    shrinking volatilty

    On what do you base your assemption on? Are you a veteran? People I had some discussions with were veterans, and they were laughing at me telling me that we should start thinking about NDX intraday ranges very close to those of the S&P... if not equal to them, but certainly not twice or...

    shrinking volatilty

    Volatility has been coming down, no doubt about it. But what next? Is this just the beginning, the return to normality? I heard some saying that THIS IS NORMAL VOLATILITY, as opposed to one-two years ago, which was exceptionnal and only possible in those very rare crazy markets you see...

    prop trading in Europe?

    I see a lot of talk about proprietary trading in the US. But has anyone here some info/stories/experiences on prop trading in Europe? I'm from Belgium. Even in London, friends working there in banks/hedge funds tell me it' s very limited, as this seems to be more of a US type of thing, with...

    insider activity on GE

    In recent days, GE has been trashed. I thought it would be extremely interesting to see how insiders behave here. If they are as positive and confident as they always claim to be. I checked and asked some people, but noboby seems to have spotted anything of interest. Has anyone seen anything?

    anyone trading off news?

    Bone, I find what it very interseting. I often think about playing just the very first reaction to the numbers, but all this requires to be lightning quick. I guess that' s why you have that kind of stuff you described :) And even if good stuff certainly helps, you also have to be an...

    anyone trading off news?

    Yes, I can explain the way we try to do it. When we start the day, before the open, we try to get all the information we can. All that we believe could have an impact. We never go against the news, whatever happens. If it' s good, we look to play it long, if it is bad, we look to play it...
