    Going Prop = Resume Killer?

    Careers want people to make good decisions regardless of the time it takes to make them. People in managing positions have to make decisions on imperfect information and follow through with them. A CEO cannot know everything that is happening within the company (unless the company is really...

    The next enron - Xethanol

    Hum...I checked the short interest is only like 3.6% of float. So probably right about that although those figures are lagging but it doesn't look like that shouldn't have change much recently. It appears no one besides the insiders really have any equity interest to care if this thing goes...

    Going Prop = Resume Killer?

    I think some posters do not have the right perspective in people going to give it a shot in trading at a prop shop. Most of those starting a career at a prop shop (like me) are young and have very little to lose. The worst thing that can happen to me is that I have to find another job...

    The next enron - Xethanol

    That is pretty interesting stuff. However, I'm not sure about the credibility of the authors (but I'm not saying they are making this stuff up either). The chart appears that it has some momentum downward and one maybe able to ride that for a few more days. What maybe of a concern is that...

    Automated Trading

    TKM, Forgive me if I am misjudging, but seeing as this is your first post and your response has nothing to provide toward the question I was asking, I feel you are only trying to promote this company for personal gain. I believe your response was absolutely fruitless towards the conversation...

    Automated Trading

    So I am a curious wannabe trader dreaming about automated trading. What do the professionals used for automated trading? I'm not talking about Tradestation, I hear the program can be inefficient when it comes to processing code (although this would only matter for super scalping). But maybe...

    Market on close imbalances

    Thanks for letting the world know and making it harder for the people (including you) who trade this strategy. The profit potential decreases as the more people know (as with any strategy). For the record, I currently don't trade this strategy, but was hoping to in the future. You just cost...

    ETF Futures

    I've searched to see if this topic has already been discussed, but was not able to find anything. Can someone explain to me why there are futures for SPY, QQQQ, and DIA when there are the corresponding e-minies? Just a little confused on what's the point.

    Filtering for principal market-maker/specialist trades?

    Does anyone know if it is possible to determine which trades on the stock markets are principal or agent trades from a market maker or specialist? Like maybe acquiring this information through the use of the OATS or ACT? Or what I am wondering is if there is something similar for stocks as...

    Market Profile Plus by bolter

    Currently, at the moment, I do not day trade, but I'm wondering what anyones reaction was today who used MP S/R levels when the ES blew through yesterdays high and the UVA, and then quickly headed south. Also, was the bounce off the LVA after the UVA breakout failed and continued to smash...
