dhpar. Wow thanks. So if I wish to open a fund in a future the best way is to be a trader as well. I never thought of that like that but why not shoot for the top right. That pretty much sums up a lot. Last two pages were very well informative. Thanks a bunch.

Wow the USD/JPY pair is getting destroyed. And EUR/USD is rising to all time highs. Ouch town population United States Dollar (greenback).

RELAX, life is just a game. Everything will be alright. Unless, of course due to your constant loss of money you feel depressed and go on drugs. Later becomng homeless and have to gain money by slinging crack. Good luck. :D

I dont know what I am doing. It is a random walk isn't it? But, with little proven strategies, you can make some money. Just have to wait for that near perfect set up, they dont come that often. Thus, dont overtrade. Although I make enough to pay the bills. And in my situation all I need to make...

Hey Segv. Thanks for the post. I think that your recommendation is pretty valid, and I am planning on going to grad school (business, etc.) in majoring for maybe financial math, financial engineering etc. Although at the undergrad level I still want to double major. Now, this is important...

"Dr. Derman: Learn the math, finance and programming, and then learn a lot about business too. And try to understand the economics and “physics” and intuition behind the models, not just the math. And learn to communicate what you know clearly and concisely and metaphorically. And then have...

Unfortunatly, yes everyone started to discuss jack. Instead of the original intentions. Although this was probably the most productive thread for me yet. Thanks everyone. If anyone still has anything to add please add. Although before this thread is done I am interested in complete...

Thank you all very much so far. Each comment adds to my knowledge of what exactly to do. And jack I did read your comments. I am not ignoring anyone. Just like in philosophy you do have to look at the both side everywhere. Sjfan/mahras does provide me with valuable insides as well. Of course I...

Hey Jack, Actually it is a mandatory requirement for me as well as others (even english major) to take macro. It is curriculum corses that is a drag, killing me here. LIT, ENG, PHIlosophy, SOCiology, etc etc. Have to take it unfortunately. So what you are trying to say quant is a dead end job...

I have not thought of that as of yet. I guess, I have couple of options. Take unnecessary CIS for the major/minor, but the ones that will help me with programming in the future. Or take half during undergrad and the rest with MS which I will be doing in math, eco, fin. Haven't decided as of yet...

Hey guys thank you all for the input. SJ what classes are missing in that program? Can I feel it in with math or Finance major? This is only a undergrad class, I am assuming they will teach me something in the BS right? Or should I just get it prior to that? Hershey. Thank you for that...

In Baruch it is a Finance/Investment major. I am not making this up. So lets just suppose it is a FInance major. Sorry for confusion. http://www.baruch.cuny.edu/ugradprograms/eco.htm#Major http://zicklin.baruch.cuny.edu/programs/undergrad/degrees/fin.html/ PS I just found this should I...

LOL. I was joking but the rule states something in this nature. If an underlined security has pulled back from an all time high by as much as 20+% , then it is in downtrend. Not my rule, I was just joking. I guess it work for fortunate few.

Remember the 20% rule? They'll be fine. To many of them to get depressed about. Most of them are still living in rural areas, when industrialization is finished then we can worry about their economy. Why are we worrying about their economy if ours is doing much worse???

'75 was counted wrong #9-10. Missed a lot of info. Two waves. I do not know how true it is but in last month SFO same thing was projected. i forgot the article just look around the magazine and you will find it. If you need it indefenatly I might send you info if you PM me. PS if same...

I do not think anything will happen until investments and loans will be withdrawn from us. After that we might look like Germany prior to WWII. Although I highly doubt that outcome. I believe everything will be fine, it always turns out to be fine right?:)

As I stated previously it is more about intelligence than money for me. But, I say 6 figure job is fine with me. Regardless, what I learned so far is..take math a lot of math. Change schools ( I am thinking another year in Baruch than switch...when I finish with sophomore year). By the way, I...

Honestly, I believe that Michel Scott is the most rational human on this thread. No offense to others of course. What would you recommend to a 18 year old??? With no money aside from trading account which he treats as a GOD. PS what ever you do. DONOT get into MFE...that is my turf...I...

Actually Baruch is not half bad. Ok, you got a point about NYU being better. Yeah, Baruch can do better in some case...fine I give up I say it is right in the middle of the pole. Actually, I love trading but I am more interested with theories how it is done etc. Call me more education loving...

Wow, this thread probably gave me more information than all other threads combined. Thanks guys. Yes, I am currently attending Baruch just finished freshman year with a 3.6 GPA. I haven't started any courses that deal with really hard math yet. (although I just finished the remainder of...
