    What is Quant Trading?

    Yo Skitzo, volpunter is an ass#ole. It's not his fault he was just born that way, or so he thinks. We try to keep the dirtbag busy with janitorial activities most of the time, but he refuses to take his pills. Block the douche bag like I did

    Valeant? VRX

    Daal, I pretty much have the same reasoning as you. I'm stupefied that price seems to be holding (down) here, as I will add the following observation: There is no illegal activity but rather clear evidence of an extremely well lawyered up compliance-savvy executive suite. There IS evidence of...

    AMZN earnings

    Always makes me want to sell short, but the stock has the darnd'est propensity to increase in price.

    Prop firm raises comm – neglects to tell trader

    GPRO in a falling wedge

    Can you please explain how the chart pattern will lead to more sales of Gopro cameras &/or new products in a non-saturated market &/or the materialization of a wildly dreamy (if not financially successful) social side-biz?
