So You Want To Be A Modern "Trader": Here Are The Requirements

Not for nothing, but this guy was spoofing in the copper market? His insane. That is not a market I would want to be caught offsides in. I would imagine he could easily have been picked off spoofing a few hundred lots. Good luck getting out of that when copper gets moving.

Wow. They had me at Dumpling Making Class. I can tell the guy on the left is a Ten year Note Spoofer. He's copying the guy in the middle. Huge tell in the land of the spoofers.

Man I must be getting old. Their after work activities include cooking, whirleyball, ping pong......candy poker day ????????? Man times have changed. Half the shit we used to do after trading hours was borderline illegal. Ok....not borderline.

If I suggested candy poker day I would have had a chair thrown at me. Rightfully so.
 
lol what a pile of shit.
Exactly...for many reasons:
1) spoofers are going to jail soon. The exchanges are creating algos to detect pulled bids and offers.

2) no one codes in C++ any longer....the code becomes unmaintainable.
Heck, Tradestation almost went out of business because they had a million lines of c++
code with no comments and their programmers left them.

3) "R" is a piece of crap compared to other stat packages like SPSS and SAS.

4) All "machine learning" buys you is a system that is curve-fitted and won't remain profitable for more than a few months.
