Sorry I didn't see what you wrote in the first place. Also im not sure if your being sarcastic or not (hard to tell sometimes on these message boards). However if you know anybody at knight that could help me out I would really appreciate it. Thanks

I have been trying to contact Knight Equity Markets through both email and on the phone but im not getting very far. I would like to work for them as I know they are one of the biggest market making firms in OTC securities. Any help guys? Thanks

SPNG closed at .045 today guys! Company came out and said that they are going to buyback $25 million shares!!! This is roughly 25% of the float! This is an opportunity guys! I don't think I have ever seen a better opportunity in my career! YT

Sorry for not posting guys but I have really been out of the commodity game for a few weeks now. Mainly been trading equities and absolutely loving them! I love the fact that the level 2 orderbook seems so much more transparent than a futures orderbook. Also there seems to be a lot more...

Very true.......what people don't realize is that for the guys that truly enjoy working in this business, its not about the money. The money doesn't even really matter, its just a way of keeping score and most traders like competition so the more money they have the more points they are ahead...

Wow that sounds awesome! I bet it was probably as exciting as the pits of Chicago huh? To be honest it sounds like a fun job with lots of money but the whole illegal thing really turns me off :D Anybody know of a job that would be sort of like that but at the same time be legal? I was a...

The mods are probably running a boiler room somewhere lol! Seriously though, these are very interesting businesses. Im anxious to hear any other thoughts on the subject or if anybody knows of any other firms out there that resemble boiler rooms or are actually boiler rooms.

Yeah I did hear something about a movie. Any idea on when its coming out or if there is any details on it yet? Should be a pretty awesome movie! lol I highly doubt MER is involved in pump and dump activities but you never know I guess.

Just finished the book Wolf of Wall Street which was written by Jordan Belfort. He ran Stratton Oakmont one of the biggest boiler room/pump and dump brokerages during the 90's. Pretty interesting stuff. Do these boiler rooms still exist or have they basically all been shut down do to the...

Oh you were there too? :D

Gave a stripper an especially large tip last weekend and then paid for all the beer that night instead of mooching off my buddies I love my life :D YT

Thanks for the help guys. Are you guys primarily level 2 traders? Any other help you can give me would be great! Something I witnessed today was in a lesser liquid stock (I believe it traded 20,000 shares today) UBS was offering 1400 shares, then cinn and tmbr leaned on that size and...

Ok, interesting about hiding size.........is this possible for a retail trader or can only mm's do this technique? Also how are orders executed? Like in futures its either fifo or pro rata. Like right now im watching a stock and UBSS then NSDQ then arcx...........if they are all offering at...

Would like to know who are some of the bigger mm's in the equities markets? How hard is it to get a position as a market maker in a stock? Any other advice would be great! YT

Anybody want to explain to me whats going on in the level 2 book? I'm very familiar with a futures orderbook but an equities orderbook looks much more complex. The last time I looked at a level 2 was when I was 15 years old.......so its been 3 years :D Just have a few basic questions...

Ok guys a little update. Can't remember exactly where I covered my hogs for a loss but I believe it was something like 79 even. So a $200 loss on that trade. I shorted some beans yesterday at 13.85 and am looking to hold all the way down to 13 even. Other than that I got nothin :D...

ProfLogic for president!!! :D

Here in westcentral iowa we have a picture perfect corn crop (probably the best I have ever witnessed on our farm). However our bean crop is less than desirable. Most of the beans that got in were extremely late and any replants are not gonna make it or are going to be extremely short in...

No I trade futures but trading is trading. PM me with any questions you have YT

To the OP Sounds like you made a wise choice my friend by putting your money in a bank account before you make any rash decisions. I didn't read all the posts on this thread (quite a bit of responses) but someone said if they knew now what they know then they would of tried something...
