etc etc. the world does not need more trading platitudes.....

The bottom line is this market monk guy was obviously a fraud and it became apparent as time went on that his gig was trying to get $10,000 out of a few people from the internet. This forum probably had quite a bit to do with him folding up and ending his scam so I think you need to keep in...

Yikes! Are you serious?! Can't be....

Yes.

No.

I hate to state the obvious... but if the market isn't following through much as of late, isn't it appropriate to fade moves? It is possible to make money daytrading doing nothing more than selling new highs of day and buying new lows of day. A few refinements can make that a very profitable...

I have to confess: I might have had something to do with this guy vanishing. Might have had something to do with me suggesting that collecting fees for "teaching" based on falsified trading performance could possibly construed as intent to defraud. Anyway, good riddance!

nzbryant says he's an introvert....

I made an attempt at being openminded by tring to meet the guy. His response to me pretty clearly marks him as a fraud. THe setup (his performance this year) is so outlandish that it alone pretty clearly says something is not kosher. However, is it possible? Maybe, with some element of luck...
