the internet has made so that he who toot's his horn loudest is the new big name. since it's so easy to toot the internet horn we have watered down and spread out the previously concentrated big names. now everyone with a keyboard is a big name guru. i was a quant in the 80's and now everyone...

can't wait for the dest fund to have a independently audited track record published. however since he stated that he doesn't need the money i hope he still intends to go professional.

to carry this further would not volume also play into the equation?

i hope when dest starts his fund he can finally provide a independently audited track record. until then i am sure his vagueness will serve it's purpose to attract investors that he says he doesn't need, lol.

i would not vote for a dem if they promised to give me "whatever attracts dumb assess" ..... you want something go earn it.

line up your ducks: 1.) low latency internet with good speed, meaning number of hops and ping times are important as speed. 2.) clearing cost, platform, right market, equipment, psyche, environment, planning etc. all need perfection. 3.) with most all the ducks in a row lined up all that is...

tick increment .10 vs .25 makes a huge difference in smoothness.

can a non registered person manage a registered fund?

for me it's the tick size that makes the es tuff. however it's swings are bigger and the liquidity paramount for large orders. so it's a trade off when i am trying something new i trade 10 tick increment point futures, after refinement i trade the highly liquid es.

do you guys have advisors accounts where the advisor makes a trade and it's reflected in the clients account? also a question what about a non-member advisor - advising a registered members accounts and or fund?

i am looking to fund legitimate fully automated algos with the right stats.

sadly i can not use it if it's not completely automated and risk less than 1 point per contract es (4ticks) or rty (10 ticks) etc. win rate is not important if the profit factor is 1.4 or better

gimme stats and i will either fund you or shoot it down no shit. < if it's automated i see some comments it may not be that's a no go. i can tell you now to trade 1000 contracts at a time it better have some good money management.

I guess the modern day prospect suppliers would also be providing the gold maps and video instruction tutorials. lol

left handed people are seldom logical thinking.

i have mixed feelings about it because i have had mentors that were not profitable traders and mentors that were profitable traders. even on this forum of fake people i get ideas that are good and can be expanded on. i think it's up to each person to filter their own information based on their...

actually it was quite good but then again i am in my left mind so of course we are polar opposites in thinking. difference is that i can accept your odd thinking but you can not accept my logical thoughts. sad

If I was running a prop shop I would want my traders making money. I would not want them setting around trying to figure out how to trade on their own. It's totally understood that every trader must find his own way and methods that jive with their inner soul. But again it would be in the...

it's like saying : I am a drunk driver spending time in prison for killing someone in a head on collision. So cars are dangerous and no one should be trying to drive cars because their so dangerous. Just Google it I know it's the truth lol.
