.......now is not the time to let up, let's take 2 down in Atlanta, and finish them off with Prior at home !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Vega:D

Saw an ad of theirs and wanted to know a little more about them before I applied. Don't laugh, but do they pay a salary (I don't think they do) ? How much size do you start trading, and how quickly can you increase your size (I know based on profitibility, but what kinda numbers) ? And what's...

What's happening ? Getting ready to head out and start pre-partying for the Cubbies game tonite !! Hope all is going well. Vega:D Warning: All spammers will be severely flamed.

Just wondering if there was any news, good or bad, lately about this firm. Vega:D

Just wondering if anyone has heard or knows anything about this firm. Thanks in advance. Vega:D

I'm sure he'd love to hear what we have to say !!!!! Vega:D

They sound identical to what I remember when I took the membership class at the CBOE a few years ago. Was there something that looked too wide that made you start this thread originally? Like I said before, the exchanges monitor this stuff, and generally all the quotes are generated...

Even if an option is thinly traded, the MMs have limitations as to how wide their markets can be. Things like this ARE monitored by the exchanges. The only times that a MM has no restriction on how wide the spread can be is when the stock is in a fast market trading condition. I'm not sure...

I knew I was forgetting something:p Vega:D

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, and I hope I'm wrong, but I don't think that there is any "software" that will help you to execute larger orders on lower volume stocks. The only thing I can think of would be to have an acct at one of the bigger firms where potentially they could "shop"...

If it makes you feel any better, OPEC really pisses me off too Vega:D

I don't think it's OPEC intent to stall any stock markets or economies. If fact, for OPEC it is much much better for them to have thriving economies that increase the demand for their products. Remember that post 9/11 oil prices ended up declining due to the lack of demand (largely from the...

I used to work for a guy that was a MM in the IBM options pit at the CBOE. One morning Merrill Lynch upgrades the stock, and raises their projections on both revenue, EPS, and target price. Ok, so now it's 8:31 CST, right as the market opens, a clerk is quoting the stock, "82 bid, offered at...

..............in the journals sections called "Venting Journal" that will be open to all who wish to "vent" about the markets. Probably much easier than trying to start a whole forum that may not have enough substance to be sustained. Anyway, hopefully things turnaround, and no one needs to...

Sure, just get your membership, and then you can save MILLIONS on not having to pay cancel fees:p or by being able to make 2-sided markets:eek: Just kidding, I'm done with this whole BOX thing................until someone else writes something that changes my mind:D Vega:D

If I am trading on the BOX, and I get screwed, who do I yell at ? Vega:D

Well said, sooner or later someone will figure out that this aint the best thing since sliced bread. Anyone know what the rules are going to be as far as getting your bids/offers posted ? What kind of a size minimum would there be to get your bid posted ? How great would it be to have a 1...

Which floors did you trade on ? CBOE? I'm not concerned with people that know what there doing, I just think a lot of newbies (not you) are going to be so giddy about the whole 2-sided thing and blow out. But hey, it's their money, so they can do what they want. Vega

I think that's the key if this thing has a chance of working, being very selective. And I agree with Def that it does "give both sides the same amount of rope," I just think that the new customers are more likely to get "rope burn" than the current MMs. I envision some folks making markets in...
