    Esignal outage

    Mine is down as well. At least FOR ONCE Esignal has admitted its their own fault. Normally when you call them for assistance, its always your fault, and never theirs.

    Did JJC *Jim James Cramer* have a falling out with some of CNBC staff?

    Seems to me Cramu isn't happy unless he is pissed at someone. He lives to fight with people.

    Marcin: Paraphrasing:"Too Many Stupid Hedgies and Traders" in the marketplace

    I tend to disagree. Take a look at the VIX. Lowest in history.

    Winn Dixie

    That was my point. Winn-Dixie did dominate here in the south for quite some time, but Super Wal-Marts are popping up left and right. Coupled with the fact that Wal-Mart is capable of opening a store in about 4 months or so, it really puts the pressure on an already strained business plan...

    Winn Dixie

    IMO it's a matter of pure economics for the consumer. Winn-Dixie simply can't compete with Wal-Mart. With the proliferation of the SuperCenter, it has put a huge squeeze on an already thin margin business. Add that with the WD stores are always dirty, their produce is horrible, their prices...

    Book regarding Cramer

    I read it a couple of times Slim. I enjoyed the book. It gets a little bit caustic at times, but overall an entertaining read. The author is a little bit whiny about his experience on Jim Cramer's trading desk. Sure he took some abuse from Cramer, but he also made millions of dollars in personal...

    SAC Capital's Trading Strategy?

    Forgive me for being rude earlier Bladerunner. What I was referring to is that SAC is much much larger than you might suspect. They probably do engage in some value investing, but that is a very small part of what they do. Information and order flow is at the heart of SAC's operation. They...

    Market Monk

    IMHO, its very easy to post your results on a blog after the fact. MM claims to be Gann based, and typically Gann followers are very good traders on historical charts. In real time Gann doesnt work out so great. I have no reason to doubt the guy, but I would much rather see a (near) real time...

    Amibroker question

    I have an issue with building a custom exponential MA in amibroker. The formula for an EMA is (close*ratio)+(prevEMA*(1-ratio)). With amibroker formula language, is there a good way to recall the prevEMA (which would be the value calculated on the previous bar)? This would also tie back to...

    $100B hedge fund

    With all those guys, I'd like to see him try to do this! (scroll down to the platform snapshot towards the bottom.) $1758.84 in 26 days. That is an average of $67.647 a day. Projected, that is $24,691.40 in a year. 24.69% with less than .5% (current) drawdown! Beating Standard &...

    Moive the Rogue Trader

    I really loved the short-lived show "Bull." http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0254892/ My girlfriend at the time and I would religiously watch this show every week. Too bad they had to cancel it. Although I heard it continued on the UK. If you notice, "Bull" and "the $treet" came on TV around...
