    Israel owns the US

    Israel doesn't "own" the US, but they certainly own the slice of foreign policy which deals with the Israel/Palestine situation. And I think they're more than happy to "settle" with that, if you know what I mean.

    Is stock_trad3r the PSYOP Division of the PPT?

    lol - this is the funniest thread title all year! Seriously though, I wish it was possible to ignore him, all threads created by him, every post quoting his posts, and even posts where someone even mentions him or his worse-than-Cramer calls. He's a total nutcase. A stock_trad3r free ET would...

    Madoff's $50 billion is a LIE

    I remember on another post about 2-3 days after the news hit, I summed up the reported losses taken by listed companies (globally) - and it racked up more than $20 bn dollars, with additional "undisclosed" amounts. Whether it's 50 or not, well it'll take a while for us to know. But $20 bn and...

    American Express gets $3.39B

    "Amex joins more than 190 banks in tapping TARP..." Sounds like a marketing brochure :)

    Eur/gbp (top)

    You know, couldn't sleep (Europe) and just logged on and changed my mind completely. I definitely think it's ready for 100-200 pip drop before it breaks up - so much so that I'll reverse my position. I'll probably take around 30 pip loss now, but pos size was for 1-2 weeks so it's no biggie.

    Eur/gbp (top)

    The EURGBP is shaping like a triangle waiting to explode to the upside - resistance at 0.9550 and a very healthy trendline of support. Should be an interesting end to the year.

    Eur/gbp (top)

    I believe this baby will reach parity before anyone thinks, and have done something I haven't done in a long time. I've just longed the pair at 0.9480 and will hold it throughout Christmas and into next year - looking to get out at 1. My stop will be a trendline break.

    Developing an app for spreading

    I'm thinking of getting an application developed, as it's impossible to find exactly what I want already existing (apart from high-end bank stuff such as Apama). I thought I'd throw it out here and see if I could get some feedback, ideas and perhaps a suggestion of a framework that could be used...

    How about BDI index & SEA

    Spot and front month lead the way down, and was always the cheapest - the forward curve has been steep. But yes, you're right - there's probably been some savvy buying further out.

    IB and forex

    Well, it has slippage in the sense that there is a spread and that the order book might move in the timeperiod from you send your order to it arriving at IB. But that's really the nature of an ECN - whether it will be better somewhere else, I don't think so. If you have a decent size account...

    Commissions for aggregated ECNs

    I'm wondering what commission scales are achievable when negotiating trading with aggregated ECNs like Apama, CAX or ChoiceFX. Without direct relationships with each marketplace that is. Anyone with any experience on this? I'm expecting it to be slightly higher than what you normally pay to...

    The History of Citadel's collapse

    I'm not sure of the market penetration for Internet Explorer on a normal Windows XP/Vista system, but any site creating content that doesn't go with the market leader do not deserve the right to get linked to. IMHO.
