    The stock_trad3r 2007-2008 market recession

    Frankly, stock_trad3r has been the most accurate poster on the whole site. He has the balls to say buy when everyone is too nervous to do so. Last I checked, the market was very close to an all-time high after having consistently made higher highs. The guy has been spot on. At least give him...

    What CTA fee structure you like the most?

    3 possibilities: 1. They answered from the perspective of an investor- most likely choice 2. They are dumb and either can't do basic math or have a gross misunderstanding of the reality of the business in terms of performance. 3. They considered the capital raising effect as it relates...

    What CTA fee structure you like the most?

    It is astonishingly dumb how someone would chose the option 0/25 instead of 2/20 (from the CTA perspective). Your breakeven return is approx. +40% just to equate 0/25 with 2/20. I know many on this site are delusional, however, are you really willing to gamble on more than a 40% annual return...

    What CTA fee structure you like the most?

    It's obvious. I voted from a CTA perspective. Your breakeven would be 25% gross return at a 0/20, a 20% gross return at 0/25 and a 15% gross return at 2/20. No matter how confident you are in your system, those numbers are unrealistic over any length of time and capital base. Keep in mind, those...

    What CTA fee structure you like the most?

    If you don't know the answer to this question, you won't make it as a CTA. By the way, I'll take 5% management fee, no incentive all day long. Anyone who didn't vote for that, doesn't have a clue about the business. As an investor, you take 0/25 with high water if you plan on being a long-term...

    Wall Street bonuses safe from volatility

    Absolute bologna. If the market is tough around year-end, bonuses will be slashed like crazy. Any compensation manager will answer a survey now saying bonuses are safe to calm any employee fears. It's a long haul between now and year-end and Wall St. will look for any excuse to cut bonuses just...
