Doctors are not servants of their patients, they are traders like everyone else in a free society and they should bear that title proudly considering the crucial importance of the services they offer.

Early in the morning before school started he would have high school seniors come in to the trading floor and play cards with him, ... poker, bridge -- any sort of game where there's a strategy involved, the way that was remembering the cards, where he could watch people's minds and see how they thought and see how analytical they were. And those who were good players got hired as traders.
Lisa Endlich
That's part of my job, to make sure we don't stab each other in the back. China is very astute. They are world traders, and they've got a willing buyer out there.
David Towne
These days, you've got day traders working from home, auto mechanics and grad students, who think they have it figured out. In the past, these (types of trends) have ended badly.
Ralph Wanger
Joe has demonstrated great ability in communicating the system objectives of our researchers and developers to our traders. As we continue to expand our proprietary product offering, this will be instrumental in ensuring that our day-to-day trading operations personnel understand our objectives so we maintain exceptional performance levels.
Irwin Berger
There was a little bit of panic selling when trading started. A lot of traders are identifying bargains. But money flows are still negative by virtue of a lot of selling.
James Niosi
If we get there (Dow 10,000) really quickly, it will back off, because the traders have been caught by surprise. They have been shorting the market, because technically it should be going down, so it will back off rather quickly. If it takes longer to get up there, then, I think, it will hold.
Dodge Dorland
Trend is the friend in this market and certainly traders wouldn't like to bet against the commodity stocks in this environment.
Guy Hutchings
Bonds will probably stay lower as traders may prepare for the auction. Bonds also will be capped by gains in stocks, along with rising U.S. Treasuries yields.

Robert Sasaki
Traders figured out that the odds of the hurricane having a major impact are quite low.
Bill O'grady
There were several possible explanations: Either people had hidden them, killed them, eaten them or sold them off. The key to containing the virus is stopping movement of flocks, but traders may take advantage and offer people a low price to be rid of their birds.
Serge Verniau
These well-known name stocks have momentum. The money keeps flowing in. Those traders are unconcerned about the gold market.
Doug Myers
We don't attach too much significance to it whatsoever, although traders and other people in the market think there is more relevance to it.
Troy Angus
Shorter-term momentum traders are taking their profits right now, and longer-term investors are sitting on cash waiting for a better buying opportunity. The problem is, to get a better buying opportunity, prices have to drop lower.
Paul Cherney
Traders also didn't want the product to be too flashy. But it did have to feel like a precision instrument.
Robert Fabricant
It's a lot of educated guesses. On the scrap side of this business, they are horse traders.
Ray Wahlert
This was a prototypical Friday in that traders and investors weren't eager to carry any positions over the weekend and you saw fluctuations back and forth in the market. It will be tough to get a gauge on what Monday morning will look like.
Marty Cunningham
A lot of traders are aware that there will be a big intervention if the yen breaks through (below) 118. Right now the [Bank of Japan] scare is working.
Seijiro Takeshita
Also, with uncertainty about the direction of the U.S. economy, and a weaker dollar, that actually fares well for gold. A lower dollar makes it less expensive for traders overseas to exchange gold.
Amaury De Barros Conti
Generally we're looking pretty quiet - one of our traders just told me it's one of the quietest days he's ever seen.
Mark Cliffe
Short-term traders are disappointed after they'd hoped for a large upward revision.

Marty Cunningham
The OMS becomes the cockpit for the traders so they can move in and out of markets quickly.
Tom Driscoll
It's a pretty binary outcome that traders are facing on this one and there will be a lot of legal ink spilled over it.
Jake Newman
It's been a very active market. The biggest trading gains you see are of firms that cater to day traders, although we (also) have seen a big percentage increase quarter over quarter.
Blake Darcy
The situation is that foreign traders, who manage all the money, are putting Venezuela in the same bracket as Brazil.
Rafael Alcantara

Kevin Giddis
Traders were very active in Macquarie Bank, buying into the stock as it broke out of its recent downward trend.
James Foulsham
BHP opened stronger and continued to push higher throughout the day as traders scrambled to get on board as the stock continues to break record high after record high.
James Foulsham
It's a case of traders taking their bids off the board until the situation becomes clearer. Investors would rather buy stocks a bit later when there's a touch more certainty about the seriousness of the threat.
