Some things are true and some things are false. But it is ALL just trading bullshit in the end. No one is paid to be here. So the BS is FREE.

I have read this thread and was curious if there was an actual release data? Does anyone know how long Java takes to go from beta to release?

Do any of you guys trade Bobls? It is a slower and more methodical BUND. You just have to trade a few more contracts to get the same results. Any Stoxx traders who think the Bund is a little too jumpy or wild for their style should look at the Bobl. Many stock index traders do not like...

MK, FWIW, there is a difference between the backfill from CQG and DTNIQ. These differences do not affect my kind of trading. However, I do not use MD. If data integrity is important to your indicators and you are worried about these type of things (and they do not get fixed at DTN)...

My old clearing firm was causing a little havoc this morning in the Eurex markets. The Stoxx and to a lesser extent the Bobl and bund (albeit less noticeable in fixed income) They just lay off the blame on Rotter!! Cheaper than getting a bodyguard. a new verb ......We got Rotter'd...

Ok Arb does Rotter really have a Big Goon Bodyguard trailing him around MTV style?

LOL that is funny stuff. A trader with a bodyguard? Hehehehehe.LOL I know some floor traders at the CME who NEEDED bodyguards!!!! But they never actually put a bodyguard on the payroll. That is funny stuff. Looks like traders in Europe and especially the UK are poor sports.

LOL. Yeah, they may have just been f@@@ed on the move. Large traders can loose large money. Of course, you made a valuable observation. When the big guys and small guys are outa sync the market does not trend......very true and valid. So maybe look for a possible reversal on any news...

They could be spreading or their holding periods could be radically different. Very rare to have a massive scalper. They tend to build BIG positions for a reason. From my 11 years of experience, I would say Big traders in Fixed Income tend to be more institutionalized and they are all on...

What is the deal IB? At least give us a reason for this??

IB what is up with CME????????

i got problems as well for CME

I can only speak for the futures world. Every prop firm is different. I do not know any futures traders that traded for themselves and did NOT go through financial difficulties (eventually). I know a few large traders that had BK's and did not have a problem opening up a futures account or...

Can anyone recommend an all around good dual head Nvidia pci card for me. I am only going to be running 19 inch dell monitors (LCD's). I am not up to date on video cards and I do not want or need any high end Nivdia cards on my backup system. Just a basic cards. thanks

I hear you and agree. We have heard this stuff talked about for years. But it was always JUST talk. Having traded at both exchanges, they are worlds apart. We will see how BAD this is for commissions. CME is one of the most expensive exchanges on earth. For the retail traders this sucks...

I take it you run snoopfree all the time? It does not appear to use up much in the way of resources.

cool tool I have all kinds of stuff running. How do you tell when something is shady? Any tips.

i have yet to have a problem this morning cross my fingers what server are you on? canada, us?

I am trading the Stoxx and getting data from IB just fine. Market depth seems right up with TT as well. It must just be a CME/IB problem.
