What's the skinny on Generic trading

  1. I can't speak for Bob, but I'm pretty sure he can do whatever he pleases...my personal opinion is that he has planning this a long time.

    He and my brother speak from time to time, and respect each other as businessmen....

    Although I don't trade with them, I know one of the managers of the Boca office. He is a trader himself and is probably one of the top ones today. They have a lot of talented people working there, environment is very good, and everyone is very friendly.

  5. Generic was not as competitive commission wise as

    some of the other firms ...

    perhaps their traders are willing to give more profits
    to the firm as the info they get from Myer is worth it?

  7. To be sure, Steve Schonfeld has a very strong reptutaion and Firm...and I respect both he and his Firm. The primary difference is that they chose the "employee" model primarily over the years, and therefore they are in a different segment of our business.

    Things change, as we all know.
