SJB the II, I hope you have good dental records: "NITE who handles orders primarily for Etrade customers" [Another very wrong statement. Clearly you are retail centric in your thinking. NITE is the biggest player in Nasdaq stocks, bar none. They make over 60% of them. And I can assure you that the majority of it does NOT come from Etrade] "First you equate MASH, by calling it a market maker, with TRUE MMs such as GSCO, MLCO, SBSH and LEHM" [Yur talkin outcher ass again boy. these guys (the retail wirehouses, GSCO excepted) suck at execution and make money only for their proprietary accounts. In fact they suck so much that they created the market opportunity that made the wholesalers so big. They are hardly the "true MM's" as they don't stand up for their customers. And why talk about GSCO in the bags of shist you travelling in here, they don't even know of their existence.] "Name-calling and stupid commentary seem to be things yourself and Ms. Lee have very much in common. I personally am going to greatly enjoy watching a huge SKYM gap tomorrow morning.[Gee that'll be interesting on Sunday] "The intellectual dishonesty of the two [RU sure you're not on LSD?]of you is an insult to the intelligence of this site in general, and this thread in particular. Where did you come from? Never mind, I really would rather not know."[Reality is for people that cannot handle drugs] "Why not head back there and leave this thread to traders and investors who have a modicum of intelligence and trading ability. By your infantile,dishonest, mongoloid posts, both yourself and Ms. Lee have made it quite clear that you have neither." [There seems to be some circular name calling. While I am known for belittling my opposition, you do a weak attempt at it and don't even realize it] "I thought I was shocked before, but now I am appalled." [exactly my sentiments, boy] Now go read your Hardy Boys.

What is your angle,,what are you trying to accomplish, I have read your posts and they sound ridiculous..you have no idea what you are talking about as far as market maker activity..you can not possibly know who is doing what when I was on the bid I was usaully a seller and when I was on the offer I was usually a buyer..I could have two other firms represent me at different levels and noone would ver know my complete picture...If you could read what a market makler was doing than the ritualistic " suckers open" wouldnt work every time we set it up .. You have no idea what market makers are doing not even other market makers can get a complee idea of what each other is doing ..we are prohibited from discussing what we are doing or colluding with others about an particular strategy.. So what in Gods name are you talking about?

<<First you equate MASH, by calling it a market maker, with TRUE MMs such as GSCO, MLCO, SBSH and LEHM, then you admit what a poor trader you are by admitting an overnight hold in MZON Wednesday night, and then you attempt to prove your point by quoting literature emanating directly from an investment bank! You have sunk to new depths of naivete. I thought I was shocked before, but now I am appalled. I assume you follow investment bank upgrades and downgrades religiously as well? You make me laugh. As I said, a good joke at Christmas has its place. >> 1. I speak to Goldman almost every day, idiot. And they would be the first to tell anyone that while GSCO is a more powerful market maker than MASH, MASH is still a market maker, end of discussion. Your point is akin to saying that Netanyahu is not a political leader simply because he's not as well known a political leader as Bill Clinton, and that's simply ludicrous. 2. Sure I keep up with investment bank upgrades and downgrades though I often disagree with them. As a matter of fact, the 4 firms that you quote as "true" market makers, GSCO, MLCO, LEHM and SBSH all have huge investment banking business. 3. Yep, I take pride in my honesty by admitting that I probably made a mistake by selling only 1/2 of position in MZON on Wednesday. But you fail to realize that I still make a lot of money in those MZON trades. exchange2000.com Besides, I wasn't the only one who held some MZON overnight. Some of the very best traders (LizzardKing, for instance) did as well. We are decent traders, but we still are only human.
