hi. i thought eurex was going to have a narrow spread comapred to cbot? i guess not. so i don't really see any reason to use eurex since they charge cancel fees and cbot does not. i don't see why they charge these fees.just greedy i suppose. well,they won't get my business. like they care but...
hi. whats with Ib and the ecbot platform? everytime things get busy IB loses the ecbot quotes. what a friggin joke that is. their system has been fine for a while now,then all of a sudden everything is screwing up again. so far i've been lucky and haven't had everything go blank while i have had...
oh good. then how come all they can talk about is deflation? when they were talking about raising interest rates in the 90's,the crb was important but now its around 260? and pointing up but nobody cares(so they say anyway) i find this very strange.not that this has any affect on my life or...
hi. doesn't greenspan and the fed use the crb index as a inflation indicator? i thought back in the 90's around the time of"irrational exburence" he used to talk about the crb index. or am i wrong?

at least you have discipline and thats a major key. protect what you have is my #1 rule so i'll always live to fight another day. i miss stuff all the time and i have learnt to let it go(sometimes) otherwise i'll get ticked off and chase it. then,of course,it reverses.
if i could only find that...
just the title is a give away of a sucker deal. these guys should write" how i make a living off of suckers" this is like the moron who did infomercials on how easy futures trading is. can't remeber his name right now.
once i stopped trading the es contract and switched to bonds and currency futures, i have done well. not 100k but with my"regular job" i wouldn't have made that either. once i stopped being greedy and thinking i can make 3k a week i did very well.plus working for myself is worth a whole lot. i...
i guess they had to draw a line somewhere. i don't know how they came up with the 25k level. maybe the great arthur levitt figured this would eliminate a good % od daytraders since thats all he knew how to do was go after the smaller speculators.
i would love to here anyones comments on this or...
the sec is bought by the big wall st firms. where was the sec when the great wall st scams were going on? nowhere. they can't do anything about the morgan and merrill with their army of lawyers but they can mess with small day traders. thats easy. the big mm's just got po'd about traders getting...
