Is there sound on this video? I think I saw this one before. Charlie was a legendary bond trader and I highly reccomened his book.

Shan and I have been talking about this topic every day. He was quite surprised to hear my feelings on this issue as he said it contradicted what he has always been told in many popular books. My views on this subject come from actual experience trading at one of the most notorious daytrading...

ES bounced off the QTR A down for now. Let's see if 1350 holds. QTR levels are usually great correction levels.

Both AAPL and PCLN hit these QTR targets. PCLN topped at 775 with the QTR A up at 779 and AAPL at 644 with the QTR A up at 652. PCLN came in 50 pts after the QTR failure.

I take it this is not your day job? Because if you trade for a living, you cannot survive by simply beating the s&p 500. Those guys that you mention that under perform the s&p 500 have one thing you don't have, a management fee. If this is not your day job then fine, I guess whatever...

We finally got a book cover. Fascinating insights into the hedge fund traders who consistently outperform the markets, in their own words From bestselling author, investment expert, and Wall Street theoretician Jack Schwager comes a behind-the-scenes look at the world of hedge funds...

I didn't really intend on this thread being a strategy discussion thread but I'll extend you the courtesy and try to answer your questions. The ETF's I trade are very liquid with penny wide spreads. They are more liquid then most futures contracts. The trades are quantitatively based. They...

There is more alpha when you break down an index or sector and focus on the more narrow parts. If you are trading "relationships" you want to be as narrow as possible. It's very hard to zero in on "broad" relationships with any kind of edge.

Not sure if you noticed, but Don has posted on this thread and I assure you, Don reads EVERYTHING on here and he is free to post anytime he wants. And I'm sure Don loves the exposure he is getting. I posted here as a favor to him since I gave the guy a lot of shit for years. Although I...

Those numbers were for intra-day. Overnights will be smaller. But those are much more selective. And they will be held for weeks at a time.

Ballpark 10k to 20k shares. Hopefully by the end of the summer 20k plus.

Once again the number lines were ahead of the indices in terms of showing the underlying weakness in the market.

ES and Russel tagged the QTR A down today. Pretty critical level here in the indices.

It really depends on how you trade. I trade larger size blocks so my share pricing is going to be between 25 and 30 bps. That's about the same as Echo per their advertisement. I agree though, for a "small" trader who trades less then 1k shares per clip, Echo probably has marginally better...

No problem. If you read over the thread you will see that I actually complimented Echo and said both firms are in the same class and have comparable deals. Someone asked about 80% and 90% payouts and I was responding to their posts that Bright has a higher payout. I was not directing that...

Watch this LVS as well. Also breaking out to 52 week highs. Confirmed weekly A up and right above the monthly looking to confirm tomorrow. Watch out for the QTR at 62 right over head.

Dislocations Quon, dislocations! As I have stated before, this market could head lower with stocks like AAPL and PCLN going higher. So the broad markets do look weak but there are some sectors showing some solid strength.

Just wanted to point out some strong number lines. On the monthly: XLY +8 XRT +6 And TBT +5 with Bonds approaching key resistance levels on the weekly, monthly and QTR. XLY is being led by strength in MCD, NKE and HD. And XRT is being led by PCLN making new all time highs.
