Notice where he does ALL of his posting. It helps ET generate web-activity. Why else would ET have such a forum if it was really meant for traders???

Funny how you didn't seem to have a problem when GEORGE BUSH "loaned" $17.4 BILLION to GM and Chrysler (with no strings attached) as recently as last December even though they were going BK anyway. And yet you can't keep from pissing all over yourself in your absurdly twisted "logic" when...

I guess you weren't around last December when Bush "loaned" GM and Chrysler $17.4 billion with no strings, even though they wound-up going BK anyway . . . And you're having a problem with this program at ONE billion? Please.

Bush "loaned" GM and Chrysler $17.4 BILLION last December in order to get them into the Spring of this year without having to declare BK; which as we all know they wound up doing anyway. He gave them 3-months to restructure and said that allowing the Big Three to fail, "is not a responsible...

Given who represented the GOP during the last Presidential election, I would hardly say that 2012 is the "lock" that you claim. The GOP got their asses kicked in the midterm elections of 2006 and they've had a horrible time recovering ever since. In case you're memory has deserted you, it...

Wrong again my friend. What's pathetic is that many people here on ET don't have a basic fundamental understanding of how legislation creates these types of programs. The government cannot fund this program immediately as you claim. Perhaps you could use a civics class in how the federal...

Faber was interviewed earlier this week and "hedged" his Doom & Gloom scenario and now implies that there will most likely be yet another "bubble" in equities before any kind of day of reckoning. I'll see if I can dig up the video later today. 1998, 2002, 2008, wash, rinse, dry, repeat. :D

Once again, the reading comprehension on ET pales in comparison to kids in my daughter's 5th grade class. There is such a backlog of deals that auto dealers "may already have surpassed the 250,000 vehicles bunded by the $1 billion program." And last time I checked, the word suspend does...

I don't know why you are all that surprised by his comments . . . It is an incredibly LOW MARGIN game in which GS is not the only player in town. Just ask Citadel. :D

It's not just Goldman Sachs, but a whole host of other sell-side firms not too mention hedgies ( and buy-side guys ) like Citadel.

DTN IQFeed version 4.6 is now out. Several new enhancements have been added to improve both CPU and bandwidth utilization. Early adopters have reported a decrease in Internet bandwidth by as much as 60 percent. CPU utilization has also decreased—by an average of 10 percent, with even...

You do not necessarily trade in the opposite direction of the TRIN, unless you want to fight the trend. Just not a good idea.

Interesting paper on Algorithmic trading strategies: http://www.algotradingpodcast.com/files/Algorithmic%20Trading%20-%20Executive%20Summary.pdf

Mup, I've noticed that several Elliott Wave blogs have a Wave (i) up into yesterday's close ( and not the "E" as you have ) thus giving rise to a Wave (iii) off the opening and then a smale Wave (iv) and (v) into around 10:30AM when the SPX made its high. Not sure if that is correct or not.

No.

And those margins are incredibly small. Being an "SLP" ( sole liquidity provider ) isn't the greatest game in town. With an increase in market participants, spreads have tightened and traditional market making sources of revenue have declined for the sell-side. Even hedge-funds and other...

You misspelled the word: probably. It must be really difficult for ET to "hire" good prop posters these days . . . You're lucky that spelling isn't one of the requirements for employment at ET.

For some reason, you fail to mention that BOTH the "Cap & Trade" legislation as well as the "Health Care" bill that is making its way through Congress have been totally "gutted". In case you didn't know, the Federal Govt. is giving away 85% of the carbon credits in the legislation that came...

Yeah, I forgot that you wouldn't know how to PROFITABLY trade a 1300 point rally in the Dow Jones over the course of 5 months. My mistake, for thinking that you actually know how to TRADE.

You need to understand that there are two categories of program trading . . . one that a broker does in executing trades for a mutual fund or customer which are called "Agency" trades, and the other in which the trades are done as a "Principal". Most of your program trading investment banks...
