AFter all the firms going belly-up or sideways, it would seem that some salary would be a good consolation....

I've commented extensively on this subject regarding real world risk management, and not just theoretical RM. I was stuck with the SLK Redi+ system, which was the worst fate that circumstances could have ever punished me with. There were no effective RM methods available whence one would...

it seems the marketplace is coming back, large, and it may be time to get your affairs in order. if you've decided to go professional, then do it! if you've decided that perhaps Onsite / AB Watley or other cheaper firms don't offer professional services (bullets, conversions, house capital...

since you started this thread, I'm not sure the replies were what you desired... where do you or your conclusions stand, based on the replies.. Its only fair that we expect a detailed response to your initial thread....

Cheers on representing! Good to see you participating in the forums. Gene W does, and others do, and as owner of your excellent firm, good to see you keeping up appearances...

Those who keep mashing around about prop vs. retail have never seriously considered, at least their comments don't indicate that they've looked into it seriously. Let's remember, taking and Passing the Series 7 is the first hurdle that bars dozens from entry. After passing that gauntlet...

Gene - loved your tax summary and your professionalism in referring others to at least 2 or three tax accounting sites that are familiar with LLC / Trading scenarios. These web based sites are superb and offer the novice to sophisticated tax-man an excellent service. Remember, our focus is on...

I heard it was great, from some attendees. Seems that these turks know what the essence of a real firm is, namely competent senior management that knows their product and uses it, not just sells it. I have also heard great things about other prop trading seminars, however, what's to believe...

that's a personal question, which has to be asked to those firms respectively. They might boast of their $250M excess capital or not, however, I'm sure that they'll want to know significant volumes about whom they're talking to. If you have size account, then you should be worried about SIPC...

5x5 (five by five), you and the boys at SCH, if you're making $150,000 per day must be doing some serious size and swinging some big derricks at the docks (shipping analogy for longshoremen). if that's the case, then you have your success to praise you. Pershaps those who have responded to...

Hey guys, at least you can get a reply from Don Bright, Principal. I've been trying to get stratight answers from what's left of Onsite, now AB Watley, and everybody including their Chief Compliance Officer play dumb. Imagine that. They couldn't even explain the difference between holding...

so is doofus plural? So, should one be a doofi, and two be doofis, and many be doofus? How would be pluralize many doofi? doofuses? Cheers.... Tech support is a hard service to quantify. What you're going up against is the fact that those hired know computers, software and their...

trade555 ... self praise stinks. Sch may be good, and a tight environment, but don't presume that someone, or the other posts were asking what/how to pass an interview. Since the markets are dynamic in nature, and represent active-human nature, they will naturally rise to overcome, undo...

stock777 what was the gift, that was so funny?

remember, these high risk/reward scenarios works best when one is trading from a double comfortable cushion of profits upon profits and risking (starting from their initial outlays, years ago) 1/1000th % capital. Say that cummulatively, Tony or anyone else has taken 2.5M from the markets, and...

trade555 what are you comfortable saying about Sch? uh, generally, we do share, on these discussion boards, it all doesn't work otherwise

Hey guys, now there's a goal worth shooting for!!! Cheers to all you cowboys, make your profits, and build your house in the parking lot, uh, country.....

care to share those legendary tales? (NVDA, etc.)

How does Echo / Bright / Worldco / Hold Brothers compare with AB Watley-Onsite? Heard that Onsite folded into AB. Why?, anticipation of liability claims over delivering the K1 statements after September 15th?, or other questionable practices? Seems like these concerns over a company folding...
