Hi Alex: Are you referring to my calls (RFT's calls) or Bill's calls? My calls are in real-time, at the very second they happen. Some of them before time. Also how is business doing? Are people still hooked to the street or the recent carnage impacted business in terms of newcomers. Usually people know about stock in a bull leg, and miss the best and most profitable of all legs: the bear leg. RFT
Is Bill on expiration schedule? Be careful Bill, do not follow expiration too much because we do not want you to expire. Expiration is officially not until tomorrow (not today Friday). So as long as you show up before expiration things should be fine.
And I'll make it the sweetest of all. Only self anointed trading gurus who can't make enough--or any--money trading for themselves have chat rooms that charge real losers $300/month for calls that are taken on a simulator after the fact so they can post a hyper inflated track record on their website that has no resemblance to live trading.
In case you were wondering... Ball called for a bearish afternoon when the Dow was down 214. The Dow closed down 100. Ball = George Costanza
Riskfree, You touched on an interesting point. I myself wonder if the increase in people interested in trading points to a WEAKENING economy. Maybe when things get better trading room attendance will decline. My question about market calls concerned the value of adding to market calls. Even yesterday in our room the plan was to short rallies, specifically one recommendation was to short a little every 20 points (Dow) in a rally. (Not a newbie idea.) The worst case of someone following that "CALL" Was a trader who took that idea to mean "Bet the ranch" that the market would sell off. It did. But this trader who shorted 6 contracts with a $5,000 account lost big time and can't trade any more. Some say he lost because of my BAD CALL. Others might say bad money management. The lesson is that not everyone makes money on a GOOD CALL. Lots of other considerations apply. People who sign up just for the PURETICK CALLS are in for a nasty surprise. Those who sign up for a career opportunity should be expected to work. There are people on this site who make trading calls (some pretty good). If I just repeated those calls to the +100 people in my room, would I expect everyone to make a fortune? Probably not. Not because the calls are bad---the traders may find tons of ways to find a way to lose money. Other traders could trade any decent methodology. Successfully, Alex L.

What's wrong with your website, Mr. Rennick? Did it make a bearish call this afternoon and blow the server?
Hey Bill, welcome back. RFT issued a bearish call at 2:07PM on NDX (nasdaq 100). We change clothes quickly from bull to bear and viceversa. Go with the winners!
