I have big swinging dick pro trader clients with $4M New Edge accounts and I have clients with $15K Crossland accounts who work full time jobs or run businesses during the day - so please don't paint me as a snake oiler. I never claimed that my smaller account clients were deriving all of their...

When I traded commercial energy in the 90's, we employed professional meteorologists and consultant meteorology firms FWIW. ( Trying to anticipate Heating and Cooling Loads )

OK, for your own edification please add the term "domestic agricultural commodities" to my previous comments for your pleasure. I guess tropical agricultural commodities are "softer" than domestic grains. Although a coffee bean might compare to a corn kernel in terms of hardness.

My impression the past few years is that trading the softs strictly from the aspect of historical "seasonal" biases has been mixed at best.

Combinations of "all of the above". We are looking at all or most possible pair, butterfly, and condor combinations along the entire curve where there is open interest above 3K. This gets tough and can limit our combination potential with some products where there may be only eight or nine...

I have fielded some questions from ET Members about learning to spread trade while simultaneously holding down a full time job. I have some clients who have done it successfully. One in particular, a licensed professional Civil Engineer in California, started training with me in 2010. After...

First place to look, IMHO, is the Educational Resources section for the grains in the CME website. Many grain spreaders use fundamentals and basis differentials to determine which spreads to trade. This, of course, would include commercials. You can also use price-based models and...

1. You don't require automation and "autospreading" software to be a successful spread trader. In fact, most of my clients probably use CTS T4. 2. Contango and Backwardation model very well based on price action alone thank you very much. Great signal and entry confirmation - I love crude...

My clients have been making real money in live markets consistently since I started this endeavor about four years ago. We use a price-based model and system designed and refined over the years expressly for spreads. We "swing trade" or "position trade" since spreads are so inexpensive to...

Generally speaking, I only take on experienced traders as clients and teach them a niche specialty technique. I have had some inquiries from individuals who have not traded before, and that scenario does not work for me. I need something to work with and build on.

RTS and ORC are about $18K per month or some ridiculous amount like that last time I heard.

I think your benchmark will be the TT Pro license and the CQG Trader license rates. They are proven, and are about $1800 per month.

I have a few clients I took on in the early spring who are currently transitioning to the live markets, so I would be able to get a few qualified and motivated traders into the upcoming training rotation if that is something you're serious about. I would be happy to have a conversation with...

This says it all in the OP's posted article: "At R.J. O'Brien, the largest independent U.S. futures brokerage, a handful of customers specifically request open outcry execution in an effort to support the pits, said Jimmy Connor, senior vice president for the firm. They switch to...

You are obviously trading very small timeframes manually, and it has been well documented here on ET about the travails of pitting your mouse and DOM order ticket against automated HFTs. You are not used to drawdowns, and the HFTs have introduced a great deal of turbulence into the...

Since you are applying a mathematical equation to a pool of sampled data, does statistical analysis = TA enough to muddy the water ? A stochastic or a moving average are easily defined equations...
