Off topic posts:
I know this is like the pot calling the kettle black. God only knows on how
many times I've gone off topic. And how many flame wars I've started.
But do you guys realize what a wonderful resource this list could be? There
are several very talented and experienced people on this list. If we can
harnest their collective knowledge, do you realize how much money we could
make instead of wasting time on chasing philosophical issues? Peter W. Aan
posted a couple days ago. Michael Tepper made a few posts some days ago. Do
you realize who they are? These guys are top notch talent in the futures
trading business!! Then there's Bob Fulks!! And Mark Brown!! I say we leech
their collective knowledge and use it to make money!! :-)
And then there are others I know of who do nothing but lurk. And some others
were chased off last year. And I'm not talking about vendors like Tom DeMark
or Michael Mermer. Sidney V. Gold comes to mind. This guy was the head of
Equity Derivatives at Salomon Brothers. He was a founding member of the
CBOE. He's in "The New Market Wizards", pages 22-23 (he hired the "market
wizard" being interviewed.) . In Michael Lewis' book, "Liar's Poker" (I
forgot the exact title, but it was the first book,not the second.), he's the
guy who said to that training class that they were lower than whale shit.
Anybody who's involve in the professional trading community in NYC knows
him. Anyone who survived more than 20 years at Solly, much less thrived
there, has got to know something.
And I know of two others who have yet to post to this list but are lurking.
Until they do post, I'll keep their names private.
Sorry for my rant. I just had to get it off my chest.
