Thanks for the link. That was interesting. The part that I like the most was about the United Airlines BK rumor that the news algos picked up from a mistakingly reprinted old article

Quote from Flashboy:

I would love to see a reality type show based on trading.

Maybe similar to the Biggest Loser.. something along those lines.

Where traders trying to make are filmed for all to see and they track their progress, gains, etc..

There has been one but interestingly enough not from the US. It's from 2009 and fairly well presented. What's funny is the people all tried to trade the same methods while clearly having very different personalities and skill sets.

The film "Margin Call" was decent. It's available via Amazon streaming, or perhaps Redbox has it. Definitely worth watching.

If someone can show manifest the actual video here, I would much appreciate it. I could only load the link and not the video on here.

There was a unique advert by Mercedes a few years ago that was actually made to promote their new SL Roadster but it was made to look like a trading sci-fi movie

The preview gained a lot of recognition, it starred Benicio Del Torro as a mysterious figure that had uncanny stock picking abilities. The spooks and the SEC were onto him etc,etc.

I think it was directed by Michael Mann and was canned for a later date...it looked pretty good all the same.
