Goldman Gaming AIG Today

Quote from atticus:

I agree that a subscription/ad-model would help to curb the proxy-alias bullshit that is rampant. Charge $25 per handle per year and see how miraculously the T-28 and stock_trad3r threads disappear.

Silicon Investor tried that and its now a ghost town.
 
Quote from Landis82:

You continue to make the MISTAKE of "rationalizing" why prices are where they are instead of simply trading and making money.

I hope you don't manage other people's money. You would be horrible as a money manager. :D

The old " The markets can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent" is 100% true. People just don't seem to get that.


Have seen so many of these "THE MARKET IS WRONG !!!!!" type of traders go up in flames.

When I first came into the business I was hired along with 3 other guys by a CTA to trade. He told us that all 4 would trade for a month, and he would keep the 2 guys based on performance.

Long story short....myself (I had 2 yrs experience on a prop desk)and a guy who came from the silver pit were hired. The 2 guys who didn't make it were ivy league types who had this "I am right, the market is wrong attitude".

I'll never forget the one guy they canned a week into the program. He was short Swiss Franc futures which were like 100 ticks up his ass. The head trader came in and asked him what his gameplan was. He said "My analysis is fundamentally correct...the market will come back". They canned him right after the close that day.
 
I sometimes do not understand people and how they think so I thought I might ask this question to better understand.

If you dont like this place and are 100% convinced it will not change, then why do you keep coming back and beating yourself to death over it? Why waste your time that could be better spent doing something else, anything else that makes you happy?

My guess is that you have some type of negativity in your life and you are generally insecure about yourself. Therefore, you come on here to vent on others telling them how they are so stupid and dumb.

If there is one person Baron should ban and get rid of, then it should be you. Its not right venting on others just because you are insecure with yourself. Go to a psychologist and do that on them, but not us.

Thanks.

Quote from EPrado:

Like you I only come on here for entertainment as 95% of the people on here are clowns and haven't traded real money or no what that's even like.

That being said if you read what Landis posts over time on here, he falls into the 5% who actually trade and know what he is talking about. Like him I also have a problem with people who spew ideas and talk a lot without backing it up with real money.

I agree with him for ripping that dude who was crying. Most likely the person was whining "conspiracy theory" because he lost money and wanted to place the blame on something besides his wrong call.

Stock_Trad3r, it's time to look yourself in the mirror.

Haven't you been shamed enough on this site as it is?

You and your ridiculous "paper-trades" like the 100 contracts short at 944 on 7/20 and the hundreds of posts that you have littered ET with under dozens of aliases???

So much for your "trading" journal.

It wound up becoming absolute COMEDY and moved to the "Chit Chat" forum.
 
The truth, the honest truth, is that I dont beat anyone up. I have a great time in life with the people Im with and what I have.

However, judging by 7000 of your posts, which all have some type of negative slant, you seem somewhat disturbed. Go back some time and read what you type. You dont like this place, you constantly complain, but yet you keep coming back. Why? Ask yourself why?

Have a good night.

Well stock turder if my comments about this place being full of idiots gets a few of you to leave then mission accomplished.

Again...I come on here for comedic pleasure as some of these knuckleheads are so out of touch it's funny. And I don't berate too many people on here..only occasionally.
 
Quote from S2007S:The financials would be 90% lower today if the government didn't prop them higher.
So that means we can short the financials with reckless abandon and average into losing positions that go 500% against us? Just because in "reality" they should be trading 90% lower?
