If I'm not mistaken, the SOQ is different from the opening price because not all stocks open exactly at the same time, i.e. 50 of the components may open at 9:30:07, as opposed to 9:30:00 or 9:30:01. SOQ would take the 9:30:07 prices into the final settlement price. Correct me if I'm wrong, no...

Thanks :)

If anyone would be so kind, I'm wondering what the margins are for 6E futures options at Interactive brokers. I'm on the TWS Demo and I'm not sure if the margins are realistic as compared to a live account. What margin I'd like to check: Sell -1 underlying: 6E (this is underlying EUR...

http://www.meetup.com/neutraltrading/pages/Neutral_Trading_in_a_Nut_Shell/ "The loser is kept and worked on with additional rollovers and sos maneuvers. Eventually that loser will come back to life and become profitable. " That's what it all boils down to. Sounds like it's just rolling to...

This is all you actually need to worry about, the profits are meaningless. Don't think you can 'simply' turn it into a vertical, a couple of factors go into that. At what point and/or drawdown do you turn it into a vertical, note that because you are already selling DOTM and already...

Thanks ExchangeBonds!

Just wondering what is the performance bond margin for an ES/NQ spread trade? Tried finding it on the CME website's performance bond list, I couldn't find one for E-mini S&P and E-mini Nasdaq? Also, what's the ratio, 2 ES x 3 NQ?

What are your backtested returns during high vola? Most of the markets you trade have been way too stable YTD to think you have 'edge', unless you have tested/traded during higher volatility.

It almost sounds like it was a setup by Germany and the others, make France go over the hill first with the transaction tax, see that it sucks, then retreat. Like that scene from Braveheart where Mel Gibson's troops charge into battle but the reinforcements turn away because they had been...

Or maybe someone arbed their cable feed and got the cnbc segment before you did. Transmission arbitrage.

But back then the kids used to work on farms. Now they work on Farmville on their facebook page. Maybe zynga will make a facebook futures market for farmville crops? Long zynga? *head explodes*

400+ on the ask around 106.10. Midday selloff?

500 lot flash guy showed up at 9:45 at 106.50, didn't seem to help the breakout cause though.

100 lot at 106.95, price is 106.98 x 106.99. *edit: Took out 106.95 size but moved a few ticks higher. 1:21 est. Sim long 107, stop 106.93, target 107.19. Stopped out on that one.

Anyone else watch CL level 2? What I'm looking for going into close: If we get into 107.30's or we tag 107.40 and size is still there, if it backs off a little I'll try to get short into 107.30's. If they bust through the level, and move into 107.50's and beyond, I'll wait for the upward...

I've seen the 400-500 lot flasher before, shows up right before a big momentum move. 400 some odd lots showed up on the bid at 106.99 around 11:52-11:53 with price at 107.08, before the move to 108.24. I bet if you watch the book from 11:43-11:45 some bid size spoofed also. From...

What I don't understand is the correlation with rents. Shouldn't rents be coming down also with so much availability? If so many people own and are making them rentals, that increased supply should bring down the price for rent. Or is there just a transitional period?

Howdy, buy stop 107.75 targets 108.06 and 108.50. stop loss 107.59 *edit: setup invalid with move lower at 9:25.

This guy is probably a shill for "bulls on wallstreet", fuck your 14-day trial.

This guy must be bwolinsky's motivation.
