Ya this is very true. I didn't pick up programming right away on the first try myself. I felt boxed in by most languages... their learning curves are so steep. I'm dabbling in python and thinking about ruby as well. It seems foolish to commit a huge amount of time to a language unless you're...

Dude, the only reason those assets he's making money on are rallying is because the dollar is falling. Its not a strategy, its a single trade! You don't see me running around on youtube, or going to conferences saying, do this one trade and its all good.... He looks foolish if you actually...

His funds were down 50-70% in 2008. Lets hope can cook.

Did they sterilize the TARP money with CDSs?

They must be leaking toilets, but not inside info. PIMCO didn't buy bonds until way after April 5th's bottom....

Prop is giving very good advice. Focus a bit on finding ways of increasing the liquidity of the strategy - increase the number of signals and / or see how it trades when things skew to the liquid names.. Most hedge funds won't bother with anything that doesn't scale into 10s of millions...

I made 50% on my account May. 6th. I had 95 strike TLT Jan 2011 Calls in my account, and had bought them April 5th. The truth is the bond Market rallied at around 9:30 that day (30 yr treasury) and I was at work, so I didn't participate directly. My long-term option position in treasuries...
