Thankyou for the kind words. Dispite some negativity on this thread in regard to small funds, I am not disheartened. In fact, unlike a lot of people, I appreciate opposing views on things. It helps me to reevaluate my own opinions. I hired greentradertax.com to set up my fund. GTT also does...

Interesting debate. . Does anyone here know about those websites that I asked about? I can't speak for others, but at least for myself, I want the fund to one day be a monster. Everyone has to start somewhere. For me, I had to start small. I agree, this venture will probably not be...

Impressive growth!!! Thanx for the insight. My accountant is asking the fund lawyer and I should hear back in a few days. I will post any legal advice on this thread, but I'm 95% sure that it is all legit. I was about to post on cogent hedge as well. Disciplinedhedg- I have a number of...

Aaron- Great chat yesterday. I didn't get a chance to ask one last question. You mentioned a few sites that showed hedge fund rankings. Do you know of any others. A few like Barclaysgrp.com didn't seem to work. I wanted to post my fund results, but was wondering if there are any legal rules...

I have no complaints. I'm up 15% this month, and trading with 50% cash. Doesn't seem that stupid. We're having massive 500 pt weekly swings. If you can't find a little meat, maybe you should just sit some out and wait for something easier and less volatile. This market has a very "same...

IB has openbook. I have heard that LYNX which has hammer has a much better openbook.

Mea Culpa- I still have all 130k of mine though. I've moved on somewhat. At this point, it will either come out fine (still possible) or be a nice tax loss at year end. I'm giving them 3 more quarters. BTW: I have talked with some middle management lately, they are as upbeat as ever, they...

I stand by my original post. I also think it's near time to short COF. Maybe one more up day will get us up 10% more there. I added a tad to some shorts today near the close, but will get more agressive. Keep KRB on your watch list also. Stocks don't go up 30% in 3 days. One more day and...

I listen to Kass a lot. He makes me 3-5k a month on average. Great trader.

Isn't this already what the Amex does? This is a small negative, but think of the positives for price improvement when you're slaphappy and bailing. The 2 will counteract each other and you'll make out net-net even.

Honest guys, if it weren't during mardi gras, I'd be there buying you all booze. I can't miss the gras though.

I kinda enjoy it. Every little deduction. I honestly add up the 1 dollar receipts i have from making faxes, or the 10c cost of copying at the library. Honest, i have all those receipts. Even saving 10 bux is great for me, even though I make or loose thousands a day in trading, I'll do anything...

Good luck man, I got mine from my dad. Worst case, just work a real job and save money. That's what a lot of people do. You only need a few k's for an emini. I wish I had more to add. Reading books won't make you money or success. You need real money. Open an account and trade 100 shares at a...

Let me go against the grain here also. I am halfway through the book. I found it difficult to get into. It is wordy and lots of it is very slow moving. I have tried over a half dozen times to get into it, and every time I'd trudge forward about 20 pages and get bored. One day, I intend...

no bill aba made a resolution. it means little

You too bro...

You used the A word, I might have cancer now..... lol Law was never meant to be rational... Just to make lawyers rich.

I can sue you for the collateral damages for having typed that here. That's the problem with the beast. Every stock is somehow involved, and if not, the lawyers will make them involved.

I think it's good that we start on this book. It is the grandaddy of all trading books. It's a great book. I prefer this version to the new one that was written recently. The man was a genious, but he also repeatedly broke his own rules, and most importantly, he overutilized leverage. If he...

These markets sure piss people off, but as long as you're making money, who cares. I really think that 5 weeks in is way too early to say how your year will look.
