I am quite sure he only used this account for hedging...LOL

Right expression is "Mystère et boule de gomme"

I am sure waiting for a passive hypothetical 10-20% increase of the stock market while paying interests was at the top of their list.

To me, injured times are the best times to work and trade since you can't do anything else...

...money you borrowed... That's one of the most stupid things I heard on a forum...

" I am not here to make money, I'm here to make history"...LOL He talks weird... Is he a drug addict on top of private flight addict?

OK... So I guess it was really stupid.

Oh well, perhaps this has a bit to do with one of my "friend", institutional trader, calling me yesterday after calculating his bonus for the first half year of 2009....LOL... And I know he lost BIG last year.

Hello, After reading several threads about trading desks recent profitability and expected record bonuses, I just realized that finance really have short memory and the way compensation works in institutions is beginning to bother me... I am not envious but is this normal that...

Those are not habanos it seems. Is there still an embargo on cuban cigars in the US?

Wow... really good post Rubibond. And by the way, Jprad, forget what you saw/heard about commodity prices in the last year, have you got something to say about the current prices of oil, corn, wheat? It is just about the same price as before the evil speculators "came in" and manipulated the...

I read somewhere that the number of deaths from tobacco is like 20 times bigger than those from alcohol( simply because lungs are a lot more "fragile" than liver ). You can take any cause of death in the world but heart attacks( alcohol, car accidents, any natural disaster, hunger, AIDS... )...

I don't why, but this really made me laugh...:p

Simply investing is not enough to become a winner, you have to borrow money to invest like yourself to be a real winner.

You can't be taken seriously with such a name.

Hello Lolatency, Nice Journal.... I have been a TS customer for 4 years( not anymore ) so a few warning about TS Datas: - If you trade futures, Implied prices sizes on DOM and prints in T§S are missing. Depending on the market, it can be half the prints... -bid/ask datas( important...
