    Isn't anyone scared of system failure and panic!

    1. The NYSE's current system can't handle a large number of orders, regardless of if they get filled or not (as proven by last weeks debacle) 2. Nms, (being implemented Monday) will increase the number of orders (due to the majority of orders being cancelled) by about 10 fold. This will...

    Return of soes bandits on monday?

    Just wondering if anyone could tell me how the soes bandits made money before Sumo. I've heard talk that this style (or a similar one) may find its way into to NYSE on Monday, due to the fact that nobody (including the NYSE) knows what's going to happen with NMS on monday. Any...

    3 jobs that can give you 6 figures salary

    Stock Brokers, Investment advisors, Financial planners, etc... are all titles built to hide the term: "Salesman" to paraphrase Brian Tracy. Any form of self employment allows you to make good money. Sales just happens to be one of the few where you don't need any capital or experience to get...

    Adapting to the Hybrid

    It would be nice, but it would take some serious coin to take them on. It would be better for us to all start recording our L2s looking for specialist manipulation, then go to the sec and make the specialist prove the existence of the voluminous floor traders he claims always place orders that...

    The SEC Approves New Specialists' Obligations

    Its one thing to adapt to market changes. Its another to adapt to structural changes. This is completely unfair, just like the arca, and inet pricing changes. The specialist has inside information and should not be able to use it in any way whatsoever. Specialists were very poorly...
