Ha... good one. HFT is indeed the ET bogeyman. It's always funny how people on a forum for short term trading so despise other people doing short term trading....

Maybe you got a typo there? It reads as, "and it started from city [of Nice] which is 2 [Nice] from city [of Paris] which is its destination"

ET Style HFT Technology? Delusion + Paranoia + Complete Ignorance of All Things Finance

I think you are a bit on the naive side... working a contact is a reason to make up a story; Anyway, you know him better than any of us - but from what you are saying... fishy.

I think you guys have no actual clue as to what HFT is.

Again, your opinion is based on a single observation. Anyway, it looks like you are just one of those guys with an irrational grudge against all things 'HFT'.

Playing the devil's advocate here... but how you do you know he's not making up the whole headhunter bit and trying to work you to give up your contact, your classmate?

Oh I see... I misunderstood you what you meant there. My bad. But did I misunderstand the fact that your entire view is extrapolated from a single observation? And that you don't really understand capacity constraints vis-a-vis HFT strategies? Ignorance is indeed no way to go through life.

Which is to say, not at all? At least his biography as related to you sounds a little fishy (or maybe you are relaying it wrong).

That's what a I figured... and I don't imagine community college produce any significant research. In any case, if you aren't even sure about this, why take the reputation risk of introducing this guy (who sounds a bit like a crank) to a guy you actually know?

You mean a teacher's college? Why would a teacher's college have a tenure prof in computer science (which usually belongs to arts & science or engineering)

Excuse me, but what do you do?

You understand the issue with capacity constraints, right? I like how you manage to extrapolate an observation on a single firm to the whole sector. You work for a clearing firm - you don't say.

You know better because......?

I honestly haven't met a successful day trader. I've been in this business for a long while now, and I honestly haven't met a single successful day trader. I get it, how would I? That success day trader works from home and doesn't exist as far as the finance industry is concerned. So how...

BernankeOffDuty - you are not only a loon, but a liar and a coward. Now that's clear for everyone to see - you should apologize to everyone to saw the vile picture you posted. That is, if you still consider yourself to be a human being. Otherwise, perhaps you should heed your own...

is posting pornographic material in http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?threadid=251007 And making claims that are approaching libel (that I pm'ed him 'subscriptions' (whatever that means) whereas I demonstrably have not). Perhaps something should be done?

Oh I see - when you argue yourself into a lonely little corner, you resort to childish lies. I think we can all see who you are now :)

(1) oh come on, don't be mad (2) you stopped replying to that thread when everyone told you to put or shut up (3) people should know the ideas you represent to get a context of any discussion with you in case they think you represent any sort of rationality. (4) ALL of this will be resolved...

Just a reminder, that you've yet to provide an explanation as to why you haven't spent that $400 dollar to become the richest man on earth. (and no, I don't think anyone will believe that the answer is that you are already the richest man on earth). Again, you claim that you can get free...
