    the surf report--part 2

    Just curious as to what you think a good year is for your system based upon whatever yard stick you use to measure results? Some may use net $, others may look at % return, etc. Congrats on a good year! Mike

    T1 line - How Much?

    The performance of cable varies greatly depending upon the number of users on the circuit. I found that early am were no problems, but right about the time people started waking up I would notice some delays in the system.

    Schonfeld Vs. Carlin

    Of all the firms I have dealt with in the past, ETG was the best by far. Blethyn and their entire management were great guys and were easy to deal with. It's a shame they were sold, I really felt that they could have given some of the other firms a pretty good run for their money. As for...

    Trader P/L 2005

    Many ET'rs are just like crabs in a bucket....when one guy starts to break away and climb out, they reach up and pull him right back down. I don't blame you for not posting. I don't need the negative feedback in my life, and I truely believe that a great attitude and state of mind leads to...

    the surf report--part 2

    What pain has market surfer inflicted on ETr's? As far as I can tell, he is simply posting his trades, and once in a while he hangs onto a loser. I find nothing wrong with choosing to overide your system and manage the position. Many traders do it, especially those that are well capitalized...

    the surf report--part 2

    Charlie, A savvy trader would take the information and turn it to his advantage. Have you considered that market surfer might be the ultimate market sentiment indicator. That perhaps the best trade might be to fade his positions? Especially when he starts talking about unfavorable...

    Looking for a lawyer

    What did he promise you....exactly. What did he deliver to you? Are you sure his stuff is completely worthless? Share the details and perhaps a few of us who trade the emini ca shed some light on whether or not it's a viable trading strategy. There are two sides to this coin though. Were...

    Pro's Thread... $1,00,000 Profit Minimum

    I am typically a market neutral trader. I started in RiskArb, then switched to pairs. Over the past 18 months, I have changed my strategy to be a multimarket, multi-strategy, multi-timeframe trader. It will be impossible to post my short term and most intraday trades, but I will share my short...

    Pro's Thread... $1,00,000 Profit Minimum

    % is not king, good traders can easily earn several hundred percent on a 50 or 100k trading account over the course of a year. Doing that on millions is far more difficult. On another note, I hear samson is doing well, and will be joining this club shortly. As for me, I am happy to join...

    The New US Bankruptcy Law

    Most families have some credit card debt, but I think most families are two income earners as well. I think they will be able to handle the debt load and manage their payments. The house still provides a very valuable tax deduction, and those that have chosen to take the interest only option...

    The New US Bankruptcy Law

    I am not a fan of the new BK laws...on the other hand people need to take responsibility for their actions and their debts. The loop hole that was closed with the new BK law will affect high salary earners and hold them accountable more so than the average earner.
