Thanks for the tip however I don't think I will mention the woman bartender to my girlfriend. :D

I am going to Chicago next week for a week of interviews with trading firms. Since I have never been to Chicago I would like some suggestions of things to do or places to see while I am there so that I can get the best feel of the city to give me a better idea about making the decision to move...

I agree with your post on the change in how stocks are moving. I too find it difficult to trade because I can't find or sense the momentum anymore. I was able to tell when momentum was coming in even after stocks slowed down from when they made crazy momentum moves all day to just making a few...

I forgot where I read this, but I remember reading the answer from an institutional money manager that they break up their orders so that they won't be front run by the specialist and everyone else. With less volatility they are not willing to pay any price on a stock if they don't have too...

LA just banned lap dances, VIP rooms at clubs, and any kind of touching including tucking cash tips for dancers at LA strip clubs. Here is the story. Los Angeles Bans Lap Dancing in Strip Clubs Tue Sep 16, 4:42 PM ET LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - You can look, but you can't touch or even...

If you are looking for a prop firm for futures I think the best place to look is probably a Chicago firm especially if you have a track record. You can probably get a lot lower rates thru a firm there then you get at most FCMs who hand out retail rates. Some of the firms would probably want...

This article give the breakdown of his pay if anyone is interested. http://biz.yahoo.com/rb/030827/financial_grasso_5.html

Great points. I feel this board has some good info at times on how rule changes are effecting traders and it is an excellent contrarian indicator when the market is at an inflection point with the bull or bear polls. However I don't think it is the best place to use as an example to support...

Your post seems to be kind of closed minded. Maybe in thinking that it can't be done has already stopped you from being able to make consistent money intraday. I would think it would be hard to do anything if you think it can't be done. I know several people that have made over 100K a year...

So are the nasdaq stocks the secret to your rumored large comeback this year?

I know what you mean about the office girl handing over new paper work. On top of that it seemed I was signing a new batch of paper every 2 days. Sungard must have a whole office dedicated to Andover prop paperwork stacked to the ceiling. Although this clause was in the paperwork, it was...

Good posts Dr. Zhivodka. It is nice to see a true professional on these boards and their insights into trading.

We must know some of the same people because I just heard this story too. However I did not get a good idea of how the rest of the office was doing. It is nice to see it happen but I guess does not mean much if it does not show up on your screen too. Now about the top 10 school MBA route...

I was wondering about that myself. It must be hard to sell his website subscription when you make 2 major market calls on several threads talking about his guru status and market knowledge and he is wrong on both of them. I guess that is why we have not seen him around in awhile.

I just tried it on mine but did it different. First I doubt this is the difference but I have the version before yours. I can draw a line on the 5 min chart, hit lock line, then change that SAME chart's time frame to a 15 min chart and the line is still there.

The same thing happen to friends I have in Colorado. I think it was a firm wide policy change, because about three of them were set to start and then the first day they went in they were suddenly told that they need to put money up to trade. Unfortunately they were out all the money for...

It was kind of funny because there were several responses on why TA still works but nobody addressed the real question.

Well really the post I made was looking for suggestions in order to be able to trade and have other more stable alternatives going at the same time. TA might work all the time but I know many TA traders that would do great and then not make money for 4 months as they adjusted to changing market...

Any one else have some real suggestions or possible secondary job ideas? I am looking for jobs that are not dead end type jobs such as bar tender,ect, but something that could develop into something in their own right. I have thought of the mortgage business seeing that I know a person who...
