how: trading on days i shouldn't be trading, on days you feel very careless, because you want to be somewhere else. and then bet large.

buying power, correlated to one's needs and risk profile. commissions, virtually non-existent, i am on a cut. I am specialized in nasdaq. major downfall: more than 3 years ago, i switched to futures to move up on the foodchain and failed. then i went back to nasdaq, but without the drive when i...

i have been trading full time.. for.. almost 5 years. been working for a rather large prop firm with no money down. Basically i lost my interest 3 years ago. if i would be interested i would be driving at least a new BMW now.

over and out, tapioca ;) this "experienced" prop trader is turning off the lights. i'll answer anyone's questions regarding the prop side of trading. i am also interested in hearing people's ideas about what next for me? i need money, but cannot do anything, don't even have a degree...

d*mn that's cheap. why?

Some time ago there was a computer which would "switch on" for a short time, once or twice a day. This made our boys a lot of easy money. What's funny about it, our guys would watch videos or play games all day until the computer would switch on and then they would do their thang (everything...

I think the main issue here is windows-based versus server-based. Java shouldn't be inherently more unstable. If an app is java AND server-based, yes, imo this will prolly be more unstable.

check out my post in the retail section on person to person stockbetting: Hey, I had this idea: At tradesports you can bet on for instance saddam's removal, in a scale of 0-100. What if you could bet on a stock's closing price for the month (as stated by nbbo), on a scale from 0 cent...

I have done it once and a while. you have to make huge winners in order to pay for the losers, as a losing trade is sometimes impossible to get out of. it is definitely easier to read the level 2 on these issues.

Hey, I had this idea: At tradesports you can bet on for instance saddam's removal, in a scale of 0-100. What if you could bet on a stock's closing price for the month (as stated by nbbo), on a scale from 0 cent untill 100000 cents. in the same model as tradesport.com's, eg. person to...

In some academic circles a plea has been made for facilitated block trades, to actually be a benevolent activity for price discovery and volume. Facilitated block trades make institutions more easily take up certain positions, resulting in more active (finetune) hedging activities on the...

My take on the guy is that he's great working with his mind (statistics etc. i couldn't come up with), but sucks with working with his feelings (fear and greed).

Are there any pro or prop firms in Europe specialised in nasdaq trading? My research untill now has only come up with possibly etrade professional. Anyone with more information? thanks! Bachelier

Any prop firms on the island?

"Really ? commen sense is not so common in trading" Well, look at the market. It's not hard to see that prices move in waves. Momentum is greatest in the middle and least in the beginning or end. So common sense would be to start looking for a reversal wave when momentum starts to fade.

def, thanx for the info. I can't find the calendar on bloomberg.com though?

uhh, minus some points here on the esx, hope it is due to inexperience, haven been trading it for a few days only!
