    "program trading" at home

    no, it has nothing to do with what you were talking about, but I used the Niederhoffer example as a possible reason why prop firms don't allow option trading of ANY kind. (riskless or not) but, like I said, the truth is probably that commission-wise it's not worth it.

    Short Housing

    I'm actually from Macedonia (FYR Macedonia, don't wanna offend any Greek EliteTraders :)), but I lived for many years in Australia. The "auction" system you mention is an absolute joke! Sounds great in theory: all buyers there at the same time, all madly bidding the value of your property...

    "program trading" at home

    Greenspan ... ENOUGH IS ENOUGH !

    How the mighty have fallen! It wasn't all that long ago that Greenspan was being hailed as an economic miracle worker. I guess the "smooth landing" rationale (remember that? seems like a lifetime ago) he used to raise interest rates has put an end to that.
