I'd like to see what they can come up with in terms of prison design :D With a big T in every jail!

Why do they allow for this with futures by the way? Never really got it.

Well, point taken, I guess that was dumb of me. It's just that I feel this concept of "inside trading is bad, you should accept the losses even if you know about them and could avoid it" is quite wrong.

So... Basically this thread has no point? Short-term traders are not affected at all, and long-terms will simply have to take into account the fact that they should have taken to begin with anyway? :)

How does introduction of a new technology make a market more predictable? I imagine it's quite the opposite, with all the new infrastructure and restructuring and stuff...

So why wouldn't you forbid such trading at all, rather than sueing people for not agreeing to lose a trade you've allowed them to do?

:D Sorry :) You're not too polite though too. I mea, come on, that's Trump!

Haha, so true. I guess you'll have to use intuition for both cases :D

I don't exactly understand legal regulations of inside trading. What exactly can be considered "inside"? Being well-informed? And what should this guy do? Ignore the fact he's going to lose thousands bucks?

I'll just copy what I've said on reddit: "Well, markets in general tend to form bubbles at some point of their live cycle. It's normal, and the only thing you can do in such occasion is to try and snatch your piece of profit before it all turns turtle."

I can't agree more. The idea of a place where you have to gather together in a crowd to attend some event dates back to times when the performers were few and they couldn't entertain everyone individually. Nowadays this concept is not only out-dated but even dangerous, considering increasing...

Never trust ideas, always ask for a prototype. Do they have one?

I put India there as an example. Can't be sure I'm 100% correct, but to my knowledge it's a country with a really uneven income level. Middle class is a smaller part of their society, about half of their population lives around the poverty line, and at the same time the amount of the rich is...

Because I'm quite lazy and I know that if I allow myself to trade less, this might result in me starting to slack off even when I should put all concentration in trades :) So my question is not how to define my most effective hours (I know them already), but how do I make the second half of a...

Well, social targeting is fine in terms national stability I guess. Besides, Chinese government should know better what kind of domestic policy is required to rein their nation.

Such wealth makes pretty little sense, since you can't buy anything with it.

Nice one. It's one of those thoughts that are really basic when you know about it, yet are quite enlightening when first heard. And honestly, I can't claim I'm completely past this stage, as some of my trades from the past still haunt me.

Thanks! Yeah, I guess it's boredom that's my worst enemy in trading. Especially at the second half of day, when I know I have to keep doing trades, but most major events and news have already been traded. That's where I get the most distracted and that's when I lose most money. Have no idea what...

Imo PPP is not perfect as well. It takes averages, which is quite useless in highly stratified states like India or China. In many ways BM index (average by the country) is much more representative.

I like it how fast some people are to judge and evaluate.
