    Damn 30 yr fix is now 6.5%

    That's the risk. Some people would rather wait and hope prices fall further because of higher rates and pay less for a property but more on a monthly basis. Personally,I would look for a good deal now and take advantage of the low rates.If you're buying somewhere for the long term,in 10...

    Eurex Trading Volume

    "isn't that what locals do anyhow" Shit locals do,that's why the models on Eurex have chewed them up and spat them out. You've missed the point,it's about NOT having enough liquidity,re-read Bond Trader 50's post and all will become clear.

    Eurex Trading Volume

    Personally I think the volumes will slip,this has nothing to do with my views on Eurex as an entity but more to do with when the algos have killed off the last few locals and the word around town is "avoid at all costs",therefore attracting no new "blood". If this happens then there will be...

    Stops !!!!!

    Only fools are complaining about gas prices

    Fair point.Everything is relative,what products you buy out of choice versus products you actually NEED to buy and get squeezed on and of course how much you need to buy. One of the most expensive substances you'll ever buy per volume,more expensive than gold,oil,Starbucks,even blood is...

    Communism reigns in America

    America is subconsciously Communist anyway. But we just don't know it. And by telling ourselves how free we are all the time proves that. Right?

    Texas Real Estate Slump Lets Mexicans Take It Back

    Hilarious. All the whinging Americans banging on and on "Don't buy a house,the Real Estate market will collapse,won't bottom out for years..........." and the Mexicans are swooping in and buying the country up at rock-bottom - wait a few years and for the market rebound,then try and buy cheap...

    Ran Poor Service

    I wouldn't patronize this guy too much with "I don't know if you are aware that news feeds cost 900 GBP per month",because that's a bunch of shit. Dow news on esignal is $140 or 70 GBP with a 30 day contract You need to go and rethink the numbers because you are badly misleading people...

    Calculating spreads

    There's no general rule for weighting contracts with different tick/point values,but to be honest a 1:1 ratio would be a good starting point. Are you planning on actually trading any spreads or just charting them?Also let us know which contracts you are specifically looking to spread without...

    30 Bonds 1/2Tick

    Look at the bund/bobl/schatz. [/B] Bobl used to be pretty good,went a bit too automated,then half-tick ruined it. Schatz used to be awesome(many,many years ago),half-tick changed the game,now it is a bunch of bullshit. Bund is just bullshit,will probably go half-tick then it is adios...

    Extremely thin Bund/bobl

    I can totally believe that,we had a couple of guys here doing the graveyard shift in the bobl who found it was ruined when they took it half tick. These clowns have no idea how to run an exchange or what the market really needs. Thanks for the update.

    Bund Future 03/28/2008

    Good point. You were long(apparently),tried getting out(yeah,right),then managed to PAY 58 and 59 upon reopening. Why would you buy more? Unless you don't know what the hell you're talking about. Which is obvious.

    Extremely thin Bund/bobl

    YNOX - here is my post that you have badly misinterpreted,I did not say "most of the days were between 2.5-3m in volume and the ranges were 100 ticks". You are as thick as shit,this is a fact,you are now struggling to read and comprehend plain English,if you re-read the post you will see you...
