With widely publicized stories about Goldman raking in $50 million per day, trading outfits are rushing and racing to get Joe Sixpack equipped with a Hi-Fi Robot Trading setup.
Here's an "old school" trading floor:
Now we have a new type of trading floor:
With millions unemployed, other bucket shop companies are now trying to reel in Joe Sixpack, so he too can become a Hi-Fi trader. Ran into this ad the other day, an automated Program Robot trading platform for FX:

PRICELESS!!
If I get in REALLY big trouble with this, will the Fed bail me out?
I want the co-located version!
those three in lingerie are the IT crew?
They are in charge of Flashing.
lol
The truly priceless part is that if you search job sites, there are a lot of "WANTED" ads for quants to develop hi-frequency trading programs.
Hmm, must be GS competitors.
Just an hour ago, I noticed that a tech recruiter I had worked with in the past was looking for science folks for the development of high frequency trading algos! Not a move I would recommend to anyone right now ....
Brilliant!
This reminds me of the South Park underpants gnomes
Phase one....collect underpants
Phase two..... ?????
Phase three...... Profit
you're phucking killing this old man robo.....
i presume you are saving something special for that big old cow abby joseph cohen???????? or how about them goldman wives and their bitching about waiting in line as reported by ny post, now picked up by the obama messiah cult at Huffpo, who detest wall st, much to the chagrin of obama's henchmen??
keep the hits coming!
i drove all the way to new york last week and co-located my dell laptop next to the stock exchange. made it back to california yesterday and am ready to make 50 million a day now. i just have to finish setting up my modem and im ready to compete with GS. wish me luck :))
Good stuff, RT!
Now I see why CSCO ended up today after last night.
Abby J says today its a new bull mkt- yep, its been her all along, decked in black leather, nails and spikes, behind the Green Door, directing those fembots as they crack the whips on the tatooed gameboys. You'd never guess from her sedate demeanor on CNBC
What, no lingerie shots of Mary Shapiro?

Incidentally, ticker PCS landed on my radar today. I'll be keeping an eye on that one....already started a position $8.80-8.90

I have been trying to stay off the CNBC Crack-pipe for the past several weeks and have been reasonably successful IMO, cuttng my time watching/listening that shit channel from 12 hours a day to less than 45 minutes per day. However, for the few times I tuned in today I was yet gain amazed at those idiots giving a massive amount of attention to the TWITTER outage....meanwhile, over on Bloomburger, they were focusing on numerous actual market related issues and topics.....silly Bloombuger
Watching CNBC daily is the most accurate guide of trader sentiment, so I would pay attention if I could full time.
Pretty mixed bag right now, cheerleaders are all bullish like they usually are, but the "technicians" are all squealing about the coming "correction"....
I hear ya....
Lots of folks are hedging themselves, warning about "the coming correction." Problem is, many of these same dingle-berries have been warning about "a correction", first at 7,000, then 7,500, then at 8,000 and again at 8,500 (you get the idea).
What happens if we don't get a 1,500-2,000 point correction? Will these same worry warts, that also missed the entire 2003-2008 equity gangbang, just continue to warn the correction is immanent? Who knows....I sure don't.
Or, if we do get a 2,000 wash out or protected drop....do you think they will then be "ready to buy"....I don't.....these were the same clowns that thought S&PeePee 666 was still too expensive and that any stock that was priced at $1.00 was going out of business.
I'll just continue to buy shit that is underpriced and sell it at a profit....wash, rinse, repeat.
Not exciting....one could even say a little boring.....but that's the way I roll.
Also.....now I know why RON ISANNA failed as a hedge hog and was shit-canned by Stevie Cohen.....Isanna is an absolutey retarded dickhead.
Actually, that's insulting to retards
Damn that guy is stoopid....first he says he went to 100% cash on Monday, then he says he took a little off the table....which is it you jerk.....UGH!!!! Curse you CNBC!!!
This is a joke right? Know pi to at least 10 decimal points...

flag@whitewash.gov - Misleading bonus information. Should state the official policy of the new Pay Czar; no bonuses for Hedge Fund jobs.
They are using C#? You must be kidding. For a lean mean smoking app you should just use C. C++ will get you way more coders but ... SQL server on windose. Those guys are doomed.
no wonder they are being frontrunned by the likes of GSux
I can sum up this job in one sentence:
"Wanted: plausible warm body to turn worthless client desires into $300/hour consultant fees"
I may be understating the conversion factor here.
* no front running experience necessasry - will train.
this software ought to come with instructions on how to set up automatic withdrawls from your bank account!
Robo, always a pleasure.
Thanks
Whatever that girl in the pink dropped, hope she doesn't think someone is going to pick it up for her.
NO ONE PICK IT UP!!!
Work for me girl....
Apparently the Goldman Sachs code got out into the wild. Market manipulation here we come. GS is going down!
I have heard reports that this thing is only really reliable on the "World of Warcraft Gold Bot" setting. Buy this program and you will have that new mount in no time. This is going to push an entire industry of Chinese workers into the streets. How is that for manipulation?
This is actually a good thing.
If at least one million retail accounts run trading bots like this, they can become a massive market force. Having a million bots place buy/sell orders every second -- even if it’s a small size like 200-300 shares -- is going to be crazy and interesting to watch. (if they trade every second, thats 12B shares per min LOL)
Someone should send a copy of this shit to angry printer destroy man and let him beat the shit out of this program.
I dig your style, man.

Can I get this software for my XBox 360?
Gridbot.
So THAT's where Sergey went! He's aiming to be the Billy Mays of trading bots.
I wonder how many people have grid bot like things already. If any of you are familiar with DDOS attacks or massive spam email sent by a botnet, you can imagine all kinds of buy and sell orders coming from all over the globe, adding up to no small effect, perhaps some of them from stolen credit card numbers on russian mp3 download sites that sell you a song for a dime. I'm not sayin... but I'm just sayin.
No problem, until the sell orders seriously outweigh the buys. Then you have the makings of every crash ever seen. Only a matter of when, IMHO.
P.S. the bots didn't fare so well in the last few crashes. By the time it's time to sell, it's too late. You have to be ahead of the game. Lack of liquidity kills, and will kill again, until we swallow the pills of fiscal responsibility. Hasn't happened since Volker, and there's no hope in sight with the current admin. Reality will set in around DOW 5000, I just hope it happens before the 2010 elections.
It uses chaos theory though, so it must work.
