A typical day, and how it contrasts with how a typical day went back in the beginning. I won't discuss strategies or tips relative to that topic as that is not the topic of this thread, and would just plain rather not. I am a news event driven trader in terms of selection, tape reading for...

Double would be 5.7. The highest rate Citi offers on regular funds is 4 even right now, better, but hardly "almost double". Also note that the 4 is in a promo account. What happens with those is, even with rates not moving, once you open the account they slowly lower the rate over time and offer...

Mutual fund managers are judged primarily on relative performance to their respective indices. Being in too much cash is a risky proposition for them; they don't want to miss a move and under perform their index. It's not regulatory.

That guy who owns the 14 room penthouse at the Ritz residence? He's not a prop-firm trader. That guy with the private jet? He's not a prop-firm trader. That guy with the second home in Vail and another in St. Tropez, etc.? Not a prop-firm trader. Any questions? I'm mostly prop, and...

Good read.

My point Don is that you are stressing the positives of prop, and not the negatives, while doing the opposite with running money. There are pros and cons to each.

Don, A couple things that come into play here: Not that I argue with you, but some things are unclear. In general, but specifically at Bright since you are the one responding here: Does bright offer futures? Secondly: Prop Trader: Experienced trader with access to and uses 5...

As anyone can research, my past posts ( including one a couple days ago) was very positive on Anvil, and I still am. But I do echo this quote. Today I got delayed, then disconnected a couple of times (while my other programs continued quoting at full pace)

Yeah. While the intra-day locates are 95% of my locates, the bite on overnights is particularly harsh. Cut some costs when bullets left, and then again when the short-exempt went market-wide (x-essex), but now adding cost back with all these locates lately.

Citibank has for a long time had these kinds of limits. This has nothing to do with withdrawals. They in no way and have never had, limits on how much of your own money you can simply withdraw, or even wire out.

Anvil was solid for me today. Unfortunately, I can't say the same for my E-signal. Thankfully had the Anvil for quoting while E-sig was figuring itself out.

Urbandigs.com, great NYC r.e. blog.

That's the higher end of the market when it comes to studios. Just don't want people to think 3250 is the average price on studio rentals.

I almost exclusively watch the sales market, but... Vacancy rates in NYC rentals is so low (as in .75-2%) combined with sales prices so high, I would think the rental market won't change drastically one way or the other until selling prices do (when rents will follow in the same direction).

I can't argue with the specific "stats", but I follow the r.e. market pretty closely in the city, and from what I've seen the market as a whole (as in market sans 15cpw, etc.) is off, no way are we making new highs. On average, more price drops, longer time on market. There is still tight...

Not on the list, but wow.

That wouldn't be "no reason".

Yes, still here.
