How to trade like a hedge fund....by james altucher

You call yourself a libertarian. I think you mean Librarian. :confused:

In my opinion, this is a simple supply and demand issue. On one hand, you have the AMA and other such groups limiting the supply of Doctors. Then you have 3rd party payer plans offered by a good number of employers. Those that have the plan pay their $15 copay when they see the Doctor...

You lost me right after this statement. You can't be serious. fan27

Get some data and test. fan27

Why don't you just get a cash advance at 3.99% from some credit cards? Take advantage of the cheap money. fan27

I have 6 Automated EOD ES/NQ systems that back test well and have performed well in my account since Oct 2004 (up about 30 %). I sell them to you. Make me an offer. I'll include the software i wrote (need IB). fan27

LOL. That is too funny.

I am shocked :eek:

All I know is that...... Cramer is going to make me rich. Can't wait until 6:00 pm. My fingers will be on the keyboard ready to be the first to buy his recommendations. Why do your own homework when you have Cramer on your side? fan27

Build your own. It really isn't that hard if you are already comfortable with programing strategies using off the shelf products. If you can get your hands on Visual Studio (For VB6) I would be willing to give you some VB code you can use as a starting point. fan27

finally, a show willing to tell it like it is. :D

What was the point of Erin Driscoll's Crazy daughter who killed herself? I missed a couple of episodes in the beginning of the season. Did I miss something regarding the crazy daughter and her relevance to the show or was it just a stupid side show as I suspect? Other than that, I enjoy 24...

The way I look at it, Money Management is used to Maximize an edge and make sure you don't blow up, however it is not an edge by itself. fan27

Sounds like a great idea to me. Volatility BO systems worked well a few years ago and quit working. I'll come up with a nice curve system and we can try to find the best method for deactivating it. fan27

There is this trader on ET, his handle is oktiri. From what I've heard, he is an expert at developing edge based automated day trading systems. You might want to send him a PM regarding your request. good luck fan27

Based on what I read on the IRS website, your estimated tax is based on the lesser of: Last years income or This years expected income. I didn't make squat last year so I should be good to go until next year. fan27

This is exactly what I have begun to do. Since none of my systems have more than 100 trades, I assume that my systems are curve fit and will at some point fail. I wrote a program that will randomly select 20 trades (could be more or less) from my entire sample and create the performance stats...

In case there is any confusion on what I meant by slippage earlier, the 1 tic average slippage per trade I was referring to was the difference between the price I enter at 16:14:55 and the settlement price. fan27

I have several EOD ATS for ES and NQ. My program checks for signals at 16:14:53 and enters trades at 16:14:55. I always double check to make sure I didn't miss a signal or enter a trade I shouldn't have once the settlement price is posted. so far I average about 1 tic slippage per trade...
