this is 100% true on how to trade these wide spread iiliquid securities. most of these stocks have a very big spread 5-10% or more. back in the mid 2000s i use to trade illiquid stocks that trading this way. there was a huge edge to me watching these guys push these around and basically ride...

an execution trader has to get rid of a ton of size for his client. do you think he should show his entire hand to the whole market so everybody can front run his orders just for the sake of making the markets look crystal clear without any false impressions. by your theory the game of poker...

The office in short hills is a branch of coastal trade. I was just there last week Patrick and Leon run the office.

I heard they were changing to a hedge fund model but had to scrap it, wasn't enough interest in raising investor capital. Prop model is dead so who knows what their new model is.

I trade with them and I was told they would be going out Friday. Very annoying as this is holding me up for filing my taxes. My extension is up in October, technically they have to September to send them out cause it's a k1 if it was a 1099 it would have to gone out by January 31st.

Some prop firms give k1 which are great but I still have to file 1099 from penson for my retail trading which is a bitch. But after all the reporting hopefully u incorporated yourself then work your way back for your expenses. Hopefully after all the deductions from your biz your taxable income...

i trade for coastal and we have a pairs platform called centauri. but you are correct those low volume stocks are very correlated to what the market is doing. they old days market could be down 100 pts and somebody would rip one of those stocks up for over a pt. for no reason. What software...

tsx is the one i concentrate on. same market hours such as us markets so easily adaptable. just alot of pure trading based off charts, time and sales, level 2. hft is not prevelant if at all on this exchange. they might have two at most dark pools so the flow is basically one display facility.

sports betting for the us citizen is becoming more and more tricky. they are trying to close every loophole for a us citizen gambling overseas. for years i would have a book 5dimes and betjamaica to name my two favorite. but western union red flagged me a year ago saying i made to many...
