maybe this will be the time everyone is thinking the same as you and it won't happen Tell me something, if you have a real view on something why do you tell the world? A great (and very large 1980's/90's pit) trader once told me the last thing you want if for the whole world to know what you...

Hydro, we all know someone with a story, I am talking from my personal experience. Of course there is always someone that has a different view. And I am talking futures by the way, the slippage is a bit more manageable.

I think it's just consitency. I've only been trading 4.5 years, but when you get to the stage where u r consistent, u just edge up the size periodically. Before you know it the 500 days are now 5000 and on the really good days you might make 40 or 50k. Thing is there is always someone bigger and...

Was the person with the good error with Goldmans? I know someone that was on the otherside of a 1m error on that day.

Yeah agreed, but without innocent people getting slaughtered

Best day $70,000, day of the London bombs Worst day $35,000 - trading Gilt futures

Sorry can't really reply much at the moment, too busy reading the FT and watching bloomberg haha. It's good of you to admit your mistake. Gota run......got the FT to read.

well then making sweeping statements about making more in a month than I may have done in my career is not wise. And again, go to the head of your office, sit him down in front of your screen, and show him. Something is not right.

Thanks for retracting your insults as I am in a way trying to help you understand how markets work If you are correct about the test you did with IT then this is what I read into it:- firstly market is offered at 68 and 68.5, you want to buy 1 lot but its a fast market so you put in a...

You muppet, you got filled at the best bid price - what don't you understand? You cannot sell at 64.5 if the market is 65 bid. You will get filled at 65 and only 64.5 if your size is greater than the bid size at 65. You got filled at the best bid price despite what you may think, obviously by...

Oh and by going up all day, again you missed my point. you talked of an aggresive sell off? Could you tell me when today it sold off aggressively as I'm struggling to see more than a 10 tick sell off.

I think you're the idiot, what you are saying is the guy with the higher offer gets filled but the lower one doesn't? So mr 65.5 offered gets filled but not mr. 64.5. I'll tell you what, that's free money - you absolute fool. Retire now because quite clearly you don't understand markets.

listen, if u got filled at 46.5 then that's where the market is trading, you got filled at the best bid. Also the dax has gone up pretty much all day, don't know what you're on about. and finally, pay peanuts you get monkies.

That would not work if you were trading out of the UK

Become a resident of Gibraltar, pay £10,000 tax fixed per year and rent or own a home (the cheapest places being about £160,000). Probably one of the best legitimate no risk tax avoidance schemes in Europe.

KYTE

haha, you're such a putz mate, where you from, Iraq, Iran, Palestine?

Fx man all I was asking was that people did control their emotions by not banging on about how much they made. I don't know how you can not understand that - it was pretty clear and simple. Now that we've all lost our magniminity I may as well tell you I made a lot of money yesterday, and yes I...

thats exactly what I'm asking people to do fool

Guys, a lot of people have lost their lives here today, it's not very humble to talk about how much you made. I for one don't care, and I'm sure most Londoners don't.
