Says the Fed should've cut 50 basis points this morning after the jobs report. Idiot, they can't be running to every bad headline and government report. I don't think the Fed should cut that soon (meaning today), but I think they will be cutting at least 50 points on the 18th.

Hi there, Just recently built a new trading computer for my self and got two dual-DVI NVIDIA video cards for it. I connected two to the first card (connected to PCI-E bus 1), and the other to the second card which is connected to PCI-E bus 4. Computer detects the 2nd card and drivers, but...

Not sure if this was mentioned (didn't want to search through 25 pages), but I hope you all are aware that the SPX contracts are going electronic in the next month or two. I should think the bid/ask spreads should get much tighter, as did the OEX contracts did when they went electronic a...

True, but now that CME owns CBOT (and doesn't own NYMEX, or ICE doesn't own NYBOT) I would think that it would all be under one name (CME Group). But, who knows what could happen. I really only trade CME products, and if they add CBOT under one fee I'll probably trade those too. Hopefully...

All the e-CBOT products are moving over to Globex so I assume there would be one data service, not both from CBOT and CME.

You would still need an agreement so that he can disclaim any liability towards his mistakes and detailing his compensation.

Haha, no I didn't mean it that way. I meant to say that we do choose the channels but nothing was on that I liked, so CNBC it was. Luckily around 3, something finally came on that I liked.

I was watching CNBC at the gym today (it was all that was on, sadly they don't have bloomberg), and I have to say how mad I am at that network for letting him do the on-air kiss. Just because the market goes up 250 points doesn't give them the right to stop being professional and to the point. I...

Yes! This really played well with me buying 12 ES contracts yesterday night at 1423.50. I sold them this morning at 1444.50! Yes!!!

Definitely B. I can always use the extra money to trade currency overnight!

Well, I agree that you shouldn't add her to the LLC if you're trying out something new. What you should do is form an LLP, Limited Liability Partnership, which is different than an LLC, Limited Liability Company. With the LLP, it is easier to remove the money as you don't have to buy back...

Trader01123: It shouldn't cost you $5,000 to draw up the partnership agreement. If you're in the Chicago area I can refer you over to an attorney who can do it for around $650~ which he said is a pretty standard rate. Are you going the partnership way or something different? An LLP would...

You're getting ripped off if you're paying $5,000 for a Partnership Agreement!!! My attorney drew one up for around $650 and it has been working fine and protecting my assets for the past 4 years. To the OP, seeking legal advice is necessary as you will be managing people's money and need to...

You'll be fine with the Treasurys, as those are the most secured. The California Munis, however, just be sure you're aware that those aren't all insured or guaranteed. Just look at what happened to Sentienal today. Cash accounts usually mean FDIC insured investments. Money Market accounts are...

Never used them, but I assume you can get that from OpenTick. I think they have data going back 20 years, not sure if its with the info you want.

Actually, yeah, I'll have to check them out too.

Home office for prop firm/own account? Seperate office for prop firm/own account? Prop Firm's office? I currently trade from my home office, but I am thinking of renting a cubicle in downtown Chicago. I don't really like working at home anymore as I get distracted easily. I tried doing an...

Don, Is there anyway you can send me a copy of your firm's contract? I wanted to take a look at some of them. Please PM me. Thanks!!! -Chris
