Exactly- in this hypothetical world you're living in, you can change what ever figures you want after the fact, but in reality, we can't trade in...
Ummm, okay, how about the one in my first paragraph then?
Again, your examples are obviously going to work out in your favor, since that's your argument. Where are you picking these figures from? No one...
You say you're not dealing with hypotheticals, but that's exactly what you're doing. How did you pick these arbitrary numbers? Math is very...
What most people are talking about taking a hit are the banks that issue credit. Stocks in some of the larger banks (JPM, COF, BAC, C, etc.) have...
IMO, yes. MasterCard went public almost 2 years ago (again, they started planning for it years before that), well before this credit crisis, so...
They didn't exactly wait until the credit meltdown to go public, these things take years of planning. It just so happens that the environment is...
Not true actually. There was an initial posted buy imbalance of 8,101,300 shares that dropped to 6,716,400 shares after the remix.
I hate responding to threads like this, but you actually told us to go long these: Every single one of them down on the day. Let me guess,...

Who are "people"? Most prop (chop shop, as you like to call it) traders couldn't care less what others want to see- the bottom line is, net P&L...
Exactly- if you look back at time and sales for instance, you'll see the first print (after 9:30 a.m. EST) on NMS was 63.00 at 9:30:01. If you...
Without looking into that particular fund, I'd say it wasn't a hedge against downside, it was a way to passively manage the fund while still...
I agree that volume doesn't have much to do with profitability, but if you do the math, your friend may very well make more than you if he paid...
:confused: You can get the same leverage in most cases whether you're paying .003 or .002. Commissions aren't the only thing to consider of...
Please tell me that this entire argument is because you screwed up the math? :confused:
The splitter will just display the same images across the multiple monitors. You'll need a different (dual, quad, etc.) video card to display...
What sounds like happened is that you waited until the last few seconds to cancel, and they held your order until the final print. Sometimes, the...
It depends on what your doing, if the order is routed out, etc. Here's a link to their website. As for the SEC fees, they're only charged on...
