Scam Dogs and Mo-mo Mamas: Inside the Wild and Wooly World of Internet Stock Trading
Scam Dogs and Mo-mo Mamas: Inside the Wild and Wooly World of Internet Stock Trading
A burrito maker and bon vivant called Tokyo Joe A very big textile-coatings salesman named Big Dog A bankrupt heating contractor who styles himself as Georgia Bard Meet the new leaders of the twenty-first-century stock market-each an Internet stock-trading legend. Each a cyber-guru in the vanguard of the millions of trading and talking about stocks on the Internet. Each with legions of eager followers and determined foes, and the ability to make stock prices leap-or plummet-at the click of a mouse. Colorful, charismatic, and often outrageous, they are reshaping the way we invest and how Wall Street works. Scam Dogs and Mo-Mo Mamas is their story-the first journalistic look at these market wizards and their brave new world. Veteran Wall Street Journal reporter John Emshwiller has entered that world and brought back a lively, entertaining tale, documenting their rise, the culture they’ve created, their intertwined lives, and their power, influence and turf battles. Pitted against the cyber-gurus, and a major part of this story, are the self-appointed truthsayers who seek to expose their excesses, Web officials who try to keep order in cyberspace, and enforcement officials from the SEC, who are beginning a government crackdown. Though these Internet voyagers rarely meet or even share a spoken word, their lives and passions have all met in cyberspace. There, they befriend or battle each other in pursuit of fame and fortune. They operate in a realm without substance that can be powerfully, even frighteningly, real. There, it is as easy to be entertained as it is to be fleeced. Of course, if you are very good and very lucky, you might just strike it rich. Welcome to the wild and woolly world of Internet stock trading-where the rules are still being written, nothing is as it seems, and everything is up for grabs.

An Introduction to Algorithmic Trading: For Stock Trading on the Nasdaq and New York Stock Exchange (Wiley Trading) Reviews
An Introduction to Algorithmic Trading: For Stock Trading on the Nasdaq and New York Stock Exchange (Wiley Trading)
Interest in algorithmic trading is growing massively – it’s cheaper, faster and better to control than standard trading, it enables you to ‘pre-think’ the market, executing complex math in real time and take the required decisions based on the strategy defined. We are no longer limited by human ‘bandwidth’. The cost alone (estimated at 6 cents per share manual, 1 cent per share algorithmic) is a sufficient driver to power the growth of the industry. According to consultant firm, Aite Group LLC, high frequency trading firms alone account for 73% of all US equity trading volume, despite only representing approximately 2% of the total firms operating in the US markets. Algorithmic trading is becoming the industry lifeblood. But it is a secretive industry with few willing to share the secrets of their success. The book begins with a step-by-step guide to algorithmic trading, demystifying this complex subject and providing readers with a specific and usable algorithmic trading knowledge. It provides background information leading to more advanced work by outlining the current trading algorithms, the basics of their design, what they are, how they work, how they are used, their strengths, their weaknesses, where we are now and where we are going. The book then goes on to demonstrate a selection of detailed algorithms including their implementation in the markets. Using actual algorithms that have been used in live trading readers have access to real time trading functionality and can use the never before seen algorithms to trade their own accounts. The markets are complex adaptive systems exhibiting unpredictable behaviour. As the markets evolve algorithmic designers need to be constantly aware of any changes that may impact their work, so for the more adventurous reader there is also a section on how to design trading algorithms. All examples and algorithms are demonstrated in Excel on the accompanying CD ROM, including actual algorithmic examples which have been used in live trading.

Introduction to Options Trading Reviews
Introduction to Options Trading
Most average investors buy and sell stocks thinking that is the only way they can make money in the capital markets. Trading options on those same stocks gives everyday investors opportunities to get a “bigger bang for the buck,” meaning that you can make more money by trading options on the same stock. Where a good profit in a stock trade may mean a 10 – 15% profit, an option on the same stock may yield 40 – 50% profit on the same move – for less money! This video outlines all of the information you need to start using options to jump-start your investing success today!
