I think about my old man. How hard he made me work before I got this shot. How I started to resent him a bit...but now, appreciate him more than he'll know. He worked like this, and he made it, with no college degree and nothing going for him...and he wanted me to do the same. My advice is...

Just curious Don as to your reference in speaking to Magnus about MAcfutures.. was this before they sold it to Refco, or since the disintegration of Refco ?

Go with someone who clears thru one of the bigger houses. SLK ( Goldman Sachs) has always had a good stock loan department, so find someone who clears thru them. But . with the new rules regarding shorts, it has been increasingly difficult to do so this year. Trade futures;its easier ,ande...

know options well as they make a good % of the test. Best of luck and let us know how it goes. BTW, when you press the button at the end and wait for the score will seem like an eternity...

griffin kubik and stephens in chicago; their chief economist, Brian Westburyappears on CNBC with some regularity. Classy people

I am fairly certain that it has nothing to do w/ Joe Ritchie. Ask Geneva if they still take newbies out in the woods, give them a few mundane tools,and leave them there for a couple of days and nights to figure how to get food, shelter, etc. As others have stated, the payout is quite low.

A couple of points here.. Roy E. Friedman , the REF, died last year,and he was out of the picture anyway. Phil Bennett, current CEO, sold stock, as did Thomas Lee, to recoup some money back from their purchase. Why go public now?" Sell when you can, not when you have to "has always been an...

the options questions play a big part in this exam, so make sure that you know those concepts very well. If you know options and are doing well on the practice exams, you are golden. good luck.

They want to register as a not for profit charitable firm???? Good luck with that...............................

spydertrader has it right..you have to have to have much more of a system. Gone are the days of " gee GS is outperforming ,and if the spoos turn around, I will buy the GS offer". you have to have much more,and you have to be disciplined enough NOT to trade, if your criteria for entering a trade...

Please tell me that you are kidding....

You have to absolutely look at the revisions. This report is perhaps the most voaltile economic report out there.Chances are if you think rationally it should be going one way,and it isnt,then many others are on the same ( wrong ) side as you,exerbating the move. Trade what is happening,not what...

i have it... whats your bid?

keep away from them. All -tech went bye-bye when SEC cracked down on them for facilitating customers lending each other money over night to meet margin. harvey is a rebel who has p o many in the business.

of course we have all seen it,mostly in the equities. Have seen in it also in S & p; which make sense. Look at the vix from one year ago; it is half of that value. Either trade bigger size and try to take less out of it,or change your criteria to get into a trade. Trade the treasuries these...

I witnessed first hand the crash of 87 and 89. 87 I was a newbie, freaking out a bit as many a more experienced trader rushed to his clearinghouse to get money out,and that several banks near the BOT had long lines of guys wanting to do the same thing. A very frightening time. Thought Id...

Include Refco Trading Services in that group...

MacFutures,headquartered In London,is by far the largest and the best. They also have offices in Paris & Gibraltar.

RTS looks for an undergrad degree , at minimum,in one of the business majors, but we have had persons from other backgrounds do well also. But the challenge for them is to make themselves more knowledgeable in the industry/profession,and then exhibit that knowledge/desire beyond a standard resume.

At Refco Trading Services, you DO NOT need a series 3. The manager needs a series 3 if hes dealing with own account customers. No contribution is necessary,but clearly you have to be highly motivated. A thorough interview process is involved,and you will be taught the technicals necessary to...
