There was a conversation a while back about a day in trading. A person imposed on a broker to get him to review the day. The broker was not even asked ahead of time. But he did the review as a courtesy to the person who imposed upon him. What do you think happened as a result of the...

Do you think you could Critique David Boucher by answering the Q's? Do you have any other Q's? 100K a year is 420 bucks a day; the dollars, contracts and points relationship is below.... LOL 420, 1, 9 210, 2, 4 140, 3, 3 102, 4, 2 84, 5, 2 42, 10, 1 Notice all the...

Could you give a critique of Dave Boucher's article in the June 2008 Futures. See pages 46 through 49. Here are a few Q's for you (in no particular order): 1. Do you think he was too conservative to just use the 50 or more swing in the Opportunity Leverage values for the days in the week...

I respect your viewpoint. You mention his determination. I feel that he is captive to the environment he read about. My view is that he could have mentioned a lot more in terms of tangible influences. A lot of top B schools use pragmatic case studies and no stone is left unturned. I do not...

LOL.... And I posted this before reading the BW article on new recruits (See page 42 to 46). That was very frightening. The article on shut downs of foreign branches of B schools was equally forboding. There are lots of extremely significant things coming up in the near future. Our...

On page 22, the famous referal of this thread you missed the end of the current dominant trend. And you criticized the guy who was opposite you on the right side of the trend. There is a post showing in this thread what a period of time looks like between a trend and its resumption. that...

MBA top 10 (Read article in BW starting on pg 42). 7 years of awareness of markets + portfolios (They are not being managed now). Indicator comments after MBA and 7 years and portfolios. "I've done a lot of testing" comment. What you have done is excuse yourself from becoming a...

You are very consistent in the mistakes you are making. There are some good posts here that point these out in examples on the main topic. Try to review this thread and get straight on about three major things.

It looks like you have some of the choices already made for you. The company philosophy and policies are givens. They will be used to filter the global recruits and determine all the translations you will be doing. The company's platforms and the series of ATS's they will be using dictate...

Very easy. Get question practice sets with correct answers and do them 3 to 5 times until you get each set near perfect. You should be able to do them at about twice the rate of time allowed.

Hi Wallace, I was just passing through that thread. I believe the OP was Maestro and he was phishing for an explanation of how phenomena that doesn't exists works. He was making an association with spreads, MLR std dev, and MLR's and it was in a relatively illiquid market situation. I...

You have been mislead, unfortunately.

Yes, like a 4 dollar stop out and a 57 dollar gain.

Some day you may wish to set up a spread sheet and compare how trading period and trading profits compare in various stock buy and hold position trading opportunities. I settled on trading the natural cycle of high beta stocks. The optimum for this is 2 1/2 days for the period and over 10%...

Put up a OTR (One Tic Range) chart For your convenience. they usually will shown time divisions that correspond to your bar chart. Use P and V for both. Also watch three streams: DOM 50+ T&S and All T&S. You will begin to notice the market's capacity as the day goes along. As the...

I don't think that this can be generalized. Were a trader to post real time calls, the effect would be to place him at a spot on the continuum of other known trader's performance. He already knows that. The continuum for theory and live calls is an identity once either is on the table...

MB coupes have worked well over the years 190SL conv 300 SL (gullwing) 170s (was a profit since did not depreciate) conv 280C now using 750il four door by BMW.

People seem to think differently in different parts of the country. Many funny stories out there. Staying an amateur, just means you never get asked about trading.
