First, lets compare apples to apples here. You have completely taken it out of context. We are talking about $10 and a cup of coffee to the homeless, vs the starving in a third world country. Second, the truth is that the money rarely gets there. You are likely funding a militant leader...

Just a thought, these crooked companies, firms, specialists, should have to pay for policing....why does the public pay for it?

Doug Kass....is a permabear. No worries, he gets 1 call in 3 right. Do you actually pay for the content on the street insight?

What's the matter, risk arb discovered your full of shit, now your pissed at me?

You can't get anything past these cats on ET....nice catch riskarb! LOL :D

Everyone on here is so damn nit picky. If you don't pay the fixed fee every month then It is technically free. Now if a trader is too stupid to figure out that there is no "free" lunch and doesn't realize that someone else is absorbing that fee and in exchange for taking that risk is going...

In some areas of the world, $250 month is a good salary...think outside the box guys!

We don't need more troops.....you let them do the job they need to do....if you're going to fight a war then you fight to win!

you want to give back to others....then don't give them money. That's a cop out...it makes you feel like your doing something, but the reality is giving out money doesn't do much good. If you really want to help, give some of your time, and focus on getting some results.

Bershire Hathoway and SHLD

I bought damn near the low on both of those stocks. AMR and ACF, made about a 1.00 on each on 10 or 20k shares in a day or two. I was patting myself on the back for making a great trade, little did I know I would be kicking myself in the ass for that. Nice trades!

No....but still pretty damn good! If it's true.... Don't really know who to believe on here anymore.

I really enjoyed his stock market wizards book. Lot's of insight into what stock guys do to make money, and the interview with Cohen provided some good insight into his world. I think he should continue to interview good traders. PTJ would be one. No PROP traders, i don't want our...

Analytical tools are not the answer. A bloomberg may be an edge, but other than that every trader has access to analytical tools. Bp is an edge. Allows a user to go after ST opportunities and capitalize on them. Execution tools are another key. Automated execution tools are the edge of...

Prop traders fail no more then any other business venture. It's not because of a lack of capital, or because they aren't on the inside track, or because they don't have good training. They fail because they don't put in the time and effort it takes to master the business of trading. If you...

Tradestation is limited in what it can do with pairs. You can plot both symbols on the chart and create an indicator which is the spread between the two. They have an included indicator spread difference and one for ratio. If you want to beable to create a custom spread, say .7 wmt to 1 fd...

A montecarlo analysis will help with that. You can get an idea of what the expected drawdown will be and if you actual drawdown is greater then would be expected, your system has stopped working.

Guys who can take shots with OPM, often can't take shots with their own money on the line. It's a whole different psychology when you are down on your own trades and faced with the decision to cut the loss or double down. As for the interest discussion, some on here would be happy to have...

Nice work....keep on track and on plan. In response to the advice on getting your health back and losing weight, you are doing fine. Cutting calories will allow you to lose quite a bit of weight. At some point, you will reach a plateau and that will no longer work, so you have got to add...

I trade both range bound and trend systems and have long held the belief that you first identify the type of market you are in and then apply the correct strategy to that market. That is you trade the strategy that is likely to produce the results you are after. Your approach is an...
