    Health Insurance

    Are you referring to MegaLife insurance through the NASE? Are they using someone else? I have used them for 2 years. I didn't have to file any claims with them and they provide group rates for the association. I ended up canceling because of a class action suit against MegaLife and very poor...

    Profit and loss back office software

    Can you list the stats that you are currently tracking and what you want to have tracked? I have a lineout spreadsheet that does this for my traders and was curious as to what others are also looking at at the end of their trading day.

    EurexUS, will it work?

    Sorry. I misread your post. I thought it was pretty obvious but was happy to help out anyway. :D Yes, the bonds do trade at $15.625 per contract per tick as well on EurexUS. This is one of the aspects of the new contract that EurexUS was trumpeting early on. Shoot.... I meant Navigator and...

    EurexUS, will it work?

    When I last looked at this, the depth seemed fine. However, the orders wouldn't execute most of the time. They were just bids and asks moving up and down the page with very little actually executing. I think that has changed recently. Just put up the EurexUS 10 yr book next to the CBOT 10 yr...

    EurexUS, will it work?

    I haven't messed with that add-on (I think it is called OCO trader). I don't see any use for that for my kind of trading. It is supposed to give you the best fill across multiple exchanges. I think the market will end up going in that direction eventually where you can get partially filled on...

    EurexUS, will it work?

    I'm a member of EurexUS and I would be eligible for a kickback on every contract traded under my membership by the group if that incentive is offered for the Russell. I was intending to benefit from that program on the notes/bonds, but we never traded them (almost all of the size is fake in...

    EurexUS, will it work?

    FYI I received this from EurexUS just now: ------------------------------------------- Please find attached Eurex US Circular No. 55/2004. The circular announces that the exchange will launch futures on the U.S. large-cap Russell 1000® index and the U.S. small cap Russell 2000®...

    I LOVE the HSI futs!

    Is this the contract you are referring to? http://www.hkex.com.hk/tradinfo/futurescontract/fut.htm It seems quite expensive given a point value of HK$50 and RT exchange fees of $23 per contract. Can you provide info on the ATR (doesn't matter how many days back)? Contracts traded per...

    Simple System for Beginners Monthly Results

    You are right on that one. I am not sure what happened there. I think I spent too much time looking at charts that morning. Did you get a trade trigger on November 1 at 13:35 CST for a 2 tick profit?

    EurexUS, will it work?

    I am a member of the CME just so I can get those lower rates and avoid the NFA fee of $0.06 per RT. I hear you on the fees; competition is always healthy. I am also a member of the CBOT and feel that, although EurexUS has put some pressure on the notes/bonds, it is beneficial overall to the...

    EurexUS, will it work?

    Dropped in favor for options. There is apparently more money in options right now. ER2, DAX and EuroSTOXX 50 are still scheduled to be available next year on EurexUS.

    Simple System for Beginners Monthly Results

    Hi Anomaly, I don't get the same results in November. Have you checked the individual trades to see if they match the chart? For example, on November 1, I get the following: Opening Price: 584.80 Buy Price: 586.80 Sell Price: 582.90 On a 5 min chart (as you are using for your...

    Well... wild as in fun not as in "America's Wildest Springbreak Videos". Most of the foreigners from various parts of Switzerland gathered there. I was still in high school at the time and it was great to hook up with the others from international schools from around the country. The party just...

    I used to go to Arthur's by the airport. There was a door charge of sFr. 30 plus about sFr 12 per drink. Things might have changed now. I don't know if Arthur's was even there. Better clubs for the price nearby in France. Macumba, etc. The expensive things in Switzerland would include...

    I found Geneva to be the most open as far as social life for foreigners or new comers. The Dutch opers (sp??) are all over the place and are absolutely crazy. Great fun!!

    switzerland

    Switzerland has some of the most beautiful ladies in Europe. The problem is that everything is sooooo darned expensive (from a USD perspective). A night out won't cost you anything less that $150 or so assuming u will hit a dance club. I actually use to bounce for Nelson's Pub back in the...
