What do the traders here watch to see the correlation between hte stock and the bond market ? Assuming SPX as the proxy for the stock market, should one be using TYX, TNX or perhaps something else ? Also, I see that the T-notes etc are traded in the futures market on a par basis, 100...

For some reason I could not find it after searching high and low.

Could anyone point me to the list of the companies in hte S&P sorted by their weight in the index.

While I am a fairly inexperienced trader, I think it is better to stick to your original stop. The action on this stop has now reinforced the thought that perhaps sometimes it is better to let the loss grow big. Sure as hell, one day you will take a major hit hoping that it was just a...

>>> On trade station I can do that Can eSignal's Advance charting do this stuff ?

While the market could very well rally, I see that Gold and Euro are also going up. Further, the previous rally has been on decreasing volume. The market has also factored in the rate cut. So, it should drop the day the news of the rate cut comes out. In any case, I will change my...

Has anyone found this to be a problem ? I found that when I install the SUN Java VM then I cannot run J-Trader. Perhaps there is a workaround that I am unaware of ?

Can anyone tell us where we can find a chart for the put call ratio, say on OEX or SPX ?

Much appreciated.

My understanding is that the VIX has been around since 1995 or so ? I did read in an article in which the author stated that he had back-fitted the VIX to the 1987 crash and that it was around 145. I cannot find the article now and am wondering if anyone agrees with the VIX level...

It's still there on the internet.

I moved back to Colorado after living there (Ft. Lauderdale) for about 8 months. I don't mind the crowds etc, but the worst thing I found was the mentality of the people. I call it the "North East mentality". But perhaps, you will like it.

In my opinion, people who are able to are already leaving the US. As an example you can find a few traders here talking about moving out of the US (Costa Rica, Holland etc) but still trading the US markets. Thus, while folks agree that money is to be made here, no one wants to live here...
