You are now my favorite person [who I've never met]. This is hilarious. This is going on my bloomberg greeting tag tomorrow.
Sure. Why not. I knew about this website years and years and years ago when I just started out learning about stocks in school. It's just entertainment now - breaks up the slow days.
Dont' recall *that* precisely, but somewhere around then. It was when Hitman was chasing his Princess and I had my first Datek account. Ah the memories....
Yes I am in high school but have probably had more market experience than 3/4 the people on et. Im not bragging about a 3.0 gpa I wish it was higher but I know I will be going to a state college so I don't really care. I can understand now why you would need quants. I thought they were just people who did nothing but try to find relationships between numbers and where the market is going. So correct me if im wrong but they just help price the market and figure out risk reward ratios? I trade mainly grains and other physical commodities. I live on a farm so that helps me with the grain trade. It is a lot more cut and dry in the commodity markets and way less complicating than the stuff you are talking about (frankly I dont know why anyone would want to trade something that complicated). I only need to know how to add and subtract to trade my markets and would not be trading if I had to figure calculus and algebra equations throughout the day! That would suck!
