    What % of crude contracts get closed (without physical delivery)?

    I heard the actual number is around 2-4% as well. Its a great market when you have so much liquidity ready willing to take the other side of a trade. Love to see how absorbing that liquidity and eliminating risk-takers will help the public overall. Hedgers NEED speculators.. period.

    F##king Cramer!!!

    The best is blame the uptick rule.. Not his horrendous call on sticking with bear stearns. Not to mention trying to cover his tracks by ERASING his buy recommendation for bear stearns on the thestreet.com. Unfort, he still thinks this is the 80's where maybe nobody notices........ Thank god for...

    Schindler Trading up 17% YTD

    My thinking is that he should be open here, since he has been open all along and gathered a serious following along the way (myself included.) But unfortunately, I can no longer say that. The moderators (including baron) have really turned a blind eye to the pollution of threads and...

    GOOG misses estimates !!

    Dunno, Cody on the Fox Business Channel said he thinks its a good time to buy GOOG before the earnings report... Okay, the more pertinent question is why was I watching FBC.. I can't even think of a good excuse.

    SEASON 2, thursday TV WALLSTREET WARRIORS

    I have to agree in the sense that she has to "interview" for a daytrading prop job. All they are trying to do is legitimize themselves by saying "hey, we even have a college grad working here!" All they want is her commish.

    my boss blew up

    Actually with 600 lots of the 10 years.. that equates to roughly 10,000 a tick. In an average ho-hum day, it prob ranges around 30-40 ticks. Double that if it isn't ho-hum..... Lets just say throw out the S&P trade for a sec.. Swinging 500K either way is fairly common with that type of size...
