I will definitely be paying attention. I am gonna try to dabble in Nadex again soon, but last time I tried I got crushed by 5 minute binaries. The spreads are brutal. Do you only trade during market hours?

Don't forget taking out 2nd mortgages.

The entire options game is a zero sum game. Actually I take that back, it is a negative sum game because of commissions and spread. The only true winner in the long run is the MM(casino). The question you should be asking is, how do you beat the dealer?

I just say I am an unemployed bum. Sometimes its better if people don't delve deeper into the questions.

10% the past 10 years is nothing, thats barely beating the benchmarks.

A picture says a thousand words, but thats not a picture, thats just scribbles and lines. Not even losers could see an edge in that, you've literally covered the entire chart with trash, just like your post. In fact your name is very fitting, from the small amount of time I spend on elitetrader...

QUIT FOREX, unless you want to trade futures on forex.

Well at least with earnings you could possibly get some information that other traders don't have, i.e., insider info. With the election, you can trade it at iowa electronic markets. But similar to options, the odds are already priced in. http://tippie.biz.uiowa.edu/iem/

He did it guys, we can all go home now, or log off.

I'm sure you could figure out someway to bet on the election. But understand that it is merely speculation, and probably more of a gamble than playing an earnings call.

everyone mortgage your houses and short spy!!!!

Are you sure about that? You're whole post screams of trying to compensate for something you lack.

You got issues.

Seriously, does anyone give a flying fuck what this piece of shit thinks? I am all for free speech, but this offends intelligence. Post count means absolutely nothing. Jeez.

Exactly, what people aren't understanding is that enough demand in the /ES contracts can cause the SPX to follow the /ES. Through arbitrage trading the money through the /ES contracts will flow into the underlying.

The /ES is the barometer of the market. When most people speak of 'The market' they aren't talking about cattle. I think it's quite obvious that the /ES is the most influential of any futures contract being traded. You're trying to be a smart ass here.

heyy man, everyone has different ways they feel about trading and some people get sensitive to these sort of questions. I think its perfectly fine to see this forum as a "water-cooler" type of place.

I lost 3k trading futures the first time I started trading futures at age 17. I was trading 500 dollar /ES contracts. lost 3k in literally 10 minutes. good times

you're basically asking, where can I lose my money the fastest. you have $1000 dollars and you want to trade somewhere without a pattern day trading rule? You do realize the PDT regulation exists to protect people like yourself?