Paul Xiradis
Momentum traders will not want to sell -- if this month's trajectory continues, then gold will be at $568 by year-end and $649 by the end of February.
Paul Merrick
Twenty-year bonds have risen too far given the auction tomorrow. Traders are likely to try and back up the yield to closer to 2 percent for the auction.
Akihiko Inoue
The mood of the market is absolute nervousness and the mood of traders is absolute frustration. Because we're so oversold, I think we're ready for a trading bounce but there are just too many cross currents to balance right now.
Sam Ginzburg
Basically you've got a bunch of traders trying to outguess Mother Nature -- aswe also recently did with crude-oil futures and the two previous hurricanes.
Chris Kraft
Day trading isn't investing, it's at best speculating. Most traders will lose all of their money.
David Shellenberger
The meeting will bring together over 200 technical experts, investors, donors, NGO and government officials, who will discuss the role regional investors and traders can play in the development of southern Sudan.
Malei Nthiwa
I look at them as peers and I learn from them. We all do. They're friends that we've not yet met. They're enemies that we've not yet fought. They're traders that have not yet traded. You gotta love 'em. They're individuals and that's really the sole point of it all.
Chad Ginsburg
It appears that options traders are bracing for volatility in Heinz and the increase in call volume suggests that many are positioning for a move higher. This might be due to the acquisition talks, but also an earnings report due out before the opening bell on February 28.
Frederic Ruffy
The large skew indicates that the market is bracing for short-term volatility in Harley Davidson ahead of its earnings report, and the defensive put activity seems to suggest that some traders are concerned that the volatile move might be to the downside.
Frederic Ruffy
Traders are more focused on Hurricane Rita as this weather event could have a longer-term devastation on the infrastructure of our nation's oil industry's ability to provide energy to citizens.
John Person
I had the capital. He had the idea, ... The system worked out. Right away, professional traders started asking if they could join us. We made the decision back then to take the trading out to Main Street America.
Robert Bright
I think traders are quick to take profits right now, because what else is there that stocks can do for an encore in the short term? ... We're still in an uptrend, but the probability right now, from a technical standpoint, is that we're going to have a little more selling.
Peter Green
The market's in trouble, it really is. The market hasn't had a big sell off, we haven't had big down days -- we're just steadily and slowly selling off each and every day. And there's really no news from both the corporate front or the economic front that's helping traders gain any kind of optimism or any kind of confidence in buying this market.
Goran Yordanoff
I think we're going to see a correction and I think it's going to be painful. Day traders got killed [Monday]. They've been getting killed over the last four months. Maybe now they're going to step to the sideline . . . and maybe, they're not going back in.
William Roe
There was an accelerated move to the downside late last week -- traders were a little too aggressive in their short positions.
Dennis Smith
There is a new breed of traders. Some are young lads but they know the markets.
Richard Sharpe
The sell-off in oil damped demand for some metals yesterday in London and New York. Traders in China are worried there might be a chain reaction of funds selling metals to take profits.
Wang Zheng
Demand related to inflation and safe-haven fears has been driving gold. I particularly believe numerous gold traders are watching the Iranian situation with great interest, since it has both inflationary and safe haven implications.
Daniel Vaught
The DOE numbers are with range of expectations and traders could ignore the data.
Tom Knight
The most common bad habit I have seen in traders - good and bad ones - is the inability to react correctly to market action.
Larry Williams
The reason traders are jumping all over this is because Pershing Square Capital purchased almost 10 percent of Wendy's International shares to try to force it to sell off their Tim Hortons chain. The company is now doing that.
Jon Najarian
Traders normally try to use the supply story to push rates higher.
George Goncalves
After last week's sell-off a lot of people were caught underwater on positions. So after the market's bounce this morning, traders took it as an opportunity to lighten up on their positions . . . to buy back on some of their loss incurred Friday.
Mike Cloherty
If we get there really quickly, it will back off, because the traders have been caught by surprise. The have been shorting the market, because technically it should be going down, so it will back off rather quickly. If it takes longer to get up there, then, I think, it will hold.
Dodge Dorland
Traders remain extremely nervous about gasoline supplies, especially with the switch to ethanol nationwide.
