    27 Feb Interest rate spike

    Scalper 250 to 500 trades per day

    For all the anti-scalpers... A lot of the scalpers do actually let some trades run!!! Quite amazing i know. But maybe there are 3 clear winners a day and 5 marginal ones... a good scalper will do those 8 trades and many many more marginal trades constantly going with the eb and flow of the...

    bund vs euribor

    Bund is the 10yr bond future (quite volatile and a large range of prices traded daily) and the euribor is the first couple of months (most volume) (much less volatile and range much tighter than the bund) so spreading them would mean spreading opposite ends of the yield curve. More often people...

    Is it possible to trade on NATURAL DISASTERS?

    Why do so many people act like trading should be ethical? The world isn't a fair place, and shit happens. Business is business and trading is trading. For those that wouldn't short a hurricain related stock, would you get out of it if you were long? and get back in once the storm passed...

    Flipper Footprints in Dec Bund

    Have you ever watched the market depth in Bund/Bobl/Schatz and co-insided them with a trade recap? You see that sometimes there are big offers or bids that get turned (flipped) without being traded. Because of the fact that there are so many local traders doing large size in these products...

    Flipper Footprints in Dec Bund

    Anyone notice the amazingly played out flipper move between 9:48 starting at 114.94 in the bobl until just after 10:00? Class act, seriously hats off to the guy, but seems that these type of plays are becoming a little bit more predictable than they used to be... FGBS

    Flipper Footprints in Dec Bund

    Seems like whoever is flipping the market has been VERY active this week, so could you give your mate at the hedge fund a call and ask him to do some more bunds? :p Never thought that the parties involved would last this long, thought a bank of hedge fund would have taken them out long ago...

    Flipper Footprints in Dec Bund

    Enjoying this thread, speculation about the flipper is always enjoyable but one thing i think you have to remember is that he trades bobl, schatz and the bore as well so he may have done well in bund on some days but lost out in the the others. Yesterday there was a really big Bobl fill (5000...
