    Managing Funds for a Living

    <b>He</b> didn't decide that- This axiom has been common knowledge among industry professionals, ever since options were invented in the 1970's! You're selling bus tickets from Chicago to NY with an unnecessary detour through Texas, without you or your passengers realizing that a direct route...

    ...and if you were doing a survey on Olde English, Mad Dog 20/20 and dirty fermented bath water with a fresh lemon wedge... I'd turn the subject to <b>types of beer I'd actually want to drink!</b>

    ECHOTrade

    I was given 30-1/5-1 right off the bat, without having to negotiate. Maybe the 10-1/2-1 is a false rumor, or it only applies to a small handful of specific traders with unconventional deals? I've been with Echo for four years, and this is the first I've ever heard of any Echo traders being...

    Is China crashing?

    China down 8.26%, ES only down 275. At times like these, I wish I'd have kept a futures account open. (I have equities & options accounts but no futures). ES will certainly be down over 500 before the open.

    Violent Crime Blazing Back in America

    Might have something to do with the fact that U.S. police forces care more about enforcing drug prohibition and other 'victimless crime' laws, than fighting <b>real</b> crime (the kind that has actual victims).

    is there a new ecn?

    Is there a new ECN? The answer is ALWAYS yes. ECN's are like TV shows- A new one comes along every few months, and most die a quick & quiet death for lack of public interest.

    My Experience at a Prop Firm

    Mom0, I have no incentive to defend Mav, other than to set the record straight. I contacted him last year, explained my trading habits and needs, and was offered a commission rate on standard equity options that is <b>slightly better than any other deal I've ever been offered, anywhere.</b>...

    Mexicans Show Class--Boo Miss USA

    You didn't answer my question, but I'll answer yours anyways. My ideas for securing the border would cost a lot more than yours, but at least mine are ethical, and no one gets murdered: Set up a double-fence system across the entire length of the U.S.-Mexico border. One fence is placed right...

    Mexicans Show Class--Boo Miss USA

    Would you have the stomach to personally pump unarmed migrant families full of lead as they try to cross the border? I didn't think so. This nation's borders can be secured just fine, without us resorting to murder.

    My Experience at a Prop Firm
