    The Stock Market had become an Illusion...

    @dealmaker You both don't know what you're talking about. Try to buy for 100m$ worth of a mid-cap security, have a look at how much slippage will cost you and then we talk.

    What else is there than price and time to analyze?

    Some say macro data can give you a medium-term / long-term view ( NFP, CPIs, etc. ) The sentiment of traders on twitter regarding a particular stock is also part of a signal index you can rent for a few bucks a month.

    Trying to Teach Computers to Think Like Top Traders

    Steve cohen is widely know in the industry to derive the majority of its p&l from insider trading. I highly doubt that his understanding of a "top trader" is consistent with good market practice, nor is it something you can teach a computer. @pinabetal serious who trades using human brain anymore ?

    Interactive Brokers is a scam, 2-3x margin maintenance requirements

    Why won't AMD go down from 8 to 13 ? The company could announce something over the week-end and lose half their value, that has happened very often in the past if you analyse all the universe of stocks. Them forcing you to post more margin should be a GOOD thing, it means the likelihood of IB...

    Interactive Brokers Hedging

    Man that's utter bullshit, it's the same as just pretending you're long and short in your head and when you see the market go up you pretend you close your imaginary short and actually go long, you've just saved double commission as @lovethetrade mentioned

    High yield dividend portfolio

    An ETF is just a fund that tracks an underlying, they are not a new "asset class" per se. In EU, pension funds need to make 3% and they make 2%, which is a big deal for them, and they have enough money to hire a lot of smart guys, so no 8% or 10% of dividends on a portfolio is not possible, if...

    Making a career of investing at 32...?

    We sell on the local market but we have a pretty expensive setup where we're able to produce 365 days a year whereas most farms there produce 3-4 months a year, so we make the real money when it's low seasons for a given fruit / vegetable and we're able to sell it. To reduce the risk of theft...

    Making a career of investing at 32...?

    The guy in charge of my farm is co-invested with me and is the son of a big client for the hedge fund I'm working for, so it sets this notion that if he steals me, I can steal him. Also he's not African, he's one of the many Chinese there. Otherwise I probably would have never done it.

    Making a career of investing at 32...?

    Asia is very different than Africa / Middle East because their colonization history did not go so well (and developed Asian countries such as HK / Singap / etc. are as efficient as EU/US), there is mounting racism against white in countries such as Thailand, Vietnam etc. and the rules tend to...

    So you're essentially going to track the S&P 500 over the next years without really over-performing it on a beta-adjusted basis and you want to get a job at an asset management firm to do this ? I think you should travel a bit and discover the world, there are many great places where you can...
