Victor Niederhoffer (Victor Niederhoffer)

In April 2006 of the year Victor Niederhoffer (Victor Niederhoffer) appeared at an evening at New York's St. Regis, where about 300 America's leading fund managers. Walking under the gilded candelabra in a lavender blazer, he felt, that again rose to the top of success. 1980-90s. Niederhoffer has built himself a huge fortune and a reputation as one of the most prominent hedge fund managers in the United States.. But he was ruined by an excessive love of risk.: before the Asian financial crisis, he played for the rise in Thai stocks, and during the crisis - to increase the Standard index&Poor’s 500, using uncovered options on the index. When the markets crashed, Niederhoffer lost everything overnight - $ 130 million fund and almost all of his own savings. It seemed, life dealt him a crushing blow, however, he managed to overcome the path up the second time. Speaking to financiers, honoring him in St. Regis, Niederhoffer stressed, how highly he appreciates the “difficult and courageous” decision to reward him after, how it crashed once.

for Russian friends

for that, so that you have a better idea, what is the stock market in Ukraine.
below is our most liquid paper Ukrnafta. consider, what about the opening of a new exchange (Ukrainian exchange) liquidity increased by orders of magnitude (in the plural). on the 5-minute chart, vertical lines – day separators, the system does not build anything until there are no deals, поэтому дни различной "длинны".

well how?)
though, despite all this disgrace, it is quite possible to work with such a chart.
somewhat similar to the American thin stock, with <200k volume.
as you guess, the market is very fast and does not forgive mistakes))

Stock ticker

Ticker (English. ticker symbol) - short name of quoted instruments (Shares, bonds, indices) in stock information. Is a unique identifier within one exchange or information system. Used for that, so as not to constantly print in the bulletins the full name of securities or other objects of trade. A short name is usually one to six characters long and is assigned to a security when it is listed. Capital letters of the Latin alphabet are traditionally used.. These are usually abbreviations or short names. (International Business Machines — IBM), abbreviations or truncations of names (Microsoft — MSFT, RAO UES of Russia - EESR). Numeric and alphanumeric tickers are commonly used on Asian exchanges, adapted for international trade. For example, Toshiba ticker on the Tokyo Stock Exchange - 6502.

FORTS RTS has become a KITCHEN

It is high time for the management and employees of the RTS exchange to be prosecuted for disrupting trading and manipulating quotes..
In America, they would get fucked in full for this. But in Russia, the future meravian fenance center, you can do whatever. FFMS turns a blind eye to this chaos.

Here you can do whatever you want – if you want, you can toss ballots in a disproportionate amount for the desired party, if you want, you can wear shoulder straps, plump, drive in the opposite lane, shoot down pregnant women or just ram other cars with people. You can take subordinate military personnel and go to solve personal issues. Or you can simply take away the cargo at customs by declaring it contraband. You can kill Russian soldiers and become the president of the republic in the Russian Federation. You can fly in a helicopter and hunt Red Book animals. You can still steal the federal budget for tens of millions of dollars., pay a fine of thousands of rubles, and with a suspended sentence and fresh capital to get a job as mayor in another city.
Everything is possible here for money. And with power and money in general, everything, everything, everything.

Briefly speaking. In the morning, trading on FORST RTS did not open again. Of course, they did not open for technical reasons..
Hmm, for what reasons they still cannot open. It was impossible to withdraw and submit applications. But many saw in their glasses how quotes were running, as if the bidding is underway. Moreover, the decrease / increase in prices reacted to the MICEX and Dax. Year, one and a half ago, on the chart of a futures on ind.rts, a few minute candles once popped up a quote before trading. Many joked that it was from the future.. At the close, the chart plotted exactly the same candles for the formation and price – “prediction” came true.

Here I asked a question to the exchange. http://forum.rts.ru/viewtopic.asp?p=77458 But I think, like everyone else in this country, they will let the brakes go and the topic will be deleted, how admins have done it more than once.

Exchange questions
1. Whose placed orders we saw in the order book before the opening of trading 10.55
(these quotes have been seen by many bidders. I wrote down some of the quotes on the saw and will post it later.)

2. How could they get into the order book if the exchange did not work.
(it doesn't matter yesterday or today, what were they doing there?)

shl.
my IMHO
These are the orders of the RTS quotation robot, providing liquidity in the order book. because. decrease and increase in prices reacted to the movement of the MMVB / SIPI / DAC index.
That is why with Troika as a former Market Maker of this instrument (futures on the rtc index) no new contract was signed. Because RTS has created its own robot, and MM no longer needs services. This robot can do whatever you want. Want up- want to go down. Any quote.

Today RTS was openly burned and showed everyone, what a robot, who constantly played with orders in glasses, who extinguished all movements and threw applications this is their robot. RTS holds competitions for the LPI , identifies strategies, chooses something for his robot. RTS decided to cut coupons itself – she is so greedy.
RTS dropped to the level of the second-rate forex office RTS – KITCHEN.

Demotivators about the Exchange

I decided to write a Saturday post on the now popular topic Demotivators about the Exchange. Watch and enjoy . Many pictures, traffic !!!

Rules for trading the first month on the NYSE

It is very difficult to start trading on the stock exchange and your primary task is not to lose money. I decided to outline a couple of simple but effective rules for trading in the first month on the NYSE. Position size : 100 Shares (no more) Loss limit per day : 20-25$ Risk in the deal : 10C maximum risk in a trade Number of simultaneously open positions: 1 position

Completing trading on the MICEX

Unfortunately, time does not allow me to trade on two exchanges at the same time, so trading on the MICEX will have to be left. Maybe later, when there are fewer cases, I will resume, in the meantime, temporarily suspend. Compared to trading on the NYSE, the MICEX is somehow boring to trade and does not like. There is not such a large selection of stocks, no feeling doing 1% from the deposit in the transaction. So I will throw all my strength on my native NYSE.
