    How to get interview at real prop firm?

    I think what everyone is *politely* trying to tell you is: WTF do you think you are that a legitimate NY prop shop is gonna back your trading-- and provide a draw while you "learn" no less-- when they've got ivy-leaguers falling all over them trying to get those jobs while all you can manage...

    No Country For Old Men

    I hope you're right. But sadly, methinks this task force will be replete with affirmative action know-nothings unqualified to do anything except receive the fruits of patronage.

    Spitzer: Federal Reserve is ‘a Ponzi scheme, an inside job’

    You don't pay hookers to come to you.... you pay them to leave quietly. And of course he was set-up, by none other than Dick Grasso and Ken Langone. But those in glass houses...

    Please. The banksters will make off with huge fees from selling these companies at IPO to our new Chinese overlords.

    Win 7 64 bit first impressions

    I've been trying to do a build for a new dedicated trading rig but the usual problem of 32 vs. 64 OS keeps cropping up. Do you build for what works right now, or for what possibly may work down the road? Now I am also considering a server, but am totally unfamiliar with the difference...

    Best Measure of Performance

    Thanks for the reply, AC. What would qualify as a "good" sortino? Also, how did you come up with your figures (x out of 100) for each sharpe ratio? Is there a formula for that. Thanks again.

    Best Measure of Performance

    Exactly. But understanding this is the difference between attracting capital and trading from your mom's basement in your tighty-whiteys.

    Best Measure of Performance

    What is the best measure of performance for an unleveraged (cash only) system? Sharpe? Sortino? Some have told me that because the system doesn't use leverage, that the sharpe may not give an accurate representation of performance. Thoughts? Also. What are considered "good" sharpe...

    The Battle Against Letting Wall Street Continue to Make a Killing on Derivatives

    What I don't get is that if these CDS and other derivatives are unregulated, then who is enforcing payment? If everyone just defaulted on the payment of the CDS and you netted out the gains and losses among all parties that are buyers and sellers of this toxic dog-crap, my guess is that there...

    Cta

    This just exempts you from NFA registration. You can charge performance or management fees if you like, but your brokerage cannot pay you out unless you're registered. Also, is this to be pooled funds or accounts managed individually?

    This is true. But it costs around $1300 to get registered as a CTA (last time I checked)

    Dear OTA Shill, Thank you for your response. The problem that you and your ilk are running into is one of value. In my example, the cost was FREE to me. Had I paid for it instead of my MIL, it would have cost me $100. Therefore, I save $5900. The problem with all of these courses...
