you think you know what you're talking about, which is what makes you an ass. having a violent hard-on for someone who's putting up great links, also qualifies you for the title. for instance, that single jane's street link has more value than every word you've probably ever uttered. that...

I use a fork to eat soup.

i was a newbie back when i started trading just before pdt was passed. at the time, i was trading with a small account at a retail firm. as a result of pdt, myself and many other traders were forced to look at other options, and made the move to one of these firms. if you know the history of the...

i don't think mercury would be doing nearly a billion shares a month if they weren't a teeny bit honest and also fulfilling some sort of obvious market demand. namely, a very small deposit, high relative leverage, industry platforms, low fees, and little hurdles in setting up an acct. no real...

it's because you're an ass.

capital use is the only reason to trade prop. i disagree you can't do tech with retail. lime and to a lesser degree, genesis, have been providing infrastructure for awhile now. ideal prop: - a decent chunk of capital use, 10M+ - 100% payout - low capital put-up, enough to cover any...

no symbol change. was halted for half a day for the transfer to carry over.

no, when i said "them", i was referring to the arca trade desk. i don't use IB. this was a native arca peg sent by an etp holder via fix directly to arca.

had a short order pegged to the offer in a major ETF today. thick book, penny spread. as soon as the order went out, it not only crossed other mkts books, but their own and removed liquidity from their own book... 30 cents (1%) lower !!!! had my desk call them up and their reply was "it was a...

great analysis there dt, unfortunately, maestro's whole argument is MOOT... and the reason is: THE OP REFERENCED ACRARY'S WORK WITH NON_CORRELATED SYSTEMS, WHICH HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH R:R, BUT RATHER SHARPE.. IE VOLATILITY OF RETURNS!!! so NOTHING is in contention here, except for the...

I missed the part where the OP stated strat diversification increases R:R. He referenced a specific work of Acrary, which doesn't talk about that either. From everything I've read the only one who threw out R:R was Maestro in the misguided attempt to argue something that was never even...

This is pretty funny. That statement wasn't his argument, that was his closer because you're being a bit thick. Pretty sure he meant for you to look at his math... and in which case he is correct. There shouldn't be an argument here. Yolanda's chance of a blowout is bigger. Regardless if the...

the other weird thing is they both have around 7000 posts each... ...show em your trades or don't, just, whatever you do szeven, don't get into an argument with these guys. happy groveling boys.

forget it.

you're asking a 2 month profitable trader to send you his trade list and PL history... (which he's actually doing)... ...so yeah, it's clear.

you're right, we're all misunderstanding... i for one am misunderstanding how you are commenting on something you don't quite understand.

It's not... scalping is harder. Per your imaginative description it sounds harder as well... not to mention inaccurate.

It's really whatever works best for the individual. I agree with mschey, though... sometimes it's just stupid not to. If you trade equities, a lot of time the liquiduty just isn't there to get out and by the time it stops moving (most times pretty quickly) it's usually signaling another...
