Does anybody really want to buy a EuroBond that does not have Germany's credit behind it? Who would I look to for repayment -- France?

I've read many of your posts Thomas and admire that they ae generally a bull's eye when it comes to being on point and clearly laid out. Yet it is my experience that good IB's (of which there are admittedly few) should not be viewed as one man or ten man shops. You have the full depth of the...

Good Morning, It is a pleasure working with you at Crossland LLC and we do appreciate your business. Due to volatile market conditions, we wish to inform all clients of the new funding policy at Crossland LLC. All accounts initial deposit will be $5,000.00 and the customer must...

His ability to know that each and every bull market will end someday despite the public's willingness to think it will rise to the moon and beyond has no value to me. I would rather believe I have a 75% chance of being right that the top has already been put in and sacrifice a few hundred...

Yes ... we understand mean reversion. Do yoy understand how many predictions guys like him throw into the wind? That is the broken watch/clock syndrome -- right twice a day!

I agree completely.

Why would Gross go to jail?

Each to their own.

Yes .... we do know because we have all been there. I just don't ever want to go back there!

At Rithmic here is the guy to ask: jonathan.walden@rithmic.com He knows his product inside and out, is generous with his time and, all and all, is a good guy. I think with R/trader the straight stop order may even reside at the exchange but he is the guy to ask. The feed is superb and...

While I agree with dealmaker that the markets run in cycles (hard to disagree) it must be noted that times like 2008 and early 2009 are not around very often.

I think yes for a straight stop and no for OCO. Here is how to be best setup with SC/Rithmic. Once you have that combo set and working download R/Trader from the DeepDiscount site it's free (note not R/Trade Pro). Use SC for charts and R/Trader to execute and you have server side on even OCO...

I'm pretty pleased about how fortunate I have been in business over the years and it still amazes me that there are those who act as if every guy who works job is somehow not pulling his weight.

As a working definition one might say those without a college education that are earning commensurate with their education in fileds you would expect to employ them. I've heard guests on CNBC (I am ashamed to admit I watch it on rare occasion -- it really is crap!) that are making seven...

The concept of "an entire month's salary" as a metric is new to me.

I'm not suggesting insider sales has no value but there are a million reasons to sell including diversification. Insider buying on the other hand is always interesting. The only reason to buy is that you think the stock will appreciate.

Nice to see you. I remember our conversations around the time of the MF Global meltdown. You may or may not be overtrading but I do not think you can use 2008 as a metric of any sort. Make your judgments on what your reason is telling you now with no reference to the '08 abberation.

I think the whole world is slowing down. I think all this talk about the recovery gaining steam is crap. Clearly events can drive crude higher, even much higher, but based on the world economy I think it could go below 80 in coming months. That said, you rarely make money on fundemental...

I don't disagree with much of this but I think a simpler phrasing will be more helpful. Here is a plan that might work for you: Since you need six months (at least) to learn enough to risk one thin dime you should study, learn and sim for at least that long. During that time accumulate at...

If you roll funds from an IRA to a solo 401K you get even more flexibility.
