I remember it to be just the opposite. Granted neither test was very hard and it's been a long time since I took them but I seem to remember many more bullshit Rules & Reg questions on the 7. The 3 was light on the rules but heavy on spread and basis questions. For some real fun take the...

.... I couldn't hangout at the methadone clinic anymore and NASA wasn't hiring so this seemed like a logical choice.

Interesting, I guess they'd had enough embarrassment of not knowing what certain orders were.:) Thanks Fellas

Are you saying that gr8trade now has this capabilty? Or is this another platform from INCA? I had heard quite awhile ago that they were going to try to upgrade their Research/Analytics platform.

For that to happen 1) Instinet would have had to have done major work on Protrader's front end. The last time I saw gr8trade (about six months ago) it still had next to no NYSE order entry features/options ( e.g. MOC orders, OO orders, NX-direct, pre-market indications and so on). When I...

A 3 month zero is simply a 90 day T-Bill. I don't know IB but I would imagine you could buy a T-Bill through IB. FYI: typically true zero-coupon bonds range in maturity from 8 to 20 years. There are a few outside of this range but not many. Regards, Dr. Zhivodka

Honda? You gotta be kidding me. I haven't driven a rice burner since the early '80's. But I did just take delivery of a X5. Any time. Next time you are on the West Coast come by the office and say hi to the boyz and me. I run a Hedge Fund in Santa Barbara. We're on State Street...

as ye sow....so shawl ye reap.... I was addressing a member of trading flock who felt compelled to give a sermon and preach yea even before he was baptized. What he didn't realized is that there were many grizzled Veterans of Foreign Wars in the audience who may have a tendency to be...

No junior, what separates you from some here is that some of us have spent YEARS learning and honing our craft to a fine edge before we even uttered the first word about our own trading. And I'm not talking about some three year NASDAQ love-fest. Some of us have been in the markets for...

send it to the goverenment in taxes.

Sorry Alf, But here's my prediction: you are going to talk about trading to such an extent that you'll never master it. You seem to be a voyeur extraordinaire. This type of personality can be a severe detriment to your desired craft. But that's cool if that's your thing. Many...

super-ego, I apologize. I didn't fully read your post. No one could possibly be as dumb as one would have to be to believe and post what you wrote above. I just missed the sarcasm the first time. Hilarious.... That's quality comedy!! :) :) Again, my apologies...

This is a sure sign of a superior intellect right here. All Bow Down. Impressed, Dr. Zhivodka

PM me. We're always looking for quality talent. Be prepared to play show and tell.

Impossible It's a simple issue; Bright can't come down too far on their rates because they still bend over for FOC/GS clearing services. Even though, Eddie Franco still has a very significant back door to FOC/SLK and by extension GS, at some point their ability to remain competitive is...

smokey, I understood your plea the first time. But you're are going about it the wrong way. Believe me Bob doesn't give a F*** about your problem and Don is much too obtuse to even see the problem. My question wasn't aimed at you per se although it may have seemed like it. My...

Simple. Because today was a layup. It was a very easy day. Many people made easy money on an easy day and now they feel froggy and ready to jump. Nothing new it's just the same 'ol same 'ol - Fear, Greed and Ego. But the real question is how does a professional trader use this...

Wow, you just put me in my place. You sure are cute when you're angry. Hiccup, Dr. Zhivodka

Examine your assumptions. That's a bullshit premise. It depends on how measure profitability and on what time frame you do so, among a myriad of other factors. Take Gekko from example, he says that he was profitable from 98-99 but he sucks eggs now. Where does that fall into your 90-95%...

You shouldn't pay anymore than 4.30 RT for e-mini's. That's with an electronic platform thrown in. Call Refco or Man, tell'um Dr.Zhivodka sent ya.
