    I have around 10 to 15 contact requests a day on linkedin from recruiters but I think the problem is more with the junior guys.

    Programmer interviews

    I get literally 200 cvs if I have 1 position for a junior/graduate dev. It's insane, in the UK the nr1 degree with the most unemployed is CS. I'm not making this up. https://www.computerweekly.com/news/2240238124/Computer-science-graduates-have-highest-unemployment-rate

    How to overcome the inability to accept small losses when wrong on trades?

    I have a very simple fix for you, in the next trades for the next month you ONLY focus on how much you can maximum loose and you do not focus on how much you can win. A trade that you exit at your systems stop loss is a good trade. You are only going to trade 'good' trades in the next month.

    Is active trading a viable job for an individual?

    I completely disagree with paper trading / demo trading. The hardest thing for me and for many traders is to control yourself once you have your money on the line. No way you will learn to control this number 1 skill by watching a number move and have $0 emotion on the line. Sorry, but no...

    Who will teach me?

    That is absolutely correct. There is no country like the USA where you can just go and say, show me your credit score. That says so much about a person, it's unbelievable. I received a credit score in the USA and I have no problem showing it to anyone I do business with, I wish they have done...

    Oh Noes : Most Republicans Who Bought Obamacare Coverage Like Their Plans

    Yes, also the people from the unions and the staff from the congress etc. But more importantly, the study is 'are you satisfied with the service of your care' not the price. Mine was $350/month before, with obamacare it jumped to $1150 a month. And I couldn't keep my previous plan, I had to...

    That is the exact big problem technical analysis has. This happend this morning : "Gold Slumps Most In 2014 As "Someone" Dumps $1.37 Billion In Futures At US Open" You can't do numbers lines, support levels, technical levels, analyses, voodoo, whatever when somebody on a Monday just...

    Who will teach me?

    The only way IMHO is to sit next to day traders who do this day in day out trading with live money and who have been doing this for over a decade. I'm doing this in an office in NYC day in day out. Everybody sitting next to me, can see the winners and losers day in day out. All the rest is...

    What degree/master/phd would be the best for a trader?

    Dream on. Every fund you make will have to disclose the past funds track records were you was a part of it. Bigger investors in your fund will do due diligence and that's where it ends directly. Again, dream on.

    What degree/master/phd would be the best for a trader?

    Me, as a private pilot, flying for fun, King Air 90C and PC12 laugh with jokers like you flying these midget planes costing only a few bucks to get in the air. If you would be real, bragging about all your millions, and being a ski slave instructor in europe (yeah we have to import them...

    What degree/master/phd would be the best for a trader?

    Sure he can. Most coding teams in HFT trading are relatively small. The most coding goes about integration, risk control, middle and backoffice and other items. I remember the days when optiver started http://www.optiver.com/ and I know the founders. Why do people always want to believe, it's...

    What degree/master/phd would be the best for a trader?

    No it's not. The industry has seen that the last 10 years, the trading strategies that these guys make are very complex and lose the most money. HFT trading strategies are not complex, they are very straightforward and it's more about low latency code than making something new. That's why you...

    Backlash stirs in US against foreign worker visas

    I'm sorry, but if there's one thing you guys can do is at least respect native americans. Not immigrants, give me a freaking break. What's next, winning the world cup soccer?

    Backlash stirs in US against foreign worker visas

    They indeed deserved it. If they wouldn't flip screens with zero risk in the past and making money daily by helping their buddy out on the floor when the other day that buddy helped them out, only screwing the customer, I couldn't be more happy that they can't make money anymore with zero risk...
