i only understand 85% of what you're saying. you are in China right now. in China, the maximum Swift payout is 10%, but in other countries, it is around 35%. you are trying to get out of Swift and find a job in Hong Kong or Canada. is this correct?

what is the "10% chinese paid out scam"?

armenian aircraft causing this dip?

lol as if i need to give any of you my money or offer you anything. like i said i knew there would be capacity problems. to the poor, smart, and hungry prop shop traders who are the real deal but have no capital, no contacts, no reputation, and don't get any respect: _understand what i'm...

hence the escrow.

well as we all know, risk-adjusted returns is a nice thing to sell, but the reality is quite different. there are 8,000+ hedge funds out there? how many have >20% return the past 5 years with sharpe >1.5 and drawdowns less than 5%? what % of total hedge fund assets do they represent? you...

is it so unreasonable? perhaps you should think about what every investor is doing when they put money with a money manager. the investor assumes all the risk but the manager shares the profit. if the manager does well, he collects fees. if he blows up, he still keeps the fees but the...

if i give you 5K, will you guarantee my 5K in return for keeping 50% of the gains? no matter what happens you owe me at least my 5K principal after 1 year. (we'll set up an e-escrow or something for this, should be easy since it's only 5K) if you make 120k again with my 5K, then you...

to the people who say their return cannot be measured because they trade at a prop firm and they're using the prop firm's leverage: what is your non-leveraged return? $pnl / max buying power. if you never hold overnight, then assume you would have 4:1 leverage if you were trading on...

In the Atom, its 220 horses will propel you from zero to 60 mph in 3.5 seconds. What's more, it's capable of cruising comfortably at 160 miles per hour. Most supercars bear an impressive list of technical specifications and stats, but experts look first to one figure and one figure only...

lol chances are about zero he will ask you any of that. if the interviewer like you, he'll hire you. if he doesn't, he won't.

about a year or two ago, Richard Dennis was interviewed in either Stocks & Commodities or another trader magazine. didn't he say himself that the turtle rules don't work anymore? i also remember that he didn't seem to approve of the fact that a couple of his former turtles are disclosing his...
