Good book. Worth the read. Check out his lecture on the NYMEX symposium. At least you are dealing with real traders and not just vendors. Mike

Offered at 295 on Amazon. Nice for the collection, but Im not sure it would vary much from Stedlmayers Mind Over Markets or Trading With Market Profile.

Stick with the stocks then. The unspoken truth is that ES and NQ have ripped, destroyed and blown up more accounts than anything else ever invented. And Im speaking of someone who is profitible.

Prox, I was thinking we would do this Open Outcry and come to a consensus. I am bidding 13 right now

I am looking for the over/under of where the typical thread starts to break down and becomes stupider than your average Motley Fool trader. I believe it is 13. That is, after thirteen posts, more than half of all threads have become unbearably too stupid to read any more. Where do you...

Jesus, this is further evidence that the longer a thread goes on, the more inane it gets. Christ.

And just an FYI, the bonds have alread switched to June

I have traded ER alot and would say it is very comparable to DAX in the way it trades. Crazy breakouts and retracements. I really like it for breakouts, but be warned, use stops but give them enough room. The noise level can really play havoc with your brain, so keep a stop in place and...

It seems to me that the guys posting in the options arena here offer some of the best info on this site. Guys jump in to help begginers and the pros debate subtelties. Even when folks RiskArb and Mav are going at each others throats, it is obvious that it is two guys that know what the hell...

Just give that dog a nice refreshing bowl of anti freeze.

Just take Ecstacy.

I think it is a an absolutely hateful magazine. Sometimes socialist type of undertones in its developing country type of articles and sometimes the usual crap about how free trade will ruin the third worlds envioronment. I cant stand that stupid shit.

Well, it has a contract value of 58,700 right now, ES has a contract value of about 56k right. ES tick is 12.50, this is 10 bucks. I dont see the difference.

My favorite contract. I like this as a buy on breaks of pivots. A little trickier to trade shorts, as the thinness can whip you around, and as you know, a falling market trades different than a rising market. So I use NQ or EMD to short.

Great respsonses, thanks. Tikipoi, this is very close to what I was originally thinking about. Almost scary. The idea of a synthetic, but with one more put strike to create a spread. In my case, it was for no other reason than to lower the margin. So, on 50.00 XYX buy the 50 call, sell...

Mav, since you have such good knowledge of options and a great way of explaining, I would like to put to you the following question. Suppose I am looking at a pure direction bet. Let us say my method is to stalk a storng stock in a strong sector like Darvas or O'Niel and buy it at the...

True. but the New Order version is also fantastic. Got to see them play it live at the Moby Area 1 festivle a couple of years ago. Fantastic. They opened the show with "Atmosphere" and it just took off from there.

illiquid - Im probably the only one on this board that gets the Joy Division. I always bring in the New Year with Joy Divisions "Ceremony." Listening to it right now. Best, Mike

Im on the road traveling. Can get on my IB account, but not TOS

My favorite contract. Also like the mid cap emimi
