    what happened to NYSE "opening indications" ?

    There is no point in arguing the SLG issue. It's the complaint frame of mind. Pros know that there is no way of knowing what would have happened had a variable like this been changed. For all you know it might have scared some short funds into covering and opening even higher than that.

    Turning K-1 into Earned Income?

    There are a lot who trade remotely with prop. It's essentially trading privately, which is what I consider myself to be doing. Going through a prop firm is just the setup for my personal trading business. Simply put, they are another service provider, albeit the most important one. You're not...
