1. It's been a couple years so I'm not sure about hiring practices right now. There were some people there who had no prior experience but I think that experience is definitely preferred. 2. Proprietary software. 3. Was 50%. 4. I didn't. But you had to leave a few thousand as a...

if it's a major s/r point and you're taking a position in front of it, get the fuck out in a hurry if and when it breaks

Well, perhaps it should be taxed a little higher to offset the costs to the health care system. Not that those costs are very high. Nor is there a health care system in the States.

Agreed. Financial news media and politicians are just looking for a bogeyman. This will do nothing to help the markets. This has already been studied extensively. It won't even decrease the velocity of down moves. All it will do is decrease liquidity, which decreases value.

I just remember that on the exact day of the bottom, Maria Bartiromo did a segment on CNBC about how to make money shorting.

Unless that's a strange complement of some kind (you know, like how at one point "bad" really meant "good"), I would suggest you go put on some David Hasselhoff or Boney M and keep your batshit insane thoughts to yourself before you embarrass yourself further.

i'd say it's pretty similar to the old one

...they sure don't mind getting those tax breaks either (which is essentially a wealth transfer from non-religious and non-practicing religious people to religious people)

You'll probably never have the edge you desire due to latency issues. But even if you were collocated in the same room as the CME or whatever, you'd still have problems. Most of these economic numbers are released in advance and embargoed until a certain time. Clearly, there are some out...

If god did create the universe (as is often alleged), who created god?

I used to work there as a prop trader. It was pretty good. It's only really for trading stocks though. Most guys there arb NYSE and TSX interlisted stocks.

Does anyone out there know how the latency on executions with any of these platforms compares to OpenQuant or NinjaTrader?

The link is no good. Would you mind posting it again?

Has anyone out there compared the latency on executions between the TT FIX Adapter and XTAPI? I presume FIX is faster, but if so by how much (ballpark)?

Hopefully it doesn't come to this, but worse case scenario we've still got 200 years of coal left. Needless to say, we've really got to put a lot into R&D for alternative power sources (especially solar) and all oil price subsidies should be abolished. Technological improvements are the only...

There is a big problem with the $20 and the coins though. Unfortunately, we have put the head of a detestable English hereditary monarchy on our currency. It's pretty embarrassing. If we must have an English chick on our currency I'd be a lot happier if we went with Keeley Hazell or Lucy...

Using that logic i guess the Americas ought to be returned to the natives. Should Manhattan be razed and returned to the Lenape tribe? After all, it's really their land, right?

The best retail place I've found is a place in Chinatown called Goldium II. It's at 279 Spadina (at Dundas). Usually a 100-150 pip spread on USDCAD above $3000. If you call them up first they'll commit to price for an hour or so. It's not amazing, but the big 5 all give a terrible 350 pip...

Yeah, this is very annoying. The charts are just a mess. I don't suppose there's any way to exclude NMS trades from the charts or time & sales, is there?
