No way! INKT was NOT trading at 89 cents during the bull market...

I've got nothing against Don. I'm just trying to keep things real around here. When someone steps up to badmouth others and assume a holier than thou stance, I like to step in and be the voice of reason in an industry of hyperbole and half-truths. Just trying to protect the newbies! For...

Before hogging up space on the server, let's see your credentials first. I don't want to wade through tons of material and find out you're a non-profitable, TA book regurgitating, generality spouting, bid smacking, wannabe trader. P&L statements for the last six months would suffice. I...

You DID pay for it, because the volume rebates should be going into YOUR pocket, not Don's. Besides, volume doesn't pay the bills, profits do!

Well, if you want to piss away money like that, then more power to you. Heck, what's $4,800 a year among friends! I've got a slightly used Brooklyn Bridge for sale if you're interested! Sucka... :p

Some trading groups have a trader success rate of 40-50% or better. This shows that the Bright model is not the best one in the industry. It all boils down to a firm's ability to pre-screen aspiring traders and the quality of training and on-going support it can provide.

I was referring to the initial minimum deposit required to get access to the firm's trading capital. I'm not sure if Bright even does this, but many prop firms do.

LMFAO!! How perceptive! :D

I disagree. If you're not able to make consistent money in today's market, then your mechanics of trading are too general and not applicable. Butch Harmon may be able to swing a club and critique someone else's stroke, but he can't play 18 holes worth a damn. A consistent trading strategy is...

This is only partly true. A good trainer can shave off months (or possibly years) off of your learning curve. In the long run, experience is the best teacher but people with good training have a much better head start. The good trainers are the ones that actively trade, are consistently...

I applied for a waiter job at Hooter's and got turned down! Should I sue for discrimination?

Hmm...not quite arbitrage. Seems like a straight forward auction. Do they sell them in 1 ounce lots?:D

Wrong auction! This is it... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1788349972 12 million kachingos and counting!

According to Ebay, the current high bid is a little over $11,000,000. It was recently appraised at $90,000. I heard that Eminem's uncle, who sold the house for $45,000 three weeks ago, has committed himself to an institution.

What's wrong with all of these conservative Muslims? They cause far more harm than good because of their twisted view of life.

The few market makers I've met have not successfully made the switch to prop trading. The institutional trading style is very different and these market maker refugees have not made the adjustment. I guess they weren't good market makers to begin with, that's why they were laid off.

Depends on your trading style. Are you a part-time trader with a full time job? If yes, you will probably be more of a swing or position trader, so lightning fast quotes and executions are not that important. A retail account like Datek will suit you fine. On the other hand, are you a...

Are these equity prop trading firms? Never heard of 'em.

I'm not a fan of this narcissistic, voluminous poster of nonsense.

Trading is about having a system and sticking to it. I thought there weren't any consistently profitable traders in this market, but I was proven wrong. They most definitely exist and are kicking ass!
