    Hate Speech or Common Sense?

    Racism is illegal in Canada. Your post would be illegal in Canada... and subject to prosecution. Great law... keeps people like you out.

    Hate Speech or Common Sense?

    Oh... not to worry. If the ** Dutch ** can crack down on their Muslim Fifth Column... The rest of EU is not far behind. And Turkey's potential membership is dead, dead, dead. Also... the Dems do not have a 2008 candidate with military experience. Hillary, Obama, Edwards for...

    President Ahmadinejad: Man of the Year

    After re-reading the piece... It's not so crazy after all... And is widely circulated on places like here: http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2006/12/person_of_the_year_ahmadinejad.html (1) Buchanan clearly compares "A" to Hitler. (2) "A" is pretty much a media creation...

    games and hiring traders

    Absolutely. Most great traders have a long history of playing many different Zero Sum Games. Niederhoffer's "Education of a Speculator" is Exhibit A. Why are you unaware of this???

    President Ahmadinejad: Man of the Year

    >> Why do a billion Muslims prefer Ahmadinejad to America? >> That is the question that needs to be addressed. It's not America... it's all Infidels. One billion Muslims have been brainwashed as children... To hate all infidels and countless other forms of intolerance... Towards Jews...

    President Ahmadinejad: Man of the Year

    Sort of. But it's really the emergence of the technology to easily/cheaply stream video. The YouTube guys were just ** crooked enough ** to ignore all laws... and got lucky. The whole phenomenon was happening anyway.

    What really happened ....11 september

    You keep linking to 1 (one) highly dubious site... That offers nothing more than speculation. Classic downside of Free Speech. Gotta take the bad with the good. As a "believer" or whatever... Much more is required of YOU before YOU charge specific individuals with ** murder **. I used...

    IB Failed Conditional Orders

    IB allows you to enter many elaborate, conditional orders. This in no way mitigates the Trader's Responsibility... To ** monitor ** ALL orders in real-time. I made about 60,000 trades through IB in 2006... And it's just a fact of life... Due to the complexity of today's trading...

    Tiny Hedge Fund Startup Questions

    As someone with an LP for > 10 years and managing a small 7 figure hedge fund... Forget about do-it-yourself anything for 2 reasons: (1) Saving a few thousand in legal or accounting advice is INSANE in the long run. For example... You will become an IRS Audit Magnet... if you are...

    What really happened ....11 september

    I find it extremely hard to reconcile... Your apparent Christian Faith... With your promotion of highly dubious Conspiracy Theories that slander specific individuals. There are 100 Senators and 535 Congressman... At least 50% of whom strongly oppose the Administration. Please provide us...

    Anyone getting Raped on NYSE Market orders?

    Why dont you just accept the new reality... And develop whatever infrastructure you need... To ** manage ** fragmented orders at various price points. If you send 500, 500, 500 and 500 at 4 different price points... You will do waaaaaay more volume and profits... Than sending a 2000...

    2008: The first $1 billion presidential race

    Wow. This is either cynical to the point of naivete... Or the CHEAPEST kind of political jab. You should go and live for one year in a Third World country... And experience what corrupt really means. Just to give a "European" example... The Parliaments of both Russia and Ukraine...

    Career Advice: Here are my trading results

    Unless independently audited... your results are not verifiable. No serious business person is gonna spend many hours... Studying your statements to "verify" anything. Just pointing out... That if you are embarking on a career in the business world... The sooner you start doing things...

    POLL: Excluding specific members from "contributing" to specific threads

    There is no attempt made at "quality control" at Elite Trader... It's just not part of the business plan. If one visits serious forums like RealGM or even 2+2... The difference is NIGHT and DAY. Noobs and trolls do not have the same "rights" as experts... Noobs and trolls are not...

    CFA - Is it Worthwhile?

    How is your cubicle? How is your daily commute to work? How is your 30 minute lunch break? How is your 2 week annual vacation? It's Conformists like you that never, ever change the world.

    CFA - Is it Worthwhile?

    You sort of missed my point. Above all in a pro trader you need: (1) Life-long obsession with Zero Sum Games. (2) A track record of intelligent risk taking. (3) An outlaw or enterpreneurial spirit. This sort of person would NEVER be grinding out a CFA... So he could sit in a...

    Career Advice: Here are my trading results

    The only way to seriously "verify" trading results... Is to have an appropriate business structure... And have Annual Audits done by a reputable Accounting Firm (cost 5-10K/year). If you do not have this... you may as well start today. The other issue is whether you were lucky... or...
