Every question he has specifically asked of me...I've helpfully given him the information (review his questions to me). Thus, I'm not the one bugging him and saying "who cares" or questioning him about vanity. Seriously, you've only got 5 posts here and you act like you've been here a long time. What's wrong with you because if you really know my posts that well... Then you should know that I'm just going to tell you to fuck off and don't waste your time being an instigator or you can spend your time contributing to the conversation and this forum or walk around here pointing fingers. Your choice. Welcome to ET and I'm sure you've heard that before in your prior alias.
Where is your value beyond piling on negativity in every post and reciting hearsay? You do not see the inherent negativity and stupidity in your own demand above? My friend, your statenent says far more about you than the words themselves.
Hey marketsurfer, I am not your friend and the clues in your online posting habits are obvious. With that said, there's absolutely nothing negative about asking someone about the specifics of a "documentary about day traders" especially only after he asked traders to contact him along with giving out his email address. Reminder, it was I, nobody else that gave him helpful suggestions about how to contact "day traders". I did that because he seemed surprised that there was "no interest". Simply, I gave him a reason for the no interest and then gave him specific information on how to find his "day traders" for his documentary. In contrast, your inherent negative is obvious via the fact you only have now 8 posts at this forum and you've enter a thread and have not made one single contribution to the topic of "day traders in New York". Instead, you have made a choice to try bother me. Here's another choice you can make...go bother those that have been critical of the guy instead of bothering me that has been helpful to him. I doubt your new alias will do that but Baron can surely encourage you to get the message on your way out the door. We all know you know who Baron is...he's the guy that banned your butt as marketsurfer and all your other associated "aliases". P.S. I'll let Baron know you're back and you're now on my ignore list because that's one thing I know about you (marketsurfer)...you hate being ignored.
Quick question. Is this the new Marketsurfer alias? Eden? Marketsurfer has used the term degen in the past and the triple hyphen --- are similar... Confirm or deny please
Its already been confirmed with proof by Baron... http://www.elitetrader.com/et/index.php?threads/true-value-on-elite.298916/#post-4266252
not sure yet, still in very early phase, research, planning, etc. Maybe festivals? Probably shown in a gallery space at Rutgers University where I am an MFA student.
Thanks for the reply. Have you contacted students that use Rutgers trading room (The Finance Lab and Center for Investment Management) ? Its not uncommon for students to be day trading especially in the summer when they don't have as much academic responsibilities. That time duration can also be a good time to repost about your documentary if you're still looking for "Day traders in New York". In addition, there are many known university trading competitions and Rutgers has participated in some of them although I don't think Rutgers is in the big international college competitions. Thus, I think Rutgers sticks to the North America competitions with a dozen or so schools. You could contact your school to find out the names of those other universities and then you could send out information to those schools business, finance or economics students that participated in those competitions that are New York residents...notifying them about your documentary. I know universities like Drexel and Forhham usually competes in those trading competitions in North America...they often place in the top for some of the categories for the past several years. Note: You can also attend those competitions and give contact information to those competing. Simply, there's a big world of trading outside this forum right under the noses of many members that they don't even know about. The latter above may be more useful considering its not uncommon to see these same students to be doing some kind'uv trading from their own personal accounts. Oddly, I've never seen an ET member that's a student (we have lots of students here) as an undergrad or grad talk about any of the trading rooms at their schools nor talk about any of the trading competitions that are often attended by representatives from some of the world's top financial institutions looking for young talent especially in the quant categories (most competitions have multiple categories and algorithms is one of them). In fact, we have a lot of threads here were someone new states they are an undergrad or MBA student wondering how they can get their feet into the door of these big firms and they never even heard of their own school competing in these types of competitions...trading rooms partly financed and sponsored by these world known firms. Good luck.
I'd think most daytraders don't live in NYC, especially the ones on ET. If you're in NYC and in daytrading then you probably work for a firm and can't just appear in a documentary without permission.
Agree. I even named a few cities that have been named as the top financial centers in the world along with listing that New York is not in the top 4 for "day traders. That top of the hill belongs to London (top in many different categories), Hong Kong, Singapore and Chicago. You're right...professional traders will need permission from their firm (financial institutions) and probably the same permission is needed if the trader is at a prop firm. Therefore, he'll most likely be trying to reach retail day traders trading that trades from home or have a part-time/full-time job but day trades on their spare time. The other obvious source is students that are day trading...many as such at this forum and probably can better relate to them because he's a student himself.
