unfortunately, top boxers aren't the best fighters in the world. you want to know who would destroy the "Hayemaker"? it' won't be close at any point in the fight... THIS guy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dkZkgcwn42I

if they can't afford 250/mo then you don't want them anyways...they'll be more trouble than anything. good luck to you...

you're undoubtedly someone who works a high frequency book or are in that arena, which can only explain your decisive angle. it's quite clear when you read things as such that there is a clear defense of the realm you're working in.... same defense from off the floor traders towards floor...

something is seriously wrong w/you people. my post is not about leaving the business ... it is about the manual prop trading business as a whole. i don't need to work anymore though i still enjoy it. the post is made to get feedback on the present situation. everyone seems to just have a pole...

also fyi, the SEC has been hiring quant fellows that can help detect abusive quantitative practices in the markets. there's obviously some crazy, crooked stuff going on in the hf, algo/quant world. just as electronic trading went off the floor in the mid to late 90's and there were lots of...

fyi, i've been in the business since 1994. trying to get different takes on the environment since the end of 08.

For a couple of years now (since the end of 2008), it seems and feels like there is no edge anywhere. Seems to have become a lot more random. Computer driven models, quants, algorithmic systems, high frequency etc are now apparently 80% of all the volume. Things don't correlate anymore on a...

what are the solid ones in the Miami area? how's broad street and assent? and do they ask for capital contribution? thx

anyone know of a REAL prop firm (similar to 1st ny, drw, etc) in the DC, Maryland, N. VA area? by REAL i mean a place that doesn't freak out if you lose 50k in a day and allows you to trade decent capital? traded for over a decade and may have to move to the area for personal reasons. over...

You won't rebuild SQUAT until you re-build the political system and throw these morons from the past 8 years out (...they really should be in jail!).

-you should tell her that if you hit it big, YOU will want a divorce. see what she says... bottom line is she is going to stick through thick and thin, or she wasn't worth marrying - NO offense ... many are not willing to handle tough times which leads to the high divorce rates.

how original! and no it's not my money. it would be so funny if we ever actually met and i'll leave it at that. it was my mistake to write on this site after a long hiatus...now i realized why i stopped writing. i'm wasting my time here...good luck to all of you.

hehehe....classic.

none taken. and i don't need you to explain squat in 'laymans terms'. and again, if you actually read what i just wrote: i said tech. analysis is great in many spots/cases...but NOT in friday's run. if you think that was a technically driven run....then i'm sure you threw in a 3000 lot to...

technicals are great at times...but thinking that it was a technical rally is absurd. sometimes all technicals go down the tubes where there's important news disseminated. that's all. i guess you can't use technicals AND something else....it's either/or?

....based on the technical nonsense talk here - HOW many of you 'analysts' went fully long based on your charting? following the breakdown at around 3.30 below the day's support and simulaneous pop back above the day's support, you should've all gone FULLY long and retired by now, no...

...he said he wouldnt go long oil because TBoone is not bullish and is actually shorting oil. based on this nonsense, mr SteveD 'would not go long oil'. the absurdity is trust in TBoone's words....therein lies the humor.

go watch the interview again...he did say he is shorting oil. and you can believe him.

only thing i can tell you is that when you heard gasparino was going to report on the ABK bailout, you should've bought everything as big as you could. all this other stuff you mentioned is nonsense. best thing to do sometimes is to keep it as simple as possible!

Al from Oz, is it just me? or is it totally absurd that everyone is turning the gasparino report to some kind of technical purpose to buy? if anyone reads about what has been going on in the credit markets and the difficulty the mkts have had on the upside, they'd understand this is huge...
