Quote context

[...]

- Well, I can see that you get your information ahead of NY.

- Every once in a while a major change happens and we have a 7 second advantage to put a buy order, a sell order, into that computer in New York just before that data from Tokyo comes pulling in right behind it.

- Not much time.

- No, we have to be ready, we have to have the money, we have to know what that information means, and we have to move like grease lightning.

- But boy, when it works, it is beautiful!

- Seven seconds, ah? I don't see how you can do it.

- Machines! Machines! I've got a whole room full of machines back here. Y'wanna see'em? Come here.

Top rated lines from this movie

A visitor... A very attractive young lady. She says she's your mother. -Send her up.

I've seen women like you before, baby. You're double tough, you're sharp as a razor, and you get what you want, or else.

But you don't make it work forever. Sooner or later, the lightning hits. And I'm not gonna be around when it hits you.

Not partners. That's your first lesson. Cut your score in half, right down the middle. Worse than that, you take a partner, you put an apple on your head and hand the other guy a shotgun.

Stop getting up nights, man. You too could learn to dance. All you need is a magic step. Simple as one-two-three.
