How can stock trader say "because you listen to Cramer" you're an idiot and lack intelligence? Regardless of whether you agree or follow the advice or calls of any market pundit...knowing what's being said in the marketplace and by who is how you stay in the game. I don't care for Cramer at...

wow..burying me for getting sucked into the put-on. Back to trading.

they are ECN's. Basically instead of marketplace orders being routed to actual market making firms like Morgan Stanley, Merrill, Knight, Wachovia, etc, the orders are routed to an electronic trading network that posts bids and offers, and crosses stock when possible. I believe it's the way to go...

Hi currently employed at a member firm, and likely will not be here a few months from now, but instead self-employed. Is there any way to carry your current securities licenses and/or renew them, take continuing ed. etc while self employed? I realize you have to have someone sponsor you..and was...

I missed "It So Fact So"...care to enlighten me? Thanks

Right, the simplistic ways of "I buy good stocks that go up" won't work forever. He hasn't even defined what a "good stock" is. Don't confuse genius with a bull market son.

Wow how quickly things turn....way to be a one dimensional trader. You have some promising future!

He really should just stop....and focus on his marvelous portfolio. But he won't... I wonder if he's buying today's giant dip. Haven't heard a peep about that have we?

Exact definition or not....if you actually read that wikipedia definition you wouldn't come to the conclusion that program trading is driven by fundamentals.

wow. Program trading is "trades executed by software." I think the word of the day here is "simplistic" and that just sums up this entire post.

This stuff is so cliched and simplistic it will be the death of you one day.... what's next re-quoting Peter Lynch's "Buy what you know" as if it's that simple. The fact that you have convinced yourself already that a one sided mindset toward the markets is "simple" proves you won't last too...

My point is, if guys on here are relying on stock picking services and bloggers for stockpicking advice, then perhaps they should reconsider being professional traders in the first place.

Okay fine, I apologize for that inappropriate description of you then. I still say who cares though.

Stock trader...you remind me of someone who is trying to start a lame "Stock picking" service by advertising your bland strategies on this message board. You picked the wrong place. Most people here are much to savvy for your elementary b.s. Try another forum please. I receive "Don't miss the...

Stock trader, you are the very definition of "brutal." One of the posters said it best when he stated "Just no one cares." That's the bottom line. Win, and win stealthily..why waste time posting on these boards and bragging to underlings like me? And you may want to consider rolling some of your...

and Bob Pisani...Mr. Bull Market himself.

Thanks, yes I'm consulting with Green and/or a trader tax accountant in my area to shore up these issues. I just keep hearing from the LLC firms themselves that "most guys set up LLC's", which would be sub-LLC's, within the framework of the firm organized LLC and am trying to rationalize why...

Okay I understand that about the FICA tax...but does that simply mean that being a member of an already formed LLC means that you receive no tax benefits that you would receive if you formed a SMLLC? In other words, you guys that work for a VTrader, Assent, Bright, Schonfeld, etc...LLC firms...

If I work for an LLC that pays a K-1 and requires that I contribute my own capital to become a member, I'm under the impression from the Green Trader Tax book/site that my K-1 gains are not "earned income." How do you guys that are under similar arrangements do business then? Do you create...

I could use some pointers from anyone who receives a K-1 each year (i.e. traders with the LLCs like Bright, VTrader, Assent, etc). 1. Say I begin trading with an LLC tomorrow. I realize I personally missed the April 15 Mark to Market election date, but does that matter for me? I seem to be...
