Is there a delay on viewing the specialist order book? Years ago there was a 10 second delay for traders to view ty he specialist order book, for traders who paid a monthly fee. Been awile.

Is there a delay on viewing the NYSE Order Book? Many years ago traders could pay a fee and view the order book with a 10 second delay. Been a long time.

Absolutely. However, what I was getting at is that when you have enough traders and gamblers acting in losing but high varience ways, a few will get lucky. If those lucky few keep it up, most of them go broke. While the luck-boxes are winning or if they stop what they are doing and cash out...

Yes.. probably survivorship bias. It is likely this fellow has been a luck-box rather than a highly skilled winning trader. Niederhoffer looked like a genius for years until he blew up two hedgefunds. .... I knew a guy who ran 5,000 into 30 million shorting high-flying Nasdaq stocks many...

What What I was suggesting is this TST may basically be a scam: TST training may not be winning training and they may be simply giving back a small amount, via funded accounts, of what they make from their Combine fees. There are quite a few complaints online about TST that seem to have the...

Unlike these cynical skeptics, I know you are not a snake oil salesman and that you are very smart to boot! It pains me to say that I can not purchase your system because it produces too many loses in a row. Do you have a more consistent system I can buy, sir?

Years ago equity trading firm Shoenfeld trained their traders on simulators and the backed them with cash. Some traders were eventually handed many millions to trade with. However, potential traders were screened (most not taken) and then trained on-site by big winning traders. No one paid to...

I will take a wild guess that Top is making their profits from the Combine training fees they collect. Clearly they collect far more than they pay out. If somehow too many magically started passing; well, you know... Umm... well... I bet that will never happen. Probably those very few who...

Very true. Looking back there was SOES (long ago) arb, NYSE Opening Orders, following short sellers down on low volume stocks, fishing for NYSE price improvement, etc...

Where can I follow CIS?

The typical hedge fund is a scam and does not make this much. Most hedge funds figure to do worse than their benchmarks after the fees they charge; often something like 2 percent of capital and 20 percent of profits over a years time. Very few hudge funds have beaten their benchmark after 10...

They are all scams. This is like betting with a bookmaker who charges you far too much to bet- too much spread in the line.

Is Lescor still trading?

Do you think you can beat negative expectation game such as dice or roulette, in the long run? Maybe do this by jiggling the money around somehow (?) ____ Nevermind. Looking at your old posts almost has me laughing. Best wishes and good luck. 14,389 posts! You should get an award.

With 14,389 posts on a blocked profile, I would like to bet you are not a professional trader, speculator or gambler. Serriously, it is clear you are none of the above. You are entitled to have opinions, argue incorrectly and not learn. Perhaps when it comes to technical terms you like to...

Unless we are misunderstanding terms, you are incorrect- flat out wrong, so let me see if we are just on different pages: It is well known that there is no risk management/money management scheme that will make a dice player or a roulette player a long term winner because the player has a...

What type of trading do you do these days? Many years ago I think you were in a huge opening order crusher.

It even hurts those trading small size.

Many of the old successful winning traders exploited market and regulatory inefficiencies that no longer exist, as was mentioned by a prior poster in this thread. The "easy" money is usually made by finding a glitch in a system.
