there is some value to a pit audio feed as sometimes the pit leads the mini but it is very rare, ES is where its at now...

i talked to GHCO a few months ago and there is indeed a miami office but it is only for employees. so if you want to cut a deal with them and give them a % of your profits u can work there. but if you back yourself and want to keep everything then u r out of luck.

i trade futures on eurex for myself and have been for the last 3.5 years

you need to step your game up. i too once worked at the cboe and got canned and complained about it being so hard to make money. its hard to make money no matter what u trade these days, every bid-ask is tight now. but lots of people are still making big cash, including the people u stood...

is this CFT purely prop or does it offer arcade services as well? anybody know?

i sell a currency future against the euros i make and then just let it expire and take delivery on the dollars. this eliminates the shitty conversion rate i was getting. i sell some futures whenever i think the euro is at a good level to convert, like last week i sold at $1.23. im not trying...

yeah, i felt the slowdown there as well and it did suck. on a side note, ive been having trouble trading the estoxx over the last month. i was banging it pretty good for the last 3 years but it seems to have changed lately. anyone else feel this way?

DAX in the summer? well it depends, i've seen it rocking. however, with the world cup being this summer and germany the host, i think june and july could be pretty slow/thin but you never know, it could be rocking again.

i really think the problem is with your own technical set-up. i trade in a small office with just a few other eurex traders and day in, day out i am completely satisfied with the technology. never any late fills unless the whole exchange is slow and all exchanges experience this periodically...

last november i brought my laptop down to Rio to attempt to trade eurex. i used the hi speed broadband connection in my hotel to remotely access my box here in chicago (so it should have reduced the amount of packets needed to relay back and forth). anyways, the result was a failure for me as...

wow, i'd feel safe with all these glowing reviews from people who just registered and have 1 post! it just reeks of legitimacy.

to trade bigger size, to trade in a big office with lots of other people to bounce ideas off or listen to news feeds, because you can possibly get better commission rates, because you dont want to have all your capital tied up, because...

expiration week always has huge "crosses".

you can make your pnl say whatever you want it to by adding manual fills. your digital pic proves nothing. not saying you did that but im just saying...

all who are trashing the bird, volente excluded, are a bunch of pansies. he has had balls to post real predictions and been right up until the past 2 days here. no trader is perfect and i'll side with bird anytime because he knows his stuff.

harrisson trading group can set you up nice as well...

the YM is bogus. it will never be half as liquid as the NQ. if all you care about is range X tick size then trade the dax.

i can confirm that rumor but you can only trade there if you are an employee of ghco, and not if you trade your own money.

11 hours is tough. i traded in london for a bit last year and tried doing that and towards the end of the day i was so drained my trading really suffered. i remember 3 years ago trading afterhours with only 10 lots on prices. right before the close was a free for all then, just getting...
