I'm going to have to edit one post so I stay up and up with the federales I guess. I'd rather not post $ returns, but they're in the low 6-figures. As per some people's criticisims of my accounting for open positions, I'd like to point out that after a pr release in one stock (it's up 30% in 2...

I wouldn't like jail. So I guess I will be a bit more hush about a proposed venture into hedge funds. Is it really illegal to think outloud about possibly starting a fund. It seems that these hedge fund laws are much tougher than any other laws. For instance, I can legally say that I intend to...

Never went. I guess I wasn't as interested at the time as I am now. I think it's the result of not having ever paid taxes at the time, and now having to deal with them.

CA Grange, What exactly am I calling Gerald Barbara about? Thankyou for the lead though. I just wanted to know what I should ask about.

Cramer just buys good stories at attractive prices. Then he uses a good scale to add to his positions. As long as the story doesn't change, he stays in. I think that's good investing. I think he'd be a great investor though if he had a slight understanding of tech analysis, but he still has had...

Thankyou. I don't know why I couldn't find it.

voltrader: I don't consider these stocks to be part of my trading. They are in a seperate account that I've never considered to be part of my trading and when they go up substantially, I don't think I will include them either. Furthermore, when investing, your entry is often irrelevent. It's...

Baron, is there a way you can up the message size for personal messages from 1500 characters to say 3000?

Get Wall ST. Some of it is fabricated, but it is probably pretty accurate.

I want the guys who soros uses. Lets talk more about this though and the exact way to do it.

Read his piece today on TYCO. He can make even tough balance sheet stuff that's hard to understand make sense.

I still find it absoluetley invaluable. I don't think I'd be in business still if I hadn't learnt from cramer as much as I have. I don't trust their tech analysis stuff. I think that most tech analysis people are just trend/momentum/breakout artists anyway. I think that type of trading is a...

Say I wanted to set up something like this legally, how would I do it? Irregardless of cost, how do you set it up. Why on earth aren't we all?

Then how does he avoid paying us taxes on his gains?

skrilla, can you post some of that article. Does anyone know how soros has his fund set up?

I play stocks that have gotten nuked. You get nice bounces. Look at agm yesterday. There sure was a lot of pin action there.

Spieler, Thankyou for the info. If you don't mind me asking, how did you get your funding? Did you have to pay a percentage for seed capital? What percentage is standard in the hedge industry? Jim- I'll check that now. Thankyou. Babak- I wish I had access to these fund managers. I however...

If they are even asking me questions like that, then they don't realize how dedicated I am. I have taken 7 trading days off in the last 17 mos. That's pretty impressive. I have showed up with the flu and I doubt that anything could take me out of the game. If I have no open positions, then no...

Mike, what I am trying to say is that these 2 positions should not be calculated for my p/l. They are actually in a seperate third account so that the IRS knows that as well, and doesn't mark them to market. I'll be holding these 2 stocks for well over a year or three. I do include open losses...

I was told that a lot of these firms wouldn't let me trade how and what I like. Many of them have stocks which they refuse to let people trade, or i'd be forced to trade them in 100 share increments. Many of these stocks are the ones I trade.
