    NYSE Specialists going away next year?

    Doubtful. The Specialists serve a vital function in a lot of stocks.

    What Is TradeBolt

    Is tradebolt able to connect to a broker or a front-end? What if I use a front-end other than Redi Plus at GSEC, can I use your product?

    Heard that Carlin(Generic) is closing Prop Division?

    While I do not think Carlin did anything intentionally wrong, this is not a stupid case. If Don thinks it is, that is bothersome. This chap was a registered person at Carlin when he (likely independantly of the firm) perppetuated this fraud. This industry is about self policing and part of...

    Eyesight surgery (LASIK) ?

    If you are concerned about the procedure, consider doing one eye at a time. I know two who did that. They did the worse eye first, waited 4 weeks then did the other eye. I also know one guy who only did 1 eye. He said you getr used to it and can now see both near and far.

    Assent, LLC

    A major difference between the two firms is the management. At Bright, they are led by two large ego traders who understand trading and the trader's plight. Assent may have lower rates, but the trader is just a "customer" who is a number to them. The upper management has no trading...

    What's the best source for intraday movers (equities)?

    Don't know of a source, but perhaps you could link prices into an excel spreadsheet, at 9:45 or 10:00 save those prices as values then set up another coulumn with current prices thena third column with the difference. Only problem is that you would have to have a universe of stocks from which...

    ETG+Schoney?

    Could be a churn mill. Seems to me that you need to go through a lot of people to find the good ones. Typical in the trading business. Trainees are only part of the office. There are many who put up their own money. Seems like taking the risk of a newbie and willingness to spend moeny on...

    ETG+Schoney?

    First, your implication that there is something necessary to resist having the last word makes no sense. Seems to me the time to stop speaking is when you have nothing to say, not for an arbitrary reason. I have no direct knowledge of why ETG's office is doing well (Thriving?!) and Bright's...

    ETG+Schoney?

    Although I am no english expert, definition 1 seems to fit my understanding of the situation. The office's number of traders has grown and they are making money. Whatever...argue semantics all you want. As for the Bright quote, he was talking about his office. I think he was referring to...

    Questions about prop firms...

    From what you said, you have many of the mental capabilities to be a successful trader. You are also correct in recognizing that that part is only half the game. You will need mental toughness, discipline, patience but a sense of urgency, courage and fear.

    Which makes what wrong, the math or the price?

    ETG+Schoney?

    Math is right as if the cost was $0.0016. Looks like the editor or fact checker didn't take the time to read the decimal places.

    ETG+Schoney?

    In this day and age and compared to Bright's office that is closing, 25 traders is thriving. I was just emailed an article on the Schoney/etg deal. You see by the article's last paragraph that Atlanta was and is doing real well or thriving. Schonfeld Buys Day-Trading Innovator By...

    ETG+Schoney?

    ETG's Atlanta office is thriving. They have at least 25 guys there. Bright's office I heard had reopened. I guess that didn't last. Bright has let many leases lapse and closed the offices then. Makes a lot of sense. guess Hot 'lanta is another one.

    ETG+Schoney?

    They got upfront cash and an earn out going forward. ETG is profitable and has been for the last 12 months at least. As far as I know 5 million shares is accurate. They can make money by cutting costs and cutting losing traders. Monthly overhead is now 1/3 what it was when he took over...
