Seems MC has a functioning equivelent of Radarscreen. Would be interested to know in particular if it has improvements such as an auto off for an alert once hit when running in update every tick mode (as per TS8). I have yet to see this anyone overcome this serious handicap with TS2K via...

Yes, but of you did not know what it was about before seeing it you would not be able to differentiate it from any other Bollywood song and dance film.

In addition to inflation for outright padding of returns and thus performance fees, they probably used illiquid asset prices to smooth the returns and give that nice smooth ~1% a month that institutions like to see.

Agree, if you are going to survive long term i.e more than a few years you have to be brilliant or average but 'shock proof', which for me translates buying below a long term average or low and not using leverage. Effectively a value approach. Value players make money over the long term by not...

Thanks for your honesty and the figures Brandonf. It confirms what I already had long suspected, setting yourself up as a guru has a much better R:R and payoff than trading.

looks like I got that one right. expect more on a smaller scale i.e. overstated fund asets due to mark to make believe.

I think you have written the definition of 'Government' for the next edition of Websters. To use any other definition would be innacurate. I hope Websters do not compromise their integrity by using any other definition including words like 'representation' or 'people' etc.

What he means is that the Fed should bid up his portfolio stocks. "Patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel" Samuel Johnson, English 18th (?) Century man of letters

You are right, the collapse of credit is actually the main factor - something my post omits to mention.. I tried to play this by shorting Oil companies at $100 oil based price action and the fact that MF was all of a sudden demanding 90% margin for OTC contracts - didn't foresee the Fed...

What's happened to all the ET "China/Commodities will grow forever" cheerleaders who berated anyone who suggested otherwise?. I would have thought one would have been along by now to explain this huge peak to trough percentage in terms of supply/demand and fundamentals. Within a matter of...
