when I started this thread, I never, NEVER, expected it to have gotten to this level of a fever's pitch. Frankly, I thought we'd get some comments about these outrageous monthly fees at/around $300 monthly; or we'd get some comments about the authors arrogance in their boasts of...

Who can recommend a good room, that makes (consistently, or sometimes good) trading calls? Is their philosophy Momentum oriented, Position oriented, or Rumor oriented? Do they rely on a sole provider (Undergroundtrader) or multiple callers (Pristine) to "un-officially" endorse calls? Do they...

Gene W recommended a number of online tax accountants that handle questions like these. generally, we don't/aren't qualified to give such specific advise. I'm guessing that the idea behind the question regarding paying multiple state taxes is based upon: 1) the idea that companies with...

instead of being the cheapest platform for most brokerage shops, they invested serious development monies in improving their software. it stinks for what it does, and is even worse for what it says it should be able to do... I've seen a lot of guys specifically fault the software, not the...

Hey, I'm going back to that Chinese Food Store and have them be my broker.... SSF's will short circuit the market, just like the wrench that falls across the light switch, they both cause sparks.... Simply put, when you marry the slower Equities market with the Derivatives market (options...

excellent comment... I appreciate it when the comments are constructive, informative and alllows others to benefit from their experience.... TraderProfile was available to all SLK customers/client brokerage firms. I was not able to get the SLK feed to tie into source of their reports, hence...

I wasn't sure whether explaining the falicy in reliance upon scanners, not as a trading methodology, but as they are represented and marketed, and then excused by the lenghtly worded contract as just that, a falicy. yes, scanners, in general do scan... however, whence sniping trades and the...

yanking pickles? you're kinda filthy... being objective, being clear, so others can respond in a reasonable fashion is an indication of deceny. so far, Don Bright (who needs no defending) had to answer your one paragraph of run-on half-thought and word phrases with over 6 replies...

sorry, don't like it.... Pristine's model is tantamount to avoidance of responsibility. The commentators in their trading rooms are not paid staff but associated individuals who represent loosely Pristine, although there's no monetary compensation to their calls or participation. This...

choose another name, that doesn't give yours away... modify your comments (remove) and use your new moniker (name) ATB (all the best)

excellent comments all around, guys. The other comment of note went like: "I wanted to know how the others traded, so I can trade against them"; "I didn't ask because I wanted to speculate, not joining a prop firm"; "I wanted these prop firms to expose themselves to the light of public...

Don B.... hey, even you said you wouldn't do that .....

great to hear positive comments on another means of trading. is this exclusive for professional or (sophisticated) retail investors/traders only? Also, is the jealousy of the other traders that obvious, just to me (based on the comments) or to others? Sheesh, what does a new firm have to...

under the general heading of "you get what you pay for" some ways that these firms achieve little or no commission basis are: 1) statements must be generated and accessed online, hence no mailed statements or hardcopy from the firm -- your responsibility 2) changes, challenges and...

IB does not offer under those rates, professional services like the other firms specializing in Pfsnl trading. Those rates you quoted are for public customer accounts, and are essentially moot if your account is below $25,001 and you execute more than 4 trades in any one week (hence SEC Pattern...

could you find that article, down to the exact url and copy/post that address. the home page for the url means that we may/might/might not find that article

Don. Don't go getting soft on us.... We need an attack man! After all, those cheesy NASD firms went down with a lot of our (collective) funds...

now that's why I participate in these forums.... LEVERAGE simply put, credible commentary that's substantive instead of fluff, emotion and fizzle. feels like the other OTExpo's, perhaps I will comment on the NY one, whence it comes, and should I attend

remember the hypothetical questions on the Series 7 regarding suitability tests for the indigent (you know, grandparents, retired and orphans). Well, let's go back and ask that question again: "Whould/Should you accept a desperate dilusional prospective professional trader into your LLC who...

is it true that they're financially hurting right now?
