You should try to get money from the guys at Ramsey Quantitative. I think they have a division in Chicago that holds a contest to fund emerging CTAs. I don't have contact info for you, but, they are not that difficult to get money from. I think they allocate to about 100 emerging CTAs about $3...

Honestly don't know enough real facts reabout Livermore's career. Knowing that he shorted the '07 and '29 crashes is not enough to make him a Hall of Famer. I believe he died broke which would itself disqualify him.

Jesse Livermore- does anyone even know the 'real' story? Reminiscences was a fictional account.

That is the exact nature of aggressive naked option selling and mean-reversion trading. He does both in spades and very aggressively. Correct 99/100. The 1 time you lose, total devestation. Certainly not a Hall of Famer. Nice enough guy though and honest at least...

I think the Birds calls have been great whether or not we hit 1300 tomorrow or not. With that said, trading and analysis are two very different animals. The question is, how much was made? I made a major call in the Nikkei at 7500 and didn't make a nickel off it. I mine as well have said it was...

John Merriweather- No because of LTCM blowup and not really in same league as others IMO. Victor Neiderhoffer- No, enough said. Richard Dennis- good but not worthy of the creme de la creme. Al-Waleed is debatable. True he doesn't have the same pressures and he started with a big...

Anyone to add/subtract?

I'm sure he's talking $/Eur and is all confused.

Great trading. Close out the winners and let the losers run. Keep up the good work :)

Thanks for the kind replys.

Has anyone written a program that arbs the SP vs. ES? Since the ES only trades in 1/4 point increments and the SP trades in 1/10 point increments seems as though there is an opportunity to possibly create an automated system to arb. the 2 contracts under certain conditions. In other words, you...

You should invest it in a Fund of Hedge Funds and get your 10% or so per year. Compound the investment until you absolutely need the income to live. At that point, hopefully, you will have more than $1 Million invested and you can withdraw the annual income annually. Managing it yourself should...

20% of both Management and performance fee for the life of the client is industry standard. I've heard as high as 30% for early-stage capital and as low as 15% for larger funds with established track records. This is a well worn path, there is a definate industry standard. Personally, I think...

We can rename this thread, Dumb, Dumber, Dumbest.

LOL! The lying on this site is just incredible. What's the purpose? LOL!

Does anyone see a head and shoulders top forming in the S&P or am I imagining it? I'm not one that buys into big technical patterns, however, I'd like to hear thoughts. Thanks
