    Platinum Plus Trading?

    There is no 11 Broad St. so I don't know what building you went to. Odd numbers are on the East side of the street and starts with 15. I work around the corner on Exchange, so I know. BTW, it's suite.

    Why Use Prime Brokers?

    Does this mean that props such as Bright who use Redi are paying this amount or is the commish closer to the 1/2 cent norm, and the rate you mention is prime cut? I know people here have said Redi is more expensive compared to Assent, et al, but I can't imagine it would be that far out of tune...

    Pentium D and Core 2 Duo--which is better for trading pc?

    Not for nothing, but if you are trading, you should have at least another computer to do all the other bs. Esp if you are running 2 platforms, ideally, you should put that 2nd platform on another pc, so according to your requirements, 3 pcs man. It may seem like hardware overkill to you, but...

    FX Prop Firms

    FX Chicago www.fxchi.com Anything else can't say. To me, everything left of the Hudson (ok maybe the Delaware) is a different country. Everybody speaks so strangely!

    FX Prop Firms

    Outdated webpage. Their space in NYC, 11 Broadway 13th floor, has reverted back to FXCM's prop trading. Spanton and Co. have migrated to warmer temps. The 954 area code should have been a give away, but call away. Other fx prop houses in NYC are FXCM, FXdd has a prop group, some group...

    What is the correct answer for a trader?

    Bottom Line it's a profit. At the end of the day, your account is that much richer. Forget about it. Next day trading. Don't get caught up in the would have's, should have's, could have's. Tomorrow is a new day. On the reverse, if you were down 8%, ready to stop out your trades, but you...

    Abby Cohen: ‘Just calm down. This is not 1987‘

    This is especially true for the Gross crew. For the past 3 years, every time he got on TV he was calling for the end of rate hikes, first at 3%, then 3 1/2%, then 4%, etc. It became so obvious that all he was trying to do was jawbone the price of bonds higher because he had such a large...

    Redi

    AS a follow-up inquiry, other than Bright, are there any other props using REDI as their platform? To Don, since you have been using REDI, have you personally traded any of the other financial instruments thru the platform, i.e. futures, fx?

    Developments at Assent LLC

    On Craigslist this morning there was a new ad for traders in their downtown office. After what has happened and all the negative press they are getting here, is this then the result - that they lost a bunch of traders and are looking to restock? I would think that the incident shouldn't have...

    "Rogue Trader" Nick Leeson plans comeback

    Nick lLeesons would not need to come to a forum of predominately amateur traders to ask about a forex broker. C'mon guys, use your heads. No matter how far one may be removed from the industry when you were at his level, you still have some contacts on the inside who would help long before he...
