Surely the best tactic is to never buy an OS directly always get it as part of the computer you're buying. I mean for trading purposes is it going to help you make more or lose less? As most computers should be replaced about every 4 years you'll always be natrally upgrading overtime...

I always liked the bit in Liars Poker when say the USD moved sharply overnight and clients wanted to know why. Many times there wasn't a reason, markets move don't you know. So the boys on the desk always used to make some cock and bull up like heavy Saudi selling of Sterling to buy Gold in...

Understand the simple fact that long term trends are tenacious in their nature. So when the majority of the market try and forecast the long term trend off what happened that week, you'll be able to pick them off if your analysis is any good. ie, when they're all saying 'that's it the trend...

Mmmmm, obviously some Govt Agency and/or private sector businesses want some more money:D :D The lowest common denominator to all these announcements is always money.

No need to 'learn Chinese'. English is now THE global language and is far too rooted for it to be surpassed by Chinese or Mandarin, whatever it is they speak out there. Go anywhere in the world and if you can't speak the native language the next choice will always be for both sides to try and...

Nothing but marketing 'fluff'. Just another product to slice and dice fees from investors.

Why not ask the far more critical question - How much LOSS a day is possible. I think you'll find it a lot more than your upside predictions:D :D :D

I like to look for tenacious long term trends and then look for stocks that got perhaps too overheated/over-extended. Then if those same stocks fall 50% AND the long term trend (of the sector) is still up I blindly buy those stocks and add them to my portfolio. GoldCorp (GG) was a recent...

Why would I want to get a job with them? Couldn't think of anything worse. I just made a point that it's hard to understand the headcount at many of these firms. I bet that no more than a handfull of traders make 80%+ of the profits so what does everyone else do?

Just checked out Citadel's website, and they employ 1,000 people around the world. It always amazes me why so many of these companies employ so many people. What the hell do they all do? Think of the wage bill and the lost man hours in all those pointless meetings. And how many noncy...

So Rotter's demise (assuming it's true) coincided with him doing press interviews and everyone getting to know about him. No coincidence there then:D Maybe the worse thing this Serb has done/is doing is letting his name get out..........

Why the hell do you or anyone else for that matter want a billion $. Why are you all so greedy, what good will all that money do you? You have more chance of flying than making your pathetic goal.

No surprises. If anything goes up 90% of the articles suggest it's only going higher, and vice-versa. Sometimes I even get the impression that many in the market and on TV forecast the long-term trend by what happened to prices that day. What a joke!

Europeans, especially the English are punters at heart so they like the futures/options/fx market for the bang. Plus the Stock Exchanges are less developed and just aren't as liquid.

Nothing, just name, address, tel, email etc. Keep it slightly mysterious and stand out from the crowd that seem to love a job description, you know the score - Senior Executive Vice President in Charge of Market Strategy & Development When I see something like that on someone's card...

Don't the Aussies called Abos 'Boings' as that's the noise they make when they bounce off your Roo-bars :)

Don't know about this fella, never heard of him but it's very possible to be a good coach but a lousy player etc. In football (the game played with a round ball) most of the top coaches had very mediocre careers (some hardly played in the top leagues at all). The flipside to this is that...

He could do one of two things - 1) Have a worker in the audience doing the oposite, he buys 5 the other guys sells 5. Money lost would be just on the bid offer. 2) Personally I think it's not that hard to break even in the market (if you know what you're doing). I'm sure many on this...

See, that just sums up the MO of many Americans. To think Europe is boring is nothing short of an imbecilic statement. So many different cultures, ways of thinking, ways to doing things, buildings, history, idiosyncrasies etc. Important in my view to see how others live and think...

Don't knock the Germans, they're nice people and it's a great country. Food is good, people are interesting and the beer is lovely. Maybe some of you Americans should go and visit it sometime instead of just going to the Mall :D
