Inside the Industry - Chat w/ Don Bright

03-21-03 Quote from seisan:

.......As I recall, he [Bob Bright] made $2100 in about 21 minutes beating the house [to remain unnamed top casino] at 21.....!! All this after starting his day at 4 AM, trading a couple [hundred] [or] [several hundred] thousand shares of AOL, share-teaching class, handling other duties of the business, hosting a packed dinner, and answering endless questions about his first love - professional trading! Don, after his full day of teaching Opening Only Orders, share-teaching, fielding phone calls from all over the U.S., and wrestling with a the ET Chat endeavor, also was heading for another casino where he could perform the same feat at a variation of 21, when the remaining of us headed still elsewhere....

Pulled up Andre's chat session thread to make a suggestion and found a now already year old post of mine with a glaring ommission - a far less accounting of shares (estimate-corrected above) traded by Don's brother Bob one trading day prior to a BT training class. It shows some class that neither one has even mentioned it.

As for the suggestion - more on tape reading than Inside the Industry - I'll request that they discuss it in a segment during their internet/radio show tomorrow (Saturday, 4-3-04).

seisan,

Now you're set. (You had still missed the obvious - always the trader first - in your interesting, but perhaps too enthusiastic story).

Uh, what's with the politically correct name for blackjack...? Like vegas, it is what it is.

Track down the transcript of last ..... "chat" - and I will see if we can do another one.

If I get another group of specific questions (PM or Email), then we can use them as a start for another "State of the Industry" forum.

Currently, we are dealing with overseas traders, access to the markets, uptick rules, ARCA-EX auctions, Specialist rules and the like....

Send a note to Andre' - perhaps he will plan another chat...

Don

Yes, Don, all of the headlines say
Future looks 'Bright' for Las Vegas Trading Firm,
but short of a fully-developed ET Chat,
give us some ideas how Bright has guided its traders
through the turbulent market during the past 3 months.

Surely, all of those pointers can't be secrets!
 
We had a nice chat with Don and Darren Clifford of PairCo today. We covered NYSE specialist executions and went over Pair trading strategies with Darren. Here's the Log.
