Best Tape Reading member in ET?

I wonder if this person even exists.

 

Of course he exists. He should only be less stupid then all the others. That would be enough to be the best.

 

So that is how you made over 1500 posts, you really spent your time well.

 

Stupid questions get stupid answers.
Apparently you didn't spent your time well with 12 like on +500 postings...

He's from Harvard. Called Mark I.



That's him. On the right.

 

Always wondered if a mouse with a metal collar was crawling around in that machine, would take affect the output? Or would it become a Toasty mouse? I also wonder if traders just come up with insane ideas and questions? Like how far is fast?

 

That mouse would have been the first computer mouse in her log book =P
What if a bug would have been a mouse ? A mouse would be a bug ?

 

By the way, you should know that less and less people use "tape reading" expression.
Indeed, Finance did some nice progresses since the 19th Century.
A decade ago, High Frequency Trading appeared and killed classic tape reading traders.
Today, "Order book trading" should be more appropriate, I think this is the only viable way to trade the "tape" in the 21th century. But I am opened to the discussion because I never trade order book and I will never for sure.

May be we should call that a "buy ask" reading trader but I think most of us call them the tape reading trader.
