Was there a rebalance announcement from S&P yesterday afternoon? I didn't hear anything and there's no news about Google being added in the Yahoo headlines for Google. Aaron Schindler Schindler Trading

Interesting analysis, Keyser. What else do you like with the other 70% of your portfolio? Aaron Schindler Schindler Trading

In Nazi Germany, some Jews hid diamonds within the linings of their clothes. Diamonds are an extremely compact, portable, and easily hidden store of wealth -- even more so than gold.

Yeah, it is volatile. From fathomonline.com the past monthly changes have been +13% (Sep-Oct, 2004), then +7%, +2%, -4%, -2%, +9%, +11% for April, and now -15% for May. Fathom Online attributes much of the drop in keyword prices to a drop in mortgage companies advertising now that the Fed is...

Thanks, ElCubano. A 15% change seems really big. This must be a very volatile number. I would think a 1.5% drop would be a cause for concern, let alone a 15% drop. But if it is a volatile index, then maybe it isn't a big deal. I'll have to see if I can find some historical data. Aaron...

Stocks will be a somewhat more volatile than usual on higher volume, but there is no upward or downward bias that I am aware of. Aaron Schindler Schindler Trading

I'm familiar with some of Brandon's work. He is a knowledgeable and experienced trader. His videos are excellent! Aaron Schindler Schindler Trading

No, no....you're thinking of Google. GOOG only goes up. Wait til the market considers the synergies of Google acquiring Microsoft -- then GOOG will really take off! :D

Nice! You're hired! Years ago I was asked in an interview for a floor trader position to estimate the number of windows on the Sears Tower outside the window. And to estimate the number of dentists in Russia. Like 5yrtrader said, they were just looking to see my thought process in arriving...

You can refer people to the <a href="http://www.schindlertrading.com/index.php?page=diversification"> Diversification page</a> on the Schindler Trading website to see this. The graph shows how a 10% allocation to the Schindler Trading Program in an S&P 500 (buy and hold) portfolio actually...

For purposes of qualifying for Electronic Corporate Membership (ECM), I don't see the distinction between "proprietary trading firms" and "hedge funds". The rules say that hedge funds that "hold and/or manage third-party funds are not eligible for ECM." But isn't that what proprietary trading...

I agree that it is a very good video. Thanks, Brandon! Aaron Schindler Schindler Trading

For those of you who, like me, didn't know: O'Toole's Commentary on Murphy's Law is that Murphy was an optimist. I had to look it up. I also found O'Reilly's Law of the Kitchen: "Cleanliness is next to impossible". :cool: Aaron Schindler Schindler Trading

How about emailing it to me, Ramuk, and I'll put it up on the SchindlerTrading.com website and provide a link to it here? My email address is aaron @ schindlertrading.com (without the spaces). Aaron Schindler Schindler Trading

Hmmm, I think you are missing a couple things. Let's work step by step... My best guess of where the price of the cheapest-to-deliver t-note will be at expiration of the futures contract is the current cash price. And that is what I am willing to contract now to pay at that time... F*...

The Schindler Trading program makes short term trades -- 1-3 day in length usually. We go both long and short and are often on the sidelines. The indicators we use are a mixed bag of sentiment, trend following, over-bought/over-sold, inter-market, and fundamental. The strategies are...

The trend followers like Quadriga, John Henry, and Meyer Capital Management have been having a tough 2005 because all the major markets have been going in one direction just long enough for the trend followers to get aboard, and then they reverse and go the other direction for about a month and...
