    Very good post, jonbig04. I for one believe they behavioral information that can be derived from market activity, both long-term and intraday is why so many professors & scholars get into the markets in the first place. I must say that alot of the debate that cause the banter on the thread...

    macd indictor lags, is there software that doesnt

    Thank you for the enlightenment. I have been looking for an oscillator like this but have continously missed it. It solves a bunch of headaches for me and allows me to start looking at much shorter trade time frames. Thanks!

    macd indictor lags, is there software that doesnt

    Okay, I am a noob, but from all the information I have come across [I am chasing my CMT now], I have seen price & volume remain as the true measures of when and where to strike. But the problem with saying that the indicators are wrong, lag, etc. is that MOST OF THE POPULAR INDICATORS ARE...

    career path as a prop trader?

    Yeah. I would take that offer and run. Unfortunately for me, that is not an option unless it is in Chicago or Texas. You should definitely look into it.

    The Path Less Traveled...

    prt_systems has the right idea in many respects, but it does come down to what you want to do with your life. While Stanford is one of the best places on the planet to learn how to be an entrepreneur, if you plan on being a trader and or Analyst, you might want to consider The Drucker...

    Starting/Working for a Hedge Fund

    highlifejoker: I think that you may be missing the point. There are far more millionaire next door types than people on the "Carl Ichan" path. Not to say that anyone here would be managing an individual of that caliber's money, but the point here is that most people on this forum who launch...

    Prop Traders - Supplemental Income

    Not to beat a dead horse, but I think it is a personality thing. While a few people who are at the polar opposites of the personality spectrum might need to "burn their ships" the vast majority of us need an anchor to keep us floating out into the sea of indebted/homelessness. And...

    Real business in asset management; looking for partner(s)

    cosine: You would do well to rethink alot of the negativity in the posts that I have seen from you recently. I think you place too much emphasis on ET members thinking that they will be come the next DE Shaw or whatever. Most people are looking to be boutique managers like you suggested...

    Starting/Working for a Hedge Fund

    With everyone talking about the pros & cons of what PTF is discussing, why is there no sincere mention of becoming a Register Investment Advisor in a more traditional form from you nay-sayers? What I mean by this is an Investment Advisor/RIA [or a CTA] manages money for their clients'...
