I'll give it a shot tomorrow. I can't seem to get my data feed after hours. Not sure I ever tried before.

Yeah I was looking at the chart. I kept changing the time frames so it was multiple. Does the timeframe matter?

Hi bone, Could you check out my thread? I believe you could shed some light on this. http://www.elitetrader.com/et/index.php?threads/futures-flies-get-filled.287913/

Hi guys, I usually only trade 2 leg spreads (mostly CL, little big of Ag futs) and have no troubles getting fills. The other day I tried bidding on the Marc Jun Sept CL Fly and left my order out there for days bidding at -0.40. I never got a fill, but I saw the chart go way past me several...

What is the breakdown of HFT algos achieving gross on a trade or simply rebates? Pardon my ignorance, but when I had access to multiple ECN's there were some who offered a rebate for removing liquidity... Do these still exist and/or do HFT's often take advantage of them? And how does HFT...

I'm just wondering if anybody knows whether its possible to be long Vega while remaining delta theta neutral without using more than 4 legs? By delta theta neutral I don't mean strictly zero, but close enough to where it's negligible. Also just an offshoot trivial question.. Is equity...

I'm wondering if anybody knows of a stock scanner that can scan for conditional implied volatility: e.g. Find all optionable stocks with market cap larger than 1bil who's implied volatility is within 1% of a 3 year low.

I have to ask... When does Apple exit its growth phase and enter maturity? They still don't pay a dividend. Attempting to anticipate huge innovations is difficult, but from a reasonable standpoint and the general path of technology (miniaturization, speed, and functionality) it is tough to...

Crude price is also heavy influenced by a function of global energy demand... If you can predict global energy demand with MS paint I will be impressed.

I definitely wouldn't buy... The CDS is trading around 450bp last time I checked. That's roughly 9 times higher than what it was about a month and a half earlier. I don't consider the credit market participants retards.

People buying them.

It makes me feel good about myself that I can actually follow what you guys are talking about and I haven't even finished intermediate econ at school. lol :) Do either of you guys follow refinery outages? I'm trying to learn the oil economy beyond the charts and looking for relationships...

I don't think the public on a large scale understands that we won't be seeing any economic growth. When there is no good news, they will look for good news and markets will come up. When the rose colored glasses come off once again then markets will sell off. Price action is largely based...

Just curious... How many of you guys have developed a detachment from money, or remember back to a time where you had an attachment to money and how before/after has affected your trading. How has it affected your day to day lives outside of trading?

Hey bone do your models account for inventory levels at all? Or refinery production levels (planned / unplanned outages etc)? :) Or just a lot of hard stat arb.

I wasn't interested in the markets during the days the floor was dominant; but I feel really bad for those guys. It would be mega depressing if your livelihood was taken away from the advance of technology. From the top of the world to the bottom. God damn. :(

What do you mean "eventually the market gets it right" The market is never wrong... thats just a rationalization for a losing trade.

lmao...

I didn't say I had that ability... and I don't. I said I know a trader who has it.. lol I wish I could do that
