If you're trading capital with which you are expected to do just that, you're wrong. No one (with a brain) has their retirement account with VN...
lol (I'll preface this by saying that I've traded options full time for going on fifteen years now, for myself, banks, funds, and prop shops....
I only skimmed it, but they're probably quoted in that Bloomberg article earlier in the thread. Atticus, as far as "otherwise", he also...
Don't talk about things you don't know about. Of course the SP positions hit him hard, but there was a lawsuit involved afterwards--he lost more...
A 10ms advantage is enough to make a SHITTON of money. IB is great for the small retail trader, even for scalping. But it's not in the major...

How do you know? Do you have money in his fund? It's easy for me to back up my position -- years and years of stellar returns and one blow up....

Niederhoffer = 0 to nine figures TWICE, including a very public and humiliating blowup, and much-less-publicized recovery. Taleb = wrote a...
