dont u enter limit orders?

i had one 1 hour meeting with my lawyer to set up my S-corp. then it took a few weeks to get the docs approved by the state and i was good to go. total cost for lawyer fees and state approval fees: bout $800.

if you set up an LLC you can then open a SEP-IRA which would allow you to sock away up to 46K a year tax free, as opposed to the normal 16K or whatever a year.

i am in chicago and clear through fortis. i trade 100K a month of the eurostoxx and pay .38 eurocents total/per side. thats .08 above exchange fees. as bund is cheaper, with your volume, you should be able to get in that neighborhood as well.

i called globex and they told me the TRADES WILL STAND. i asked again to be sure and he told me there is no possibility of the trades being busted.

i personally dont believe fast number crunching is important at all. i realize a lot of firms use it in their screening process so in that sense it is important but once real trading begins developing an inate sense of edge in a trade is the most important, and that only comes from experience...

megadon is back with another new name!

they take turns leading and lagging. but generally ES leads more of the time, i would guess around 60-65% of the time.

yes they are very legit. they are one of the few firms that actually put an extreme amount of effort into training you. now in terms of the deal you get, obviously it is less. however, its give and take. your chances of success here are much greater than most other places i think and for...

im on a server with only 3 other people so that definitely makes a difference. but even that couldnt help on a day like today where it really slowed down, maybe the worst ive ever experienced. however, our CME traders were yelling and screaming too about delays. i suspect you aren't around...

correct

it is fine. dogfish complains unneccessarily so. im pretty certain the problem is on his end with so many people on a server at marex. i rarely have any problems. and i use TT.

make sure your wife isnt secretly hiding any of your cash because if so then she is decreasing your potential profit and deserves to be scolded.

non-competes are a joke. dont let that influence your decision at all. where companies really have control of you is when they withhold part of your compensation until you fulfill the terms of the contract. then you are stuck there. but a non-compete is completely unenforceable legally plus...

you guys are both paying retail rates. u set up an account with a clearing firm and can get dramatically cheaper, volume dependent of course. get yourself up to 1000-2000 roundturns a day and you'll be looking at .80 euro per roundturn. trade more than that and get still cheaper but that is...

that would explain why i've been absolutely run over a few times lately, cuz those maniac bund traders are pushing it around.

i imagine the difference is because eurex recognizes the last price traded at the 10:30 am chicago time cash close even though the futures stay open until 3pm chicago time. esignal might use the last price traded at 3pm.

yeah, they are legit. the owner is a massive eurodollar trader. if you get offered a job i would say take it.
