MF Global and PFG had executives that made decisions to defraud customers. If you can't afford X_trader use something else, quit bitching. X_Trader free didn't make you a pro.

Hi, you might want to be careful saying this on a public forum.

You are wrong. I have been on this forum a while now and rarely see people who have been around as long as myself, I think this is because trading attracts people who read an article about a trader, thought, "I can do that" and jump in with 3k. Thank you to all those people they covered my...

ES options are multiplied by 50. A 1.00 option is worth 50 dollars.

Did you formerly go by the name UrmaBlume? He had the same studies up with buying and selling pressure if I remember correctly.

Im sorry, I should have clarified I meant commissions.

I was trading 4ES Es to 5 nq. Without member rates 1 spread position is really expensive since it was 9 contracts.

The proper ratio of ES to NQ is not 1:2, as per the CME when I was trading it is was 1 ES : 1.27 NQ, this takes in to account more than the point value.

I did the ES/NQ spread for a while and honestly would still be doing it if I paid member rates, a 2 lot position in this is 14 total contracts so that will eat a lot of profits and make losers way worse. This along with X_Trader pro was too much so I dropped down to 2 exchange X_Trader and...

I use Investor RT to do it, anything can be plotted, I think esignal does it too. Here is a chart of the SPUN

Eurodollar futures are STIR futures or "Short Term Interest Rate" they are not currency futures and a wealth of information is out on the internet. Another STIR future would be the Euribor contract. -----------------from the internet Eurodollar futures are a way for companies and...

I read the book by Steven Aiken, he is coming out with a new addition soon (not sure when). I trade the calendar spreads but they are not that interesting now, so I am moving to ED options. The book is as good as a book on trading can be, for me that means helpful in a broad way but no...

Same thing happened to me, went from many monitors to two, and I mainly use only one of them, other is for DOM's

At 1420, (roughly the price in mid Nov and Dec 07) it is 11,600 ES contracts and $580,000 per point.

You may want to look into the NVS 450 or NVS 420. they are made for financial applications like trading and each supports up to 4 monitors. The NVS 450 has passive cooling and the NVS 420 has built in fans. Also, take a look at ebay for deals on these or any cards, when I bought my 2...

I found this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8nMShuSfgI But I know most onboard graphics are disabled when you use a card.

The onboard graphics will run two monitors, but if you put video cards in then the onboard graphics are disabled (you can't run them together). If two monitors is enough then the onboard graphics on that is great but if you need more there are some great cards out there.
