    Are you male or female

    Two things: 1. I wouldn't exactly define "so many women" as 12% (thus far) of the ET-population. 2. I don't think ET is a superior measure of the male to female traders, as many here are trading paper accounts or are retail traders. I think a more accurate result would come from looking...

    annaland's song of the day

    I certainly like Type O Negative more than Rage, but think Peter Steele sounds like hes constantly singing into a fan set on high.

    A traders rock song ?

    I'm pretty certain that's the NYSE.

    The Surf Report

    Actually, that is NOT the case and your possible hopes of turning surf’s cheese into a nondairy substance, should be voided on mystical basis. Had I stated “Only you could make these baloney posts and get them ET-trademarked”, I would surrender to your insightful reading of the words that...

    The Surf Report

    Only you, living off the high of annaland, a world of ecstasy, could make these baloney posts and get them ET-trademarked! You sure know how to combine those backrooms, their harvests and the 17 minute silent treatment; while still letting the old Jewish man indulge in his cheese…must it...

    Wanna be a Quant ?

    Why would you "make your own data" when you have CRSP, COMPUSTAT, TRACE, TAQ, etc? :confused:

    Wanna be a Quant ?

    I'm truly impressed! Not only because you were trying to answer something that no one asked, but also because you took something right out of wikipedia and tried making it your own! Nice going. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vasicek_model

    Good stuff, guys. I especially like the smiths video and song from atticus' attic! :) I'm taking it back to 1984... I've always wanted to know: who is Sherrie? <object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/bkzo8t0UAbQ&rel=1"></param><param...

    Wanna be a Quant ?

    I'm using Shreve as a supplement to Duffie's Dynamic Asset Pricing book. It's been very good thus far. Thanks for the references.

    Shreve, eh. I'm working through his Continuous Time Models book now. Did you have him?

    Wanna be a Quant ?

    I still don't see what MBAs have to do with quants. More importantly, why would a HF hire an MBA for a quant position and even expect them to solve maze-type problems? PS. surf is not a homosexicle and he better not be hitting on any girls. :)

    Wanna be a Quant ?

    No offense to you or any MBA, but generally speaking if you ask any quant or PhD he will attest that an MBA is just a series of power points – nothing quantitative about it. Ask an MBA to derive the Black-Scholes, Vasicek, or CIR model. They probably won’t even know what the latter two...

    Wanna be a Quant ?

    Why would anyone opt to get a certificate over a master’s degree? The quants you’d be competing with on the market will have their master’s and PhD’s, what will a certificate get you? Furthermore, if you're looking to get a certificate, I'd certainly look into Columbia's Financial...
