http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/financetopics/financialcrisis/8081594/Bankers-caused-credit-crisis-for-kicks.html I'm interested in reading this paper "Blood on the Trading Floor" Where can I download it? Has anyone got a link to it?

Impossible to have any confidence in a Dodds-Frank law -what a despicable and odious couple of characters they are. Legislation, if there is any, will only favour the big boys. I really hope they don't try and make some new laws because it will only make life harder for independent traders.

Bob Pisani is a half witted clown. Possibly the most annoying of the lot on the Satan's little helper's channel at the moment. Morally this channel is on the same ground as Nazi prison guards.

Interesting action Vs. bunds. The big boys are buying bonds against selling bunds it seems. Or is the bund leading like it has done all year?

Not in this world it won't.

I agree with Visara. & it follows that if you get your house in order you will be more able to help your neighbours out in the future. If you choose to. A compromise could be to buy the limos directly from Mercedes, negotiate discounts and hand them over, rather than cash, to the third...

I forget. Is Geithner one of those shape shifting alien lizards, or a mere human that the Bilderburgers will eat once he has achieved their objectives?

Geithner's job seems to be slagging off China too. It is an infantile policy. The only effect it could possibly have is to annoy China, and then what? These hollow voices are just an attempt to distract from the depression that is upon America, and put the blame on someone else. It's...

Anyone who enters an order in the market is fair game. That's how I thought it worked. The exchanges blatantly favour the HFTs when they should be looking after all the different market participants and worrying about the integrity of the market as a whole. I wonder if this is a test case or...

Mike, I only know about IT as it pertains to the trading industry. As far as the wider world goes, I can be of little use to you. Surely you can find some other sector with a real demand that is not in a bubble and which can provide a more secure future. Best of luck in whatever you choose to do.

Hello piezoe -I don't get the inflation argument. I can see that it is down the road but I'm not sure how far. I know that my energy bills have gone up, and so have my taxes, but apart from that I cannot see another single thing that costs more. I pay half the price I did for food two years...

No use to the OP, but the few turtles disciples that I came across, and admittedly they were few, they were all into self help. The likes of Satan's helper, Tony "the cunt" Robbins et al. & the NLP garbage. Was it because these people were shit traders looking for excuses as to why they were...

Mike, There will always be a place for black boxes and HFTs in the market but currently it is overdone. It' s a fad. Someone told me I should be getting into it in 2001. Wish I had listened. It's too late. The arms race is in it's final phase and the game is virtually over. My advice is to...

QE2? Shouldn't we already be talking about QE3?

I was absolutely dismayed to hear Senator Kaufman say that the HFTs add liquidity. The cunt obviously doesn't have a clue. & if he is supposed to be fighting for our side, then it's time to bring the white flags out. I would love to be proved wrong, but I can't see for the life of me why...

If it was on a bigger scale would it be as bad as America? I very much doubt it. The OP may have a genuine interest in this topic but I am sick of all the Euro bashing that comes from Washington these days. Barry tells us how shit everything looks in Europe hoping that no-one notices that...

That was the worst written piece of shit article that I have read in a long while. I read on and on thinking that at some point it would get better. Thank you for wasting my time. I feel like I know less for reading it. I'll grade it F for fail. Author must try harder, and widen his reading...

I would have found it laughable a few years back but now I'm not sure whether they are a better bet than US treasuries.

I like the charts on CTS, but the trading front end really isn't for professionals. Scores low in every characteristic that you mention. I really can't imagine that it would be any good for automated trading. Having said that, I don't think that TT and CQG can justify the cost differential...

It's a wet dream for the legal profession. Write a good law -make money. Write a bad law -double your money.
