Agreed, the dec futures are not liquid at all. Very frustrating IB did that. I think i have to get a backup broker for real instead of just talking about it. By the way, IB let you trade bonds this morning for at least an hour after the open. Their "brilliant" policy went into force in the...

I have to agree with you on this one. Even though i did not post on his thread, I actually did try to understand it by going through each page. Yes there have been "FAR WORSE offenders" and obviously something happened behind the scenes.. maybe a personal threat to baron or something of that...

Am I the only one that finds this new crop of commericials extremely annoying and really not funny?

True.. but a retarded chimp pointing at stocks in the WSJ probably has a better 5 year record.

Well lets do the math.. 90% of daytraders fail. Well nobody knows that number for real, but the majority of traders do fail. This guy is purely guessing on the direction of the ES over a weeks time period. There would be a 50/50 chance of success but lets not forget he does no have enough...

I just think there is some misunderstanding here. The price is offered at 4 and will settle either at 0 or 100. So in fact, it is 25x your money which i think is worth paying for those type of odds. Each tick is .10 so if you "win" a contract, you get 10 dollars. So technically speaking its...

Seth there was a guy who claimed to account for about 30% in afterhour volume in the Q's. Is this who you are talking about? I can't remember his name.

Although i have never used the site, you can essentially trade future contracts on the FOMC rate decision for tommorow. A cut of -25 is offered at only 4 dollars. It seems to me thats a chance worth taking. I mean hell, if they did cut a quarter point, you multiply your money by 25 times...

ummm, case in point.

You might want to research methods to teach your students rather than users' prior posts. Dunno, I would be kinda disturbed if i wanted to learn from you and your thoughts are primarliy about what rate to charge for the first six months. It would make sense to me that you would ask around at...

Really struggling with an answer to this but does anyone know where i can pull up a calendar specifically related to Treasuries such as auctions or any other events (which are scheduled of course) that would cause spikes in the 10 year. Thank you so much in advance.

I was with them for about 2 years. I thought i was progressing, but it really didn't in the end. And at the time (00-02) they had about 300 PAYING subscribers. Its a relatively big community.

Lets be honest.. most of the money that is made in trading is by a select few. I would venture to guess 80% lose money, another 10-15% tread water, while only 5% could actually "teach" trading to others. Gurus who sell systems don't care if you succeed or not. They already win if you tried what...

And how does it effect the markets in general? I am a newbie in bonds and very confused on this issue. Thanks a lot.

Does anyone have updates on this proposal? Was it shot down?

She is way too arrogant. One time she was pressed that leading economists were thinking one way, while she was thinking another way. Her response.. "Well i went to Harvard Business School. i think i know what i am talking about." I like Bush, but she needs to go.

The ZN or ES? Lately it seems that the ZN seems to be a better daily range, but over the last couple of years which has a larger intraday range? Thanks in advance.

Is spam considered spam if you are a sponser of the site? The only point to this thread is to promote a sponser, but i don't know if anything can be done about it. Its quite annoying though as no interesting discussion has proceeded since the beginning of it. Just "spam"

Well, lets face it, if the NYT can't plagerize anymore, this is their best attempt at orginal content. Laughable. Its sad to see such an institution such as the NYT attempt to defer their tarred reputation onto other competitors.

I can't help to think that saddam wasn't really a threat. The reason why american was attacked was because of the elusive bin laden, not because of "WMDs" from Iraq. The victims of the towers and the pentagon were due to THE threat to america which is bin laden. Now if he gets killed, the mkt...
