  1. first why dont you 'short the shit' out of ET and SDS and show us all how much money you make since they're ridiculous money-losing business. I'm in manhattan, if you want to compare trading results i'll be up for it, no problem. let's compare actual account statements.

  3. So, are you willing to put up or shut up? You think you're the best trader out there, huh?

  4. If you go back to page 6, you will see that Magna (moderator) edited his post. He did indeed say listed.

  6. This is the classic "clinton" back off...You say something then say it was misconstrued.....But even if it is just for listed......You will lose...Hey, it's great for the trader, true, but long term, not profitable.....especially since SDS (andover ) is not a NYSE firm...they are trying to make money on volume not respectable profit margins.....that philosophy worked years ago when every office with 10 traders did at least 50 million shares a month....but alas, volume has dried, the market is tougher and they're getting desperate......I could possibly see SLK offering a rate like this because they do about 40% of all NYSE volume...but sungard? ....As far as shorting the stock ( SDS) .....I think Im late...they are down to 22.00 off their yearly high of around $38.00...hmmmm...looks like they are already discounted about 40% over the last year.....I'd still short it here....even if volume picks up, the margins are too thin.....and for all the posters saying " they wouldn't do it if they were going to lose money"....I would like to point out that most of the internet flyers everyone got rich off of all lost money, year after year....and now most of them no longer exist.....Just like 1/2 of the firms that were daytrading firms.

    As I explained on pg. 6, the items quoted above my message were removed from his posts, nothing more. Personal attacks have no place in this forum.

    I do not know how to be civil to anybody.
    I just bash and insult to make my point.