Peter Beutel
Two weeks ago traders thought there was no chance. If you had asked me Thursday, I would have said less than a 50 percent chance (of a December hike), at best I would have said a 50-50 chance. Now it looks pretty likely.
Sung Won Sohn
Crude oil tumbled in the final minutes of trading as traders are taking an attitude that prices may not see a substantial gain based on supply disruptions from Hurricane Katrina.
John Person
We're oil traders now because currencies are trading so closely off oil. All the risk now is that the hurricane does not have all the negative effects for the U.S. economy.
Richard Franulovich
Traders believe at least for the short term, that the run will continue in the current environment. Commodities have opened the week stronger.
Harley Salt
With the Internet, the information divide between professional traders and individual investors has become very small.
Masatoshi Kikuchi
In the middle of a correction, the market seeks to find a bottom and a top -- some kind of range that it can operate in comfortably. So you'll get wide swings as traders try to feel out where's the top, where's the bottom, where's support, where's supply.
William Mattison
But because traders tend to trade so frequently, those aren't major disadvantages, ... And the advantage of being able to deduct all of your losses is very attractive.
Martin Nissenbaum
I think the big question on traders' minds now is: is this the beginning of the end? Is this the end of this long run-up?
Michael Boss
I've seen this a lot this year. All those day traders out there who mistakenly thought they'd be paying 20 percent, their foundation is rocked when I tell them how much they owe. I've been in the business a long time and I have to say this has been the screwiest year I've ever seen.
Beanna Whitlock
Traders are uncertain of the full effects Katrina will have on production.
Mark Chesterman
I think the positive tone has been reinforced this week. Going forward into next week, there's no doubt traders are starting to anticipate that the second half of the year is going to start to be a positive building point.
Joe Cangemi
There's certainly a demand for it (an interactive fund), if you consider the number of e-traders today. It's addressing the active Internet investor.
Bill Dougherty
The traders are for the most part are out. So we're just biding out time.
Michael Boss
The story of the current account deficit allowed traders and analysts to justify any currency prices.
Steve Pearson
A lot of the shares that had been the market favorites of late wore the brunt of the sell off today with traders closing down positions quickly.
David Land
Yes, the market developed a fear that employment would be stronger than it turned out to be, but it was still a pretty solid number, above economists' consensus forecast, so in general you're looking at recent economic numbers that have bond traders a little bit concerned.
John Canavan
Bonds recovered on technical buying, foreign bond traders were oversold and had to recover their positions.
Mario Zawadzki
The production increase is more than what traders were expecting. We are going to see some more output in non-OPEC countries such as Mexico and Norway, and the second quarter is typically a period of seasonal slower demand, so those all those factors will play into an easing in oil prices.
Jordan Horoschak
The defendants put their own interests ahead of their firms and their firms' clients by stealing valuable, confidential information and selling it to unscrupulous day traders.
Roslynn Mauskopf
Liquidity has generally gone from the market. I don't think traders would be particularly aggressive and strap additional risk on.
Robert Rennie
(Traders) usually bid the market up in the first week of September and then start clearing the decks for the September quarterly end.
Douglas Davis
Mountain men traveled in very large parties and trapped beavers in the Rocky Mountains, and every year they gathered in a rendezvous. That's where they would sell the hides to traders.
George Cole
We've always had periods when something came in vogue, ... This is different because of the Internet. It keeps on going and the riches just keep astounding everybody. All the traders that come up today naturally gravitate toward Internet stocks.
Yale Hirsch
I get 30 or 40 calls a day. Sometimes it's other traders; sometimes it's customers, collectors. And sometimes it's (Indian) artists.
Guy Berger
These applications are working with real-time data feeds, ... Our traders need millisecond response times.
William Conroy
They're probably geared more and being used more by traders, and one of the reasons is that they actually cost more than a similar, non- traded mutual fund. It's interesting that the need it's servicing is different from the one that's being promoted.
John Merrill
It could be that the traders got a tiny bit of power and that was judged to be way too much.
Nicholas Eberstadt
The market went down almost four weeks in a row in part on the February payrolls number with traders saying the economy is good, but we have no jobs.
Robert Long
Certain traders in gas and kerosene have tried to increase fuel prices.... The prices of liquefied gas and kerosene should stay at the same level.
