    Ron Paul What do you guys think?

    What arrogance! You Americans are running around the world telling people how to govern themselves and what policies to choose. But you are not able to accept any criticism yourself. This just shows weakness, instead of debating my points, you are using "shoot the messenger" tactics. What the...

    Ron Paul What do you guys think?

    0) No I am not, nor do I ever want to. There is nothing attractive in American citizenship to me. 1) What might that be? I do not wish ill for the US, and definitely prefer them over Commie China in leading the world. 2) So as you can't debate my points, that is what you resort. A bit...

    Ron Paul What do you guys think?

    Wrong wrong wrong! It is amazing how many people do not understand this immigration issue. Immigration has been one of the greatest strengths of the US. Together with free-market capitalism it has let your country to grow and prosper. The US needs more, much more immigrants, not less. Who...

    Cramer Sucks Up To Ron Paul

    Strange indeed. Cramer has always been shouting for easier money, and now he suddenly turns to Paul who advocates the exact opposite. Seems he (Cramer) is above all a populist. Now he is sniffing a trend for Paul, and trying to get on board.

    All upside from here..

    Did you really manage to bottom-tick this first downleg? Amazing! Anyway I applaud your decision. It seems you have kept your word of retiring if a bear market begins.

    Real poll of who you will be voting for

    Or will he just be assassinated? I am quite surprised at his success in gathering money. How can his poll numbers be so low with all that money? And please, I don't want to hear any conspiracy theories.

    What is the TA of a Bear Market?

    We have just entered bear market territory according to the Dow Theory. "The Dow Jones industrial average continues to probe its important August low of 12,845.78. A close below 12,845.78 would confirm a similar breakdown in the Dow Transports and shift the Dow Theory into the bearish camp...

    This bull market is finished?

    Not before you quite this board, as you promised. When do you wake up from the denial?

    Futures commissions

    Jack, I guess you are right. Maybe there is too little competition in this business, or perhaps too many customers who don't care what they pay. Just as I didn't still a few weeks ago. I have been asking for something close to $3, but the best I receive can hardly compete with IB. So it seems...

    Futures commissions

    Ah, GC what a good idea! I have been occasionally trading ESTX but never thought about it from the cost-perspective. IB fees are indeed higher, but total cost per contract above 1000/mth is only €0,90 for ESTX. In dollars this is about $1.35, compared to $1,81 in the e-minis, i.e. 25% cheaper...

    Futures commissions

    Thanks for the links. Can you perhaps explain why do these firms operate in this manner? Why do commissions vary between customers based on something else than trading volume? I just don't understand it.

    Futures commissions

    I have now asked a few firms for their rate offers. NONE can even offer what IB has published on its website. So I don't quite understand how people can get these $3/rt commissions. The offers I got don't even come close. I don't quite understand why can't these firms publish their rates. Why...

    $52k gone from my IB account. What next, sue IB?

    I'm glad for you. Just wondering if they would have ever resolved this problem, unless you came here to make it public. Seems you had to push them here at every step.
