This heavily depends on the office environment. The wrong environment can wreck havoc on a trader. They might as well be trading at home. Where as the right office environment is a real gem. Questions to ask /look for in the office. #1 Are they providing high end equipment ? --not...

Don hope you have a speedy recovery. In fact I started this thread just for you http://elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?threadid=4904 :D see. Look how many members think you will be back to normal within 24 hrs. On Openings Futures were down -18 points in the open. I...

LOL Tom you shouldn't ignore yourself. I'm acknowledging your post Robert

This is a key line here. Specialist will push a stock.... think about that rule again on the NYSE. The Specialist can't buy on an uptick or sell on a downtick. Meaning he move the stock himself --all he can do is be looser on his bids/offers trying to encourage others to...

This is an ignore poster button. Robert

Hey there are enough posters who police the site as it is. I'm a competitor of Bright and Liber and Weissman and try to keep them on their toes. Glad to not hear my name mentioned above. Means I'm not ticking off too many people. :D I just try to answer questions about ECHO, my...

I imagine that more mergers of this sort are sure to come. Robert Tharp

Corey I did answer him but through a private message because this is getting off topic. The thread was about Level 2 and what others offices are like. Not questions about Echo. Thnks though for making sure I don't miss questions. Robert

News is one of my favorite types of plays. There are some conditions though before it can be easily done. Trade with the specialist. Also remember the NYSE rule. The Specialist can never buy on an uptick or sell on a downtick. He must always be going against order flow. Robert Tharp

Yeah my office golf is improving as the other traders in the office will tell you. Robert

yep. if you trade for a company you become "pro" to the exchange in their mind. Robert

Hey does anybody else notice how quiet the threads are since Don is away?

April 24, 2000 TO: ALL MEMBERS AND MEMBER ORGANIZATIONS SUBJECT: RULE 127 Rule 127 requires a member seeking to cross block orders outside the prevailing quotation to inform the specialist of his or her intention to execute the transaction at a pre-determined, specific price...

First . Order the NYSE rulebook as it will provide how the market truely works for the NYSE. As Vinny mentioned Echo gives seminar's on some of our trading styles--I'm one of the presenters. Run some searches on this site for NYSE, Specialist, NASDAQ vs NY and such as there have been...

Well due to being the past manager/co- manger of Phoenix they know some of them in fact some of them were taught to me by guys in Phoenix. But others offices NO. We might share some ideas here and there but if the entire firm traded the exact same system it wouldn't work as well...

Today I did a HUGE NO NO and it worked in my favor --it could have easily been the opposite. Need to get more sleep next time. I forgot to update my spreadsheet's prices from previous day. I know a guy who had a problem with using Redi and it didn't update prices once. He ended up...
