    Fastest NYSE Executions?

    A market buy order for an odd lot will give immediate execution at the posted offer (no matter what the offer size is), and market sell order will immediately fill you at the bid price. I'm not 100% sure, but I've heard something that your odd lot order might even get executed at a better price...

    Schonfeld, ETG which is better?

    I wouldn't be the trader I am if I couldn't feel the nonsense that you came up with. Right now I don't feel like discussing the firm I work for, I'm here for my own amusement and not their promotion. All I can say is that I"m sick and tired of Andover and their unprofessionallism(coming from...

    I'm a prop. trader at one of the firms you have mentioned. In my opinion all 3 firms are great places for starting traders, and they all have great traders. Best to my knowledge FNYS and ETG were recently hiring, and Schonfeld was not. All this and lots of other info is available on...

    Has anyone ever heard of this firm?

    I heard their traiding platform "shiller" is lightning fast. It's so awesome that will execute trades that you didn't even enter. You can always tell their traders from the 500K share bids and offers.

    A close friend of mine has a problem with his Sony Vaio notebook. It has a KP-700/256 INTEL Pentium III 700Mhz Micro PGA2 processor, and the stupid computer periodically restarts itself. We thought the problem was with the processor, because when we change the speed of the processor to...

    bullet construction

    Depends on the stock you want the conversion on. Once I paid 1.5 points to get the conversion on ASW (it's delisted now, and at the time was hard to borrow), other times I would get credit (like 0.25. 0.5). Also on the conversion you have to pay the interest. Coversions make sence if you trade...

    confused about prop trading

    And to answer your questions: 1. You are paid in the % terms of the profits generated, some firms pay % of gross profits. I personally wouldn't recommend working for a firm that pays to add liquidity. 2. You can make as much money as your trading style allows. If you are consistently...

    Trading with price action

    I successfully daytrade NYSE stocks from the tape alone. I do have the intraday charts for the stocks I trade, but they don't have any TA indicators on them, and I hardly even look at them.

    BS trading today

    This wasn't an entry error. The guy was bidding for a long time before the open. And I hit him couple of minutes before the open. There was also INCA bid at 52.05, but I was too slow to get him. It's all fare.
