Tape reading. Think of it out of context. If you are in a hotel and see a couple walking towards the pool in their swimming suits they are probably going to the pool. Someone who is wearing a tux is probably going to the wedding in the main ballroom. Tape reading is sort of the...

Turok On the La Jolla office not sure for now. They opened an office in Mission Valley. I moved to Phoenix, AZ and am no Co-manager here. Eventually I'll move back to San Diego and probably open an office in North County (northern area of San Diego).

Don tried numerous times to get off topic and talk about trading strategies. I'd like to personally invite him to post some here on this thread if he wishes to. Please do not get in arguments about different Professional firms on this thread. Thank You. Robert Tharp

It depends ... on the trader, their trading style, their timeframe, their system. I would agree that for quite a few traders a professional setup isn't necessary. I've been trading a system that produces extremely high returns since I moved to the Phoenix office It wouldn't be...

A quote has been said by many professionals," Once they trade as a Professional way they would never go back to retail." I would agree... Robert Tharp

sort of. to answer your question uptiki about going into software business I have been testing on quite a few trading platforms in the last few days. Some have some features I love while missing some I like. I found a few programs I love but if I were to go back to the programmers I...

I edited my original post adding word software I'll start with some examples. Direct access level 2 trading to all options. News on all stocks with dividend dates/float analysis. It was a topic in the trading office here earlier. We have been testing quite a few here...

If you were building the ultimate software trading platform --- cost is no factor what would you have included inside?? Direct access of course. What type of features can you dream of??? Robert Tharp

Nic I trade 99% NYSE. I'm doing something different now as I've learned a better system. But my old system was VERY similar to Pretorian2 and Tony OZ's overbought/oversold systems. I'd pick tops and bottoms for stocks. If a stock had gone down 14 days in a row with volatility...

As the moderator of this forum I'll make a suggestion. What would be a lot more useful for readers is if you posted good/bad about firms with specific examples. This makes for very clear reading compared to a general statement that all firms suck. It makes for a stronger read to say...

Funny how you posted this but I see very few complaining. WorldCO and other firms (proprietary not professional) actually front you the start up capital so it isn't the worst deal as you are making it seem. rtharp

They are definitely tradeable intraday. You are going to need very cheap commissions, and will have to get a broker who can do great executions. Why didn't I take some of the trading offers on the floor. Well for one I hated the cold weather. It's ok to visit but I like San Diego, or...

Bullets are done automatically at a seperate firm for my firm and from what I have heard WorldCO and other professional firms. THey deal with the spread and illiquidity of the options. Yes they allow shorting on a downtick. Run a search on them here for more info. Hitman I...

I know Bright doesn't offer 1 million at starting unless you can prove you have a lot of expereince. Once you have been trading for awhile they don't monitor you as much. Echo offers different margin levels for different levels of experience and it would also depend on how much you open an...

I was in the option pit for about 6 months. I was only a clerk though. I was offered quite a few trading positions though. rtharp
