My Dear Colleague,

Not that it has any bearing whatsoever on my right to publish my position on certain issues at SI, but I am not getting off to any start here. It appears you are. Please refer to my profile. I have been here several years - quite a bit longer than your Brandon.

I have seen enough of your friend to establish certain views. I leave you with the following e-mail, presented in its entirety, which Brandon sent to Stock Operators early this morning. [His surname I have deleted, as I respect his right to not have his full identity revealed here without his consent.] In it, he implies he is accepting illegal payments from brokers. If that is the case, his site will not remain standing much longer. If not, the mere fact that he states he has been approached by them, and has neglected to bring this information to the authorities, speaks volumes.

Sincerely,

Olivier L. F. Asser

Olivier,

In all your rants about your higher ethics and integrity, I am reminded of going out on a friday night, getting drunk as hell and then spending half the day on saturday trying to convince my mother I did not do that. What I find is that in most cases a person of integrity will allow others to tell of that intergrity and not shout it out themselves. I myself am involved in the daytrading industry, and much of what you say is indeed true. I will say that your state-
ments about MBTrading offering payment for order flow are flat out bullsh[**].
As I stated, I own a daytrading site and have over 2000 paying members, so I have tend to talk to everyone now and again, and MBTrading is the only broker out there who will not pay me commissions. This happens to be one of the reasons that I promote them, with out getting 1 penny from them..because they have shown integrity..not just yelled and screamed about how much they have. Anyway,
its late so I should sign off since I have some trading to do.
