Actually, there are many nuggets here. Back when tapereading NYSE actually worked very well, there was an amazing post made by a member which contained 10x more knowledge than all of the "training" programs by the prop firms. All his prop firm will teach him to do is generate commissions and...

That's a losing churn & burn strategy. Level 2 trading is played out big time. The fact is that the prop firm wants you to generate commissions, hence having you scalp Level 2 is beneficial to them. It's very unlikely you will ever start making true profits, hence why not make the most out...

Ok you have been posting this for months. What's your point? You can just look up the founding of SEC and it's beginnings. It was never found to help the public or the investor. So enough crying.

Yet voting for McCain or Obama is considered sane. Funny!

No, just so stupid that calling you retarded would be an insult to the unfortunate who are born with Down Syndrome.

I love how you call others morons while showing how retarded you are. Ethics course? This is Wall Street, you imbecile, there is no room for ethics. This is capitalism (kinda), where ethics cost money & never bring profits. You don't like the system, don't deal with it. Instead, like the...

Once again you prove you are a moron. Whoever caused that story to be run was already short, most likely had a bunch of puts, and from last week if not from before. Clueless.

Oh really? Then why make this post? http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=135829&perpage=20&pagenumber=2 "I was down half a mill before I knew what hit me. that was what, eight years ago? It got me serious about this. I'll get it back ten fold, and I'll see these...

I personally think it's flytiger's mom's fault. Every time she emerges from her house and shows her face, bad things happen. Think I'm gonna write a letter to the SEC about that.

LOL you're being led around by the nose like a hoodwinked sheeple. [B] GermanTrader may be dumb, but you are just clueless.

You are the idiot who is crying to the regulators about everything, then you cry that they are taking measures which end up screwing you anyway. Yet idiots like you are partly to blame that this happens. You did not say anything besides "Waaah Waaah Waaah, naked shorters, waahh" Is it the...

What? So it's the regulators' fault that Lehman has such a toxic balance sheet? Don't worry, soon you can stop crying about your vagina hurting. This will become a centralized economy with regulators controlling every facet of it.

LOL what? Wow you are STUPID!

When has a politician ever put the country & its people first instead of last? LOL!

You're far from the only one. But certain people are so damn stupid, they just don't get the hint. No trades should be broken. Go sue the newspaper. Pretty obvious what happened here.

Does not sound like you want to make the switch to buy-side, why bother entertaining it? If you actually wanted to make the switch, you would take the same salary, since a) growth and b) bonuses are much larger. It just comes down to what YOU want. Is it purely compensation motivated or do...

Then ask for whatever you make now plus maybe 5%. This is not something you would need advice on, it's basic common sense. What does it matter what a trader at a start up makes if it's not in the territory of what you earn now? Did they hunt you down out of the blue? I bet not, your...

What are you, his nanny? Or do you just fancy him?

I fail to see why you think you're so special that you deserve 150k/year for a position that can be filled by hundreds, if not thousands potential candidates. If I was the PM, I would not pay over 6 figs salary for the position, considering that it is a start-up fund and the current job...

LOL that's what I said within months of working there It was a she, a crazy skitzo b*tch who can look in ur face smile and be super friendly, then turn around and fire you. She just met certain statistics to qualify her bonus. Every head has a certain cost associated to it, so as long as...
