    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    Any Prop Blew Up on May 6th?

    Are you a professional? How long have you been living off trading? In any case, don't do anything stupid. Fortunes are made, lost, remade...Even if it's a major downturn, there will be some time in the future we will look back and it will be anecdotal, I hope you will even have a little smile.:)

    Reuters names e-mini S&P ‘flash crash’ seller

    Reuters names e-mini S&P ‘flash crash’ seller

    It's a mutual fund. They are not known to use advanced market impact algos to enter the market( LOL). With the tension that was already in the market, 75000 lots traded stupidly may sure have triggered the meltdown.

    Reuters names e-mini S&P ‘flash crash’ seller

    Yes, we need a transaction tax on any trades that lasts more than one day. :D So much for Bogle, Buffett and all the FTT supporters. YOU are the danger sitting on you fat ass collecting dividends, waiting for the market to rise indefinitely and all going out out at the same time/hedging in...

    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    Yes, it is...again. A "bank tax " is a "tax on financial transactions" in thejournalist mind.

    Pissed

When you say "Corn", it's not just one instrument, but 20 liquid expiries( which behaves quite like correlated stocks within...

    Goldman Sachs Has First Perfect Quarter With Zero Trading Loss

    They are just incredibly good...They had numerous quarters with just 1 to 5 down days before, and other banks/institutions as well. That's what you get when you exploit hundreds of strategies with high sharpe ratio / profit factor across a wide range of assets. However, if you prefer to...

    Sound File from the pit in yesterday's breakdown

    Do you really believe any administration in the world is capable of such a coordinated action on something that happened in 10 minutes? Where I live, they take 3 months to deliver a passport and 1 1/2 years to repare the road in front of my house...LOL
