looking at the action in ER2 it looks as if there is a short squeeze going on (in small caps)... i've noticed er2 has been rallying on the close (mainly 4-4:15) for so many days.

you may be right in the very short-term, but small caps have outperformed large caps for 5 straight years and it could be in the last stretch -- may be too late

you're right...monthend could mark the top in Russell2K which would make all major indices topped in an orderly fashon: first sp500 and last Russell2K -- which index will race on the downside..my bet is small cap ..Russell 2K

yeah what to make of small caps making new alltime highs while sp500 struggling not to breakdown...this is opposite to what small caps' (Russell2K) normal behavior at least in the last 6mos. My question is whether the Rus2K is the last to peak or what????

I also have seen a number of structures where there is another separate LLC entity which receives the management fee (this Advisors LLC is also owned by the hedge fund manager)-- must be some sort of separation of management fees and incentive fees.

my understanding is that if Retirement funds become more than 25% of the fund, then ERISA regs will make it harder. Also if you trade futures, ira accts need to find a custodian who takes alternate investments. I'm no expert in this subject so pl. check w/ a lawyer and would like to hear...

Congatulations!! If you don't mind me asking, what structure do you have? LLC as the GP (you) managing the LP Fund? And do you have another LLC receiving the mgmt fee?

Thanks, I'll check some paralegals re: LLC Are your clients have the accounts in their names or some LLC type of entity acct? The reason I'm asking is that some clients prefer the hedgefund structure for liability reasons. Also, hedgefund structure seem better for taxes as well, that...

anyone? Forming a LLC seems to involve just filing some forms w/ the Secretary of State...am I missing something?

Rather than starting a new thread, I thought I would resuscitate this old thread..... Anyone here formed an LLC w/o the help of an attorney / lawyer ? Is it worth it doing it DIY? (LLC which will become the General Partner for a Fund LP to be formed)

hmmm.....

Trade 4 Living, thanks, that's helpful. I look forward to getting Ensign in January. Do you trade through IB (TWS) ?

I think you are way ahead of me on short-term trading. I'm trying to get a bit of a handle on trading in the shorter timeframes. As an example, I'm still to use any tick charts -- what is the significance of these tick numbers 75, 133, 110, 233, 550 ? I trade at IB w/ their datafeed. From...

I can't tell the leverage you trade at but guess you have it under control. The reason I brought up leverage is that mishaps are bound to happen from time to time and if the leverage is not excessive, the damage is not severe. I think even for scalping, it is better to have leverage limits and...

Sorry about your mishap. You just have to put it behind you and move on. What level of leverage you trade at and do you vary your leverage based on signals?

April bottom.. (s&p 1136) .many were expecting a Black Monday -- you could just feel the fear watching the ticker .... well, now we know it was the best buying opportunity of the year.

Look at the index charts of ER2 and SPX: SPX daily chart RSI is 73.8 where for Russell it is only up to 66.2 --Also when Russell hit 688.5 in August, RSI was above 70. i.e., this move is stronger and there is more upside left for er2.. it could pause/pullback a little at the previous all...

yes, looks like globex open for equities until 11:30 am EST tomorrow and will re-open at the normal 6:00 pm for the overnight session. YM is closed until the night session tomorrow. Probably quiet until Friday AM -- we will see if er2 has hit the wall on this run -- it didn't trade well...

is it open tomorrow?

Tony, How do you determine the wave degree...just looking at your nasdaq chart with labels, wave 2 and i are about the same size implying to me that they should be of the same degree, no? Also with your target of 2560 for nasdaq, this V th wave will be as big as the wave III -- shouldn't wave...
