    Read every word and believe it.

    Can this be for real? The politicians and pundits have even talked of impeachment of the Secretary of Defense. If this doesn't show the complete lack of comprehension and understanding of the seriousness of the enemy we are fighting, the life and death struggle we are in and the disastrous...

    I wish I wrote this, but I'm just lucky enough to have found it: Subject: Muslims, terrorist and the USA : A different spin on Iraq war. This WAR is for REAL! Dr. Vernon Chong, Major General, USAF, Retired To get out of a difficulty, one usually must go through it. Our country is...

    The whore at PIMCO

    The guy is a billionaire, I doubt he cares much about his $1.4 Million position. He is the best bond trader in the world proven over 20+ years. He's not a flash in the pan.

    Wizard of Wall Street Oct-Nov Edition

    Eagle, the scale of your chart is very misleading. Please scale it more appropriately and then you can see the difference between the last 10-15 years and historical norms. It is unprecendented and clearly a sign of "greed". You should pound the table. If this isn't greed, I don't know what is...

    Wizard of Wall Street Oct-Nov Edition

    Let's talk about a word that you didn't mention. It's probably the most important but least appreciated word. The word is "perspective". This is what separates the few successes from the many failures. Anyone can throw out Greed, Fear, etc. we have all read that many times in the textbooks...

    $100B hedge fund

    Ever see a market where the moves were counter-intuitive? You are playing "their" game. They control the market and YOU are merely an unarmed competitor unmatched and simply at their mercy. When your mother says, "they say the market is going up and you ask, who is 'they'?" they are the "they"...

    Chinook's EUR/USD (E/$)Mumblings

    I cut my position around 1.2560 basis the Dec. future. I don't like the fact that the market breached the range of 1.26-1.30 basis the futures that had been holding since end of April. Overall, I think fundamentals point to weak US $ in the long-run. Will get back in on a rejection of the range...

    Chinook's EUR/USD (E/$)Mumblings

    i just bought some Euros (basis 1.2740 in Dec. futures). I'm a long-term position trader and haven't been active in Eur in a long time. Will continue to buy dips and trade EUR from the long side looking for a large and extended move to the upside on a longer-term basis based upon a combination...

    Interesting Prop arrangement

    Mav, this Firm that I am aware of prides itself on having the best deal available. If what you say is true, I will have to ask them if they can match your deal in Chicago plus free passes to Scores on the weekends (full-service escorts included). As you know, this is a competitive business...

    Interesting Prop arrangement

    I might know of a deal where the trader gets to keep 95% payout and puts no capital up. Furthermore, the trader takes no responsibility for the losses. Commission charges are just .002c per share. They provide all the necessary tools like Bloomberg, pay your other trading related expenses (such...

    Interesting Prop arrangement

    how can this firm last offering a deal like that? why would you pay 50% and assume all the risk on unknown guys when you can pay some talented hedge fund with a track record 20%. These traders can't overcome the 1.5c vig on the commissions and be close to profitable for you even on a gross...

    The best forex question ever

    Thank you, Iconoclast. At least I know that I have a following of at least one! We all start somewhere I suppose..:). Anyway, I do not want to leave people with the impression that Oanda is in anyway cheating people. As usual, it is caveat emptor. They spell out very clearly that you must trade...

    The best forex question ever

    In my opinion, Oanda continues to simplify and enhance the ability for retail traders to lose money more easily in the forex market. As a trading platform, Oanda is probably one of the best for the retail trader in terms of ease of use and user-friendly capability. The addition of BoxOptions...
