this is the first one to read. as old as it is - the lessons still apply today. fun easy reading. you will probaly read this many times in your trading career. Congrats on the MBA. I am working towards mine too. It does not teach you anything about trading though. I think that is what...

he had good ideas and i did enjoy most of the book. But the guy thought he was god's gift to the statistical world. got so sick of hearing him drone on about himself.

are you kidding. it's a stupid name anyway. thocks thoutlook. keep it.

the "Worldco Diaries" would be a great book. some funny shit happened there. I hear the $$ will be returned. Just a matter of when. Keep your fingers crossed.

not a common book but there are copies of it floating around. it outlines all the rules they abide by - and the ones they break!

you say you are a global macro trader. who do you trade through and what kind of rates,deals, etc do firms like yours offer? i know tradestation is moving into commodities, futures, options, currencies. as other smart firms are. don bright - any plans?

i think it's a great opportunity. from there to the NYSE eventually. if you don't want it - a ton of other people do.

without bullets do you think it will be harder for bears to hammer back the market once it hits 10K? I know nat shorts can be put out there but nothing builds momentum like a slew of traders posting and selling. Maybe I am overestimating the power bullets and the small trading firms have...

mook101 - hillarious.

there is the real truth. market ain't what it was. About $15 for 1000. Even firms practically giving away bullets they had to make up huge chunk of revenue - period. no one likes to hear good things about WLDC. I even had someone PM me concerned I was trashing him about his WLDC...

whatever. bullets made people big $$. not made you $$. I am sure you are some master trader? It is just a dumb comment to make. I believe people that are pissed on smell funny and shouldn't step foot on any trading floor. so stay at home. bullets were HUGE. watch the weak firms...

most of the mooks in this board are loving the WLDC rumors. they closed their shop - they returned 67% of cap. plan on paying rest. i know the people who liked to bash worldco are upset things didn't turn out worse - so sorry. the rumors were all bull. i am glad I was at worldco who...

reformat your drive at least twice a year. the fastest and best your computer will run is after a fresh wiping of the harddrive. defragging and basic maintenance helps inbetween. just have a good backup plan for all your data.

traders come and traders go. the good ones adapt and that is great. but from 1996 - 2002 were some killer years when a trader with balls could have made a killing. many of us did. now that market volatility hurts and bullets are gone there are gonna be fewer awesome traders and many...

yeah true but you know what - they gave us fair weapons against the crooked specialist. in the end we are just noise anyway. market is gonna do what the market is gonna do. the pounding bids aspect of the market gave us our own market to trade against eachother and the specialist. They...

too much for me to read in your blah blah blah posts. you gotta admit - it is big and obnoxious with the color highlighting and all. please.

i responded to your first message in this forum only to see you have many more messages to follow. You might want to lighten up on your preachy conspiracy theory tag line you got there on each and every message. It is pretty obnoxious. Start a forum about that somewhere so you can...

Wow harry - you are quite the conspiracy theorist. International Bank cartel sounds interesting as well. I will just have to take your word on that one. I think this is a great idea. It gives the arabs an incentive ($$$$) to tell on their leaders. Simple as that. Markets know -...

well said

Sure do. No, not in IBM but obviuosly in the thin stocks. Hedge Funds use bullets too. Day traders are like mini hedge funds minus the LT strategies. It is trading. Buyers move out of way when then see stock plumeting from bullets hitting the bid. Bullets posted quickly and automatic...
