    A Suppository for Little Known NQ Factoids

    13:22 PT is not aftermarket. NQ + Globex + 3:15-3:30 CT: CLOSED. I assume you are aware of that... great. My point is that "the data stream" is moot when no trading is possible.

    A Suppository for Little Known NQ Factoids

    13:22 PT is not just outside RTH. It's also when NQ and almost all other CME Globex equity futures (with a couple of obscure exceptions) are closed for trading. That 4.25 b/a spread is not tradeable.

    What do you make of this job?

    "manage and close trades", lol. Standard, mind-numbing, back-office grind.

    Currency Hedge Real Estate

    There is no meaningful currency risk, and therefore no point in paying any premium to hedge. Should USD/CAD decline further over the next 2 (or more) years, the increase in the USD cost of his CAD mortgage payments will be offset by the corresponding increase in the USD market value of the...

    Some forex firms closing soon?!

    Correct. It's also a moot point. FXDD is unregulated... not a member of the NFA and not registered with the CFTC. As relatively little as those things mean for traders' protection when your money is at stake, they are better than nothing. Tradition Group and FXDD apparently can't be...

    You can thank your parents and friends for TRADING failure

    Yes. For example, IQ is completely worthless as an indicator of anything. Pity.

    70% correct prediction, frozen, can't pull triger to make a trade.

    FT71, while I fully agree with most of your post, chances are overwhelming that the OP doesn't know his entry, doesn't know his stop and doesn't know his target. There is no TRADE management to speak of, in his post. supercoder2006, why don't you describe exactly how you came up with that...

    what is the best way for saving threads ?

    No. That would be nice, but that's not the way it works. File - Save As cannot and does not save the whole thread on your hard drive, only the current page (40 posts max). As far as I know, this is true for all popular browsers and all available saving options under each browser, and should...

    Confused graduate HELP!

    delpz: you gotta to be kidding. Please tell me your post was a joke, on a boring Friday afternoon? In case it's not a joke and if your so-called "choice" is anything but a no-brainer that it should be, maybe this business isn't a good fit for you, after all. Don't know how you managed to...

    what is the best way for saving threads ?

    Even better to make it permanent: Your Account - Edit Options - Default Posts per Thread - Show 40 posts per page The default is what, 5? Can't imagine why anyone would ever prefer fewer posts per page than the maximum possible. Especially when such maximum is a low number like 40.

    Forget future global warming... how about this mother of all tips, right now: "4. Permit problems. Before you buy an island, make sure to ask the authorities what you can build on it -- if anything. "Islands without building permits are literally worthless," says Vladi. Once you own an...

    Miss Teen USA 2007 - South Carolina answers a question

    The first link above of her original "performance" still works fine, plus there are many other versions of that on YouTube and elsewhere. The second link of her Today Show debut has been deleted from YouTube, maybe by NBC copyright infringement goons. Simply search YouTube for "Lauren Upton"...

    How hard would it be to get this leverage?

    Care to elaborate? As in dealer name. I say, no chance in hell, in a single transaction. Only some forex market makers offer 400:1... and a couple lovely Swiss gems 500:1. No MM I know of allows trade size more than 10, 20 Mio, tops. Some ECNs offer liquidity in some pairs a lot more...

    She said she was 18 (I swear, Your Honor). It's at the 3m37s mark of the Today Show clip. Knock yourself out.
