some of you guys are so cynical and negative, it's a wonder you can find any reason to get up in the morning.

Me and my gf are flying in to HNL January 6 2004, but she is 23 and can't rent the car under the package she got. Her flight arrives at noon, mine at 10:30PM, so I can rent the car when I arrive, but in the mean time, I would like her to be able to check into the hotel and get to the beach...

I was out of town and missed another day downloading the CME data.. Friday 8/22/2003. If someone has it could you upload it to the yahoo briefcase account? The yahoo account is userid: cmedata password: elite1 thanks!

Not bond futures, but rather the bonds themselves. I wasn't actually considering funding a mortgage that way.. I am just trying to figure out how the mortgage banks do it, and figure out how it works in general. If you short/long the bond futures, you don't pay/receive interest payments as far...

Is it possible to short bonds (not bond futures) in your account and have the cash available to withdraw and use? I got thinking about this while trying to figure out how, exactly, a mortgate bank can tie the loan rate to the 30 year t-bond.. maybe it is just correlated.. The way I figure...

I won't be commuting.. as long as I have broadband I can trade from home. You gave some excellent info, pretty much what I wanted, which is an overview of some different areas. Since I will need to get out of the apartment often, sounds like Belltown is in first place, followed by...

Maybe we are just arguing semantics like you said.. I would say that the account suffered a small drawdown, and then went positive. I view it as my total net worth at any given instant (mark-to-market down to the tick), as if I were to suddenly need to liquidate everything. Holding through a...

Your point is well taken about the margin requirements, and that is a real consideration in some cases, especially if you are trying to maximize returns by using full margin.. I think the YM broken trades scenario is not the norm, and should not be weighted as such. i.e. in reality that will...

This is one of the most intelligent and relevant discussions I've seen in a while.. I think that was the point.. not that you would be using incorrect risk management, but that you would be using *different* risk management for no apparent reason other than that your last trade (albeit...

the difference is, nobody breaks those trades.

Looking to get an apartment in Seattle.. Any suggestions where is a reasonable place to live for a single guy? Where is the nightlife and clubs? I remember a few places downtown by Key Arena. Is downtown a decent area to live? or do you need to live farther out? Is "international district"...
