hhhhhhmmmmmm, this is ludicrous. Take a look at Florida. No income tax policy, lower sales tax at city and county levels, and the state sees revenue growth. I was born, raised, and currently live in Chicago, and can honestly say I'm considering a move.

This is the same as in the midwest USA. There is basically no difference from what I've seen between the Toronto area and the midwest in terms of weather. Most ignorant Americans do not realize that Minneapolis, along with most of upper North America is further north than Toronto. Glance at a...

I posted this in another thread, but no one responded. Tell me if this makes any sense, specifically those of you from or who live in Canada. I am from the states. Born and raised, never left (no pun intended). I throw right handed, bat left handed. There is a far higher percentage of...

Here is one more statistic to back my point up. In Major League Baseball, the percentage of American's that bat left handed is 28.43% The percentage of Canadian's that bat left handed is 46.15% http://www.sabernomics.com/sabernomics/index.php/2010/02/why-are-there-more-canadian-lefties/

And as far as hobbies, in the summer I play golf. Which leads me to another question pertaining to Canada. I throw right handed, bat left handed. I play golf left handed. There is a far higher percentage of left handers in Canada than America. The only explanation I've ever been given for...

This is a serious question. Why are people from Canada more friendly than Americans. I have a life long buddy who moved to Toronto 8ish years ago, have visited several times, and have never once met an asshole. I walk out my front door and all I see are jerk offs. Weird.

If you are not handicapped, I would suggest training to become a punt returner in the NFL. There are guys who can't spell their own names making millions doing this for a living.

The guy will eclipse 1,000 yards receiving Sunday, IF he and Cutler play the entire game...which is a huge IF. You can't tell me that production from a second year player, fifth round draft pick with a new offensive scheme altogether isn't phenomenal. The Bears are so young and inexperienced...

I don't get it. Are you bashing Cutler? The team has a first round bye and is 11-4. If you've watched the Bears throughout the season, the o-line has made a ton of adjustments, and Jay is rolling out more to avoid pocket collapse pressure. All of these adjustments were made after the bye...

Don't make me go back and re-post all your quotes concerning the Cutler trade. How are the Broncos doing this year? How are the Bears doing this year? More importantly, how are all the players involved in the Cutler trade performing? 11-4, 1st round bye, Knox (the WR we drafted from the...

I would've said Lebron James if he went to a contending team where he was still the focal point, ie. the Bulls. Next best would be Tom Brady.

Pick an instrument, stare at it for at least 2,000 hours then formulate your own ideas. There is no easy way to do it.

Ninja Trader w/ Zen-Fire. I believe Mirus Futures offers this platform, all in one commission rate with $500 d/t margin.

GF, you really just don't get it. You make some of the most moronic comments/statements I've ever seen...then you go over to threads practically begging for a job. Brah, you're slow to the take. That is why I will propose the following suggestion to your bold statement: "& beware because I...

Yes, it's absolutely true. The point is that a lot of guys got kicked out of markets, losers like guyfawkes, who can't hack it in this business. Like anything else, you need to constantly adjust or you'll get ran over. A lot of the 2000-2005 electronic traders started getting killed around...

Quote from GuyFawkes on 8-22-10 "Hey treasury traders.------------------------------------------------------- I asked this question a while back. Got totally ignored and probabaly will again. I traders at an office of one of the biggest clearers in Chicago and nobody is making money. It's...

It doesn't matter if you subconciously see the algo's. The edge that traders used to have in the Bund was taken away by the algo's. They take away inefficiencies in the market. Now by no means does that mean money can't be made by a discretionary trader...you have to find something new that...

A lot of high frequency discretionary traders have moved away from the Bund primarily because the market is dominated by algo's and the short term edge is gone. That is why it's not a good trade for scalpers trading a short time frame.

Yeah, thank you. I checked the CBOT calendar and it's listed as the usual 2:15pm EST. Just thought it was weird because I've never seen an incorrect time on the yahoo calendar which I've used for about eight years. Weird.

Yahoo economic calendar has next Tuesday's FOMC rate decision listed as 3:15pm EST. Can anyone clarify this. Thank you.
