    Is the AMEX next?

    I think an international exchange will scoop up the AMEX (most likely the LSE). Whether that will pass regulatory scrutiny is anyone's guess, but it will add interest nevertheless. Anyone know what is going down there in terms of lease rates? Purchase price?

    Is the AMEX next?

    The PHLX got bought out this week by NASDAQ for over $650 Million (they bought out the Boston Exchange last month for $61 Million). http://biz.yahoo.com/ap/071107/nasdaq_philadelphia_exchange.html?.v=8 Although the AMEX is not nearly as strong as the PHLX in options liquidity, it does...

    Jasper Capital

    It's true I guess. Him and his partner thought their s**t didn't stink at Assent. I guess now I know why.

    Jasper Capital

    From what I heard from people who know him well, David Glass was the real-life character behind the movie Boiler Room> I guess he never learned his lesson the first time

    benchmarq trading

    I am under the impression that certain statement applies to new traders who are looking for training (I know they have a pretty good training program). I have been with them for a while trading remote and have only good things to say. Yes, the system was down today, but what system doesn't...

    Benchmarq Trading

    Plllllllllllllease bighitter. Anvil is blast from the past from the Watcher days. It has no support whatsoever (neither Hammer for the matter) because Assent is now owned by a private equity firm, which could not give a sh*t about traders and the trading business. Blackwood on the other hand...

    Benchmarq Trading

    Outdated? The system has updates every other week! I have been trading for a while, and I am very satisfied with the system and capabilities. Anvil on the other hand, is a system that does not even compare to Blackwood in terms of functionality. Anvil does not have basket trading and a host...

    Genesis Securities, Pros and Cons

    I have been trading since 2000 with quite a few firms, and I can safely say I have never met a more responsible group of individuals who run a trading business. I always get paid on time (twice a month), and in fact, when I didn't ask for a check a few months back, they called me and reminded...

    NYC Prop Firms

    Who are you kidding? Graybox always goes down and all of HOLD's offices use CRT monitors circa 1999. Also, they are very litigious: they threaten to sue anyone if they are even thinking of defecting to another firm. Wouldn't want to deal with a firm like that.
