Just curious as to why you're not interested in the pit traded contract. I don't like the QM for the same reason you mentioned. Are the commisions for the pit traded contracts too much or is slipage the problem? I want to trade gold and oil futures for a hold time of 6 monthes+ - what's the...

Neverming, IB said trading halted at NYMEX

On IB JAN06 contract what happened it stop trading at 11:37

Yeah but isn't the great thing about the markets the emotions, the fear and greed that lead to huge seloffs and rallies. What happens when programs control 90%+ of the volume out there - they take all the emotion, fear, greed out of the markets. Could be wrong though, I think the markets from...

stocks: -280 futures: +700

ICE ICE BABY

Of the orginal dow 30 stocks only GE was part of the original 30 included in the index. So what happened to the other 29? And how bout the S&P? How many of the original 500 are still included. Watch GM and F get removed very soon so that a high flying surviver like AAPL and GOOG can be...

Trade futures or options at Interactive Brokers. Stocks is a dying game, all the action is in derivatives these days.

Friday: +70 Monday: +690 Today: +410 UTSI cost me 400 today. Not doing too good with stocks but doing decent with futures.

You know who will blow up? Kirk Kirkorian. Sad a billionaire who's about to throw away a big chunk of his money on a shit company in the twilight of his life. I'd not be happy if I'm a hier to his fortune (or what's left of it).

GM brands: Olds (retired), Buick, Chevy, Pontiac, GMC, Saturn, Caddy - sad thing is its all the same shit, same platform and everything only differant badge. WTF how bout having two brands like profitable car makers like Honda, Toyota, and Nissan - one for the masses and one a luxury brand. I...

LMAO. Ozzy is the man.

AAPL to the moon baby. GOOG doesn't even come close nor any of the energy stocks to matching AAPL's rise from $6 in 2003. Just wait till the wintel computers come out, then AAPL will rocket to be the #1 computer company in the country. I can't wait to get my hands on it.

why can't you mofos just continue to smack the offers and lift price 100% to 13 instead of trying to mean revert that shit:mad:

Whoever you talked to is an idiot. I've had the PDT flag removed from my account. But this was back when I was with etrade. They said you can have it removed once if it was a mistake and you tell them it won't happen again. You can still trade options and futures, i f the rep you talked to...

Don't these firms have risk controls. One guy shorts 200,000 tons of copper and no one notices. Classic, I love trading.

Great post. I now remind myself everyday that just by sitting there and doing nothing the whole day I end up way ahead of most guys and institutions out there that try to trade all day. There no point an making any trades 90% of the time.

Empire Strikes Back Tuesday: -400 Wednesday: -3000 Today: -600 I am devastated and humbled. Despite being more experienced than ever, I am experiencing my worst drawdown ever. Something seriously wrong with that. Was expecting huge rally today, my stops on long positions got hit over...

thanks
