All of the information on contract expiration schedules is on the respective exchange's website. Most contracts are rolled 1 week or so before First Notice Date or Last Trading Day, whichever comes first. Liquidity dries up as you get closer to expiry.

For those of you that live in & around Metro Detroit, there is a group of traders (about 20 or so) that get together one evening a month in the Birmingham area to discuss anything trading/financial related. Most of the people trade full-time and there are some sharp people in the group...

Its absurd to make it out like Michigan is all assembly line workers & trees. Everyone in the state got pretty well screwed by the Auto industry problems, whether they were involved or not. That's not anything new. I would hardly call it shocking or surprising that the people in this state...

I have been with them for 2 1/2 years and have never seen or heard of this issue.

Looks very interesting. Have any links to materials you found useful to better describe it? I'll search out based on what was on wikipedia, but was wondering if there was anything that stood out in your search. Eric

Also, by my count, the K/M spread has only closed below the current level of -1.83 on 10 days since 1983 or about 0.12% of the time. Eric

Maestro - I am looking forward to your participation in the group. On the site there are links to some of the more common things found to help people get up to speed in Matlab. Feel free to post any questions you may have on forum on the site, as there are people that can likely answer them for...

there are numerous threads on ET that discuss this concept. Search around for threads by TSGannGalt and Acrary and they should be somewhere in there. Also, here is some software that should help out too. http://www.adaptrade.com/product.htm Eric

I use a combination of mean reversion & trend change type TA. I also tie that in with some historical price levels using database queries. I am not sure if that's what you're looking for or not. I also have been messing around with some co-integration tests on intra-day data to try & get a...

Thanks for the info, thats good to know. I sort of suspected that was the case given the price. Eric

I developed my system after work & traveling over the period of a few years. I then came to the realization that much of my effort & mental capacity was already drained by the time I finished working my day job. After I realized this, I then began working on things for 2 hrs before going...

I don't know anything about the company you mentioned, other than whats on their website but I found this when searching for Chicago based hosting: http://www.fdcservers.net/ May be worth investigating..... Eric

hello all.... I have made good progress on the site so far this week and believe it is ready to be used. There may be some minor issues with it, but nothing that appears to be major that cannot be fixed along the way. There will be more progress made on the site so it will be changing a lot...

hello all.... I am back from vacation and have gotten started on the site that will be used to facilitate the Matlab Traders Group. The site is currently being built. It shouldn't take too long to get an initial version up & running (a few days or so). The site will be changing a lot...

I agree. There is a Matlab webinar online that covers this in some level. It is something that I would definitely like to include as a topic of discussion within the group. Thanks for the input, Eric

Looks like there is some interest in getting a group set up so thats a good thing.... I am going to be on vacation for a week and will be unavailable but as of right now my plan is this: Get a website set up to allow members to: 1) Interact with one another in a forum or similar format...

RT- It sounds like you have a lot of experience in working with Matlab. Hopefully you would be interested in participating in the group, as I am sure there will be others (myself included) that could learn a lot from you. Regards, Eric

I currently use Matlab for system development and am looking for others that do as well to bounce ideas off of and learn at a quicker pace. I believe there are other people similar to me that are looking to improve the process they use to trading develop systems. While your beliefs about...

Glad to see some responses on this. I will look into some sort of web site to information and ideas generated from the group. My intention is to keep the site & group simple and casual. The idea is that the group gives members better resources to learn, help resolve questions, issues...
