LOL. .....hmmmm. I suppose it does come out cheaper by the pound.:) "But when you get there tell my wife that two years in prison camp is roughly equivalent to four years of marriage and I'm glad to be free of them both." Brad Pitt as Heinrich Harrer in the movie 'Seven Years in...

Very nice market forecast, BB. Hope you were able to make some serious cash off of this great call.:) Happy trading.

Ditto. Seems like the OptionsXpress folks have taken over their new acquisition. :)

Just received an e-mail from Open E Cry that it has been acquired by OptionsXpress. I have been a customer of Open E Cry pretty much since they opened in 2003. It is probably one of the best futures brokers I have used - and I have used nearly all the major brokers over the last twenty...

Petrol may be cheaper but the aftertaste is probably a lot nastier.:) Thanks a lot buddy for these updates. Always more useful to read actual first-hand accounts about a new place. BTW, would you know if there is any chance that trading on CME from Dubai may also become a viable option in...

Hello Dogfish, Did you make the move to Dubai? Those of us who have been following this thread would find it very useful if you could tell us a bit about your experience so far with life in Dubai and your trading firm. Thanks. Any other Eurex traders who have moved to Dubai recently...

Ditto. The tick and volume charts are still messed up too. :( I have been a happy OEC customer for many years. Must say that I, too, am getting tired of these perpetual software updates and upgrades. Wish they would limit themselves to one upgrade every 6 months and do a lot more...

I agree completely - they are a classy outfit. FWIW, I traded through Redsky for nearly two years without a single problem. Very efficient and courteous customer service. Happy Trading.

It is nearly back to normal now. I have been using them for the last several years and have had very few problems with their data. Somehow the last couple of months have been a little less perfect. I hope they can resolve these little hiccups as they are still my favorite quote vendor.

My IQFeed data for stock index futures is lagging by several minutes this morning. My other datafeeds and brokerage platforms are functioning normally. Is anyone else having this problem?

saxon22, You have been getting some very good advice here on this thread. Even when you manage to get out with a profit, this is still a sub-optimal way to trade because you are taking a large undefined amount of risk for a very small return. This was pointed out to you several months ago...
