software how about this, I bet you 10,000 dollars all my blotters are in fact true. I will have my mastertrader account rep show them to you at the NYC show. you can bring me cash or a certified check. you can study them until your heart is content but I get to take them home with me. I dont want someone like you learning anything from me, you seem like a jerk and a real ass.

accept this bet now and we can meet up at the nyc show and specifically the elitetrader party if you would like.

Ok software1 put up or shut up. Where are you?
I'll take some action on this too, on mks side.

what I HATE about OPG's are the gambler's factor...

trusting these specialists has lead too many traders to ruin, as you guys have testified to. Being down -$4,800 from the outset would compromise most traders, no matter prop or retail....save for some of the huge balance traders....

Yes, I kind of agreed. DOwn 7Grand today, after making a couple G in three weeks. During the opening there are so many volatile movements that can create opps. While waiting for your fills,(which you never know how many you can get), one sometimes lose the opps more profitable setups.

One thing is that with this OPG, most profits will be made on many mutiple positions. WHile, I notice in this thread that the big traders made money on a few concentrated positions. When having multiple positions, the risk is more difficult to watch than having one or two positions.

what I can't understand is your buy and sell prices are exact, so where is the profit, whether through reduced comms or free BRUT, but you said you were on ARCA, so, how can you show a profit?

limitdown, why is truth matter so much to you? I don't get it, whether he is true or fake, why does it matter so much to you?
 
wow! you nailed this one...

i gave up OPG the 2nd time about a month ago. i realized getting price improvements and doing opg is hindering my ability to read the market. instead of looking where the market is going... i was looking to go against the trend!!!

my 2nd try(6months) at OPG was net profitable.


keep posting guys. this is one of the better journals kept here with varieties of inputs from a diverse group of people.

trusting the specialists to allow you to enter with them has worked in the past but consistently is not worth the risk vs. just position trading from one side or another...

every now and then the payoff attracks back more traders, but are we now discussing slot machines, bacarrat or other gaming table games? or trading strategies..

there's a firm that trains its traders to get started each morning with the FV (fair value) and other S&P data, and their Excel spreadsheets and last closing prices, and all that just to preload in OPG orders on both sides of the underlying upon the hopes of getting filled in the direction of the specialist...

too many guys met their early term fate that way and never got to learn about making money during the normal trading days....
 
I am taking today off. It's been a pretty crappy week for me. I pulled down a few k but nothing to cheer about. Its going to be 100 today so maybe I'll head to the beach. :)
Have a good weekend everyone
