Darren, nice post. Not only taking pot-shots at me, but attacking the credibility of a guy (smith) you know nothing about..classy. Softball review...the numbers speak from themselves. Informal chat session...who will be available...probably only myself and Ross from MbTrading, perhaps Ken from Momemtum Trading. Obviously if you know all the idiosyncracies and best ways of using SOES, SNET, ECN, Superdot, Raes, PACE, etc., then, heck, don't come. But I think a lot of traders don't know and would like to get some feedback or advice on execution systems, etc., from individuals who deal with a far greater number of trades, scenarios, experiences during the day. ie. I guarantee you Ross Ditlove deals with as many trades in one day as you might deal with in several months, the bizarre, freaky, strange issues as well, those that have true value at such a session. re:"Will Henry Kravis be available? George Soros? Edwin Lefevbre? Joe Kernan? " These guys are tremendous investors, incredibly knowledgeable, way out of our leauge, but I am not sure they would know the ins-and-outs of the various execution systems, which I would assume, since this is a trading oriented thread, is pretty critical. I always find it interesting how people can be offensive on threads like this because they arent face to face, how someone will attack someone that they would never do in person. Darren, I regularly contribute on this thread and yes,while I definately will drop my firms name from time to time, I think it is done respectfully and in 100% honesty. I also take the time to answer any and all messages that many of this threads readers send to me about any and all issues. I feel I have the right to put WHATEVER I want up on this thread. That some objective third party did a great comparison of various firms and had some great things to say about yamner is totally relevant to this thread. That Gary Smith has a disciplined, rigid trading style and results to back it up with should be reading for many SI visitors. But, you dont like it, and the onslaught comes. Face to face, you and I would probably be freinds, as most of us share interests and take pleasure from the market and technology that those NOT in the markets could care less about. Darren...what ever floats your boat..keep doing your thing! Regards, Steve@yamner.com