Georgy Arveladze

Daisuke Uno
When the market is moving, it's like a magnet that draws money and traders to it.
Larry Young
Traders and investors alike both succumbed to the temptation to take profits in a variety of commodities that have made big price gains.
David Thurtell
Traders are most concerned about the Iranian issue, as the situation appears to be getting worse.
Tetsu Emori
Traders can navigate it quickly. But they depend on short codes and compound key commands. It's back to DOS. There's nothing intuitive about it.
Robert Fabricant
Although it has calmed down a little of late, the energy sector still has traders watching it very closely for opportunities and with the price of oil remaining quite choppy this seems set to continue.
David Land
They are now going back to banks, which have recently started re-hiring traders.
Saleem Siddiqi
With little in terms of fresh news or developments overnight, traders appear content to trade the U.S. dollar within its current ranges against the world's major currencies.
Alex Beuzelin
With bearish US statistics expected, traders have found a reason to take profit from a sharp gain since late last week on news about Nigeria and Ecuador.
Nahiro Niimura
An enormous number of small traders are involved in exporting Iraqi oil. Iraq is dealing with several hundred and some of those are not acting legitimately.
Jeremy Greenstock
What the heck are these traders talking about when they say this is going to be a quick and clean war? What does that mean?
Brooks Tucker
Some traders are locking in profits from their bets on a reduction in the yield difference. They may be thinking that the market has already priced in the likely level of Bank of Japan rate increases this year.
Norihisa Takao
Continued strength of commodity markets has been beneficial to the $A, but traders haven't been getting a lot of loving being long.
Robert Rennie
Oil prices dipped half a dollar as many traders looked to book profits, speculating that the previous price rally was an over-reaction to concerns that Iran could use oil as a weapon against the U.N..
Matthew Parry
It's Christmas in May for traders. This was the wrong decision, and we're all going to pay the price for it.
Preston Martin
The violinist must possess the poet's gift of piercing the protective hide which grows on propagandists, stockbrokers and slave traders, to penetrate the deeper truth which lies within.
Yehudi Menuhin
World oil prices jumped again this week as the price of crude oil traded above $63 per barrel. Seasonal maintenance being performed at gasoline refineries will temporarily limit gasoline production. The near future will probably continue to show lots of ups and downs, and traders react to news of almost any sort.
Don Lindsey
The CEOs believe the free-traders are going to prevail.
Nancy Mclernon
It was a bad number, and traders don't have anything else important to trade off today.
Armin Mekelburg
The public was looking for a year-end rally, but the smart money had their bets on the downside. Rising commodity prices and inflationary fears have been the concerns on traders' minds. The recent downtrend in stock index futures does not bode well for the first quarter.
Joseph Luizzi
The consensus among currency traders for a continuing weakening of the dollar is overwhelming.
Ashraf Laidi
Technical traders tend to hit the door at the same time because they all use the same type of speculative trading indicators. Who can stand up to them when that happens?
Frank Mcghee
The gold market is basically struggling to decisively overcome the $600 level. Until we see that, we may see some indecision on the part of traders on how to handle the market.
Dan Vaught
We have seen a lot of traders buying on pull backs but then taking small profits as the market recovers rather than sitting on their positions waiting for a big market move.
James Foulsham
Things got really heated up over this Iran thing, and traders hate leaving such big profits on the table for news that could change at any moment.
Kevin Kerr
So, that 36,000 contract swing going from a long to a short position moves the market. The specs are momentum traders and they like to use moving price averages.
Jason Ward
There's no meaning in a market if traders cannot sell or buy when they want.
Ryuta Otsuka
You get the impression traders are putting an awful lot of weight on the Fed Chairman stating there could be a pause but that this may not be the end of rate increases. We had conflicting economic data and that leaves traders with nowhere to go but the trend.
Don Kowalchik
The time for the announcement for the ETF is getting closer. Basically, the turnover is very small in silver because all players and traders are very nervous about the price at the moment.
Ellison Chu
We know what is in the market place, but we don't know what is in the forest. The markets in Asia are supplied with bear parts, especially in Southeast Asia. While bear numbers in Asia slide downward, bears in the Americas are being increasingly targeted by traders.
Elizabeth Kemf
Good day traders don't have big swings or big losing days. A really good day trader is very conservative and picks his spots closely.
