Kid, dont listen to the ones who tell you you can't trade with 200$. You wont trade REAL futures with 200$ though. FXpro will take the other side of you trade or will hedge his book of 0.1 orther positions by trading futures for themselves. So you must have an account outside the US I guess. And...

Lawmakers are afraid we will see another sharp sell off and they want to prevent it by having a handle on the market. The last thing they want is the stocks to go down when the unemployment is still bad, Fanie and Freddy still reporting losses and ... The possibility of a great depression is not...

The VIX is the volatility of something, the volatility of the VIX is another thing. So the way I understand, there is theta and time decay. And options pricing tools are usable on the VIX but dont believe that Back Scholes is the answer. You must need some stochastic model like the SABR and you...

2 possibilities; 1- PPT 2- Fake news sent on CNBC that there have been a fat finger or computer glitch. IMHO, in any event, it was a real crash. http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=2833564#post2833564

One thing they may provide is the "insurance" against default on those bonds so the yields should decrease and they will fund their debts at better yields and wont get into an infinite spiral of raising cash to repay the higher debts until default. It will also lower the pressure on the European...

Sir, look at the chart of the ES in 1 minute bars and you will see that it was normal trading, nobody pulled it down, the market did. Indeed it was brutal but it was real. It was a crash and manipulators sent news through CNBC that it was a fat finger or computer glitch and the street bought...

On Bloomberg since 9:52 this morning. You where not thinking that The Street dot com have their own reporter right?

It's funny how people can't think, or can't accept that a crash really happened. 1- The SPX is up close to 100% from the lows and the economy is still bad (but slowly improving). 2- The SPX went up in the lsat weeks and may be due for a correction. 3- There are HIGH tensions and uncertainties...

And you arguments to prove that it was otherwise are?

Remarks, this is what it is. A poem nothing less. "It's that V-shaped drop where it came down and snaped back right back up". Sir, why dont you look at the drop in 2008: It was a V-shaped drop where it came down and snaped back right back up. Was is for real then? Chearleader.

IMO, this thing was for real. Real money, real players, real trades. Just look in one minute charts of the ES how it is smoothly draging down b4 14:45. Just a plain simple falling knife. PG fell off the table at 14:46, relative value traders (pairs) or panic selling but the people traders are...

Emptyness, like no credibility in their assesment.

I remember someone who shorted BUD or Inbev on the OPG and the stock shut up 10 or 20$ in seconds or minutes. This was 2 years ago or something. There was an article in the wall street journal about a potential buyout. So you can consider this as a worst case scenario that wont happen in your...

Margin call.

It's something they allow to trade in FREE markets ;-) In your face United Slaves of America

If it's public information it's legal, if not it's illegal. So if you can sit in the court and listen to the verdict it's legal. But if it's behind closed doors and you find a way to know it would be insider information. I am no lawyer and am clueless about the law BTW! I guess the news is...
