it depends on how you look at. if you are in the US you have to pay, which comes out to about 20% pro-rata, on 1256 contracts based on a 60/40 long/short term tax treatment. cfd's are tax free if you can get access to them abroad.. it depends on your citizenship and tax jurisdiction. most...

@AdrianHagh81 apologies about the common sense comment earlier. I should not have assumed that your base knowledge was at a given level.

I have a taken what is already know and publicly available and put it into a more sophisticated framework. of course, I cannot publicly disclose what i am really doing on a public forum. but all you are doing is repeating what I already said, the markets behave the same way did 100 years ago...

THAT IS a chicken or the egg question do u find the market you want to trade or the strategy? given what I wrote above about channel indexes, which is the major technical indicator I use to pick tops and bottoms when I look at things on a discretionary basis, I would find the market that has...

personally, I believe yes you can....but only if you get your TA to a point where you can execute it with a rule based approached.....achieving that is very difficult however. as I was explaining to someone in PM the other day: the reason i mention john murphy, technical analysis of the...

for small size, you are better off going cfd if you have access to them. If not, you need to first establish what your risk thresholds are, then just do a cross asset analysis on product tick value and volatility for that given product and match that up with your own risk parameters. questions...

To whom it may concern, allow me to introduce myself. While I do not know everything there is about trading and have embarrassed myself at times to get to where I am in my career, I have in depth knowledge about the markets that I am willing to share for free as a way to help...

I dont understand your question... If you want to trade bund bobl schatz fly, i think the ratio is 1-4-3...but then you also have to put in the pricing ratio....another example If you put in a heat vs wti crack spread 1 for 1, the price ratio is * 42 on the ho leg to turn from gallons to...

spot on

in the pursuit of objectivity, this is why bone needs to be given some slack by some of the posters on here about whether or not he is profitable. 9 guys could sit next to paul tudor jones and George soros, and still not be able to make it...it is a universal truth. as long as bone is...

stereo70, i am confused, is the course a tutorial on how to create customized spreads, program them into the autospreader? does it teach what is condor, fly, box spread or how to create different ratios to create a customized time series? if so, all that info can be found for free with hard...

If i had to recommend some tools for spreads and arbs -Get ez signal delayed for 50 usd -ask yourself first, why do you think that relationship or market anamoly exists -chart that anamoly in ez signal -charting a 1-2-1 fly just for the sake is a wasted effort -you have to have some...

I will answer here but afterwards we can chat via pm...dont want to undermine the theme of the thread. There were zero books that helped me and i have read plenty. Books teach theoretical product knowledge not profitiablity....the same as bone's course. i only learned through years of...
