You should take one of these... :D

Go for the GS offer.

X_trader is way better, its more of a professional platform, while JTrader is more average retail trader.

They do not. I was fooled by Velocity, they told me I could try them out (with X_Trader) at 2.82 RT for 2 months as a special offer for ET members. I sent a message to their handle here in ET, and I got a mail back confirming my new setup acc. was given the 2.82 price. After a while i...

Hello world, and good night.

I know a female HFM in Northern part of Europe, and she is quite hot too!

Scalping is more than one tick, and often involves having positions for many minutes, hey - even hours. In my eyes NO ONE can "be sure about the direction of the market". I take what the market give. You do not know ANYTHING about the chance of ANYONE elses acc. beeing wiped out, bc you do NOT...

1. Do you think it is smart to call a successfull strategy idiocy? 2. Do you "understand the market" better than a scalper? 3. If someone found an edge in scalping, would you like to see them refusing to take advantage of it?

Instead of turning this thread into a prop. vs. HF discussionin I would like to submit some links which may be in the authors interest www.citcoweb.com - i think the largest admin of funds (do not know thier req. for beeing a client tho). www.ubs.com/fundservices general...

Thank you for clearing this up, that sounds a little bit different and way better than; "There may be a legitimate reason for starting a "fund" but I haven't heard of one yet." But dont pretend the average buying power for the guys at your place give the same $ in pocket as the BSD traders...

This is hilarious. 1. The term itself is not misleading. There are misunderstood people mis-using the term. 2. Dont you pay someone to trade for you? 3. If you are in fact a good trader, say trading your 100k retail acc. and it has a consistent growth - Woldn't you rater trade 100 M, for a...

IRS? Whats that? lol I have done 1200 trades in one day (not punching them myself tho!). But I monitor each one of them (or at least try to), and I closely watch the total in both points and $. No problem. Manually I have punched close to 200. That was not a problem either, you just feel...

I also want to point out, specialists can be one of the most annoying people in the world. And I can assure you, the DO feel the same for me :) But I think we should use the time to focus on other issues related to trading rather than having insane fights over a cent. Just get rid of them -...

Very good point.

Its not about ruining the process of the trade, its about making it better - faster, more fair, more transparent and more cost effective. Here in europe we are managing all the markets fine without old-style floor traders, so why shouldn't you guys do the same? Whos missing the old days...

Yep, think we can agree, Im not saying its impossible to make this work, I just think its not here a newbie should start. Esp. not when he says hes loosing bigtime, its like hes got to learn how to walk before trying to ride a bike :)

Writing means you can collect a lot of small premiums over a long time, but suddenly rare events occur in the market, and in seconds all your profit made over months, years can be wiped out. It WILL work until it does not work anymore. Then its to late for you unless you are managing money...

I have used Omni Pro, but never even used/seen/heard of Blackwood Pro. Before I got hand on Omni I heard a lot of good stuff, it should be this and that, but I never found it more than 'ok'. I did not use it for a long time. I think it is somewhat old fashioned, and it for sure cannot...

This is great news.

I like to calculte the risk, and there is no way I can manage to calculate the risk in this one.
