repeat... we would like to see broker statements, no names of course. and again, where did you get the money? of course it's none of our business, but it is a pretty outrageious claim. k

If the story is true, which I doubt very much. i've been told about practical jokers on this board. If so, I'm very sorry for you. But, you have to be kidding. What in the world are you doing sitting and holding all your money in a couple of stocks, even the wildest daytrader i've ever met...

No fills today...took KO and JPM off, and of course, they "woulda been" great, LOL. Don

I believe this is a result of the SAC Capital, Steve Cohen's hedge fund..and has to do with his relationship with some analyst firm in arizona...telling them what to say about certain stocks... kevin

I've read most of this post, and it seems that don is saying that even with this knowledge you may or may not make money. I would bet those guys on the trading floor know quite a bit about trading, whether they have book type smarts or not. It does make sense that some people just have a good...

Quite a day for the first trial run....good job. kevin

I would like to know if we will have direct access to the european stocks via our normal platforms? Will our ecn's work.? kevin

Trading systems to me seem to run into the 2 standard deviation theory, make money 19 out of 20 times, then invariably they hit that last 5% and give all the money back, minus commissions. Much like a Martingale system. I also think, that in many cases, the human factor kicks in in and...
