I don't have any problems with BookTrader. It seems to be an issue with your PC so I'm not sure why you feel the need to bring it into a public forum.

Old news... http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?threadid=75287 http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=74641&highlight=dbfx+fxcm The NFA bit does add a new twist though. Compare this email sent to me by Michael Mirarchi when I asked if there was any association...

Me and my partners used to think this madrid9 guy was an amusing idiot but now we think he's just an annoyance.

CFD is bucket shop trading run by spread betting companies. Why not just place spread bets instead - it's tax free.

Not many successful websites have "the" at the start. Not that anyone was going to buy from this scam merchant...

I've just read the highly ambiguous statement on the cbot website regarding the recent crashes. It sounds like the sort of thing you'd hear from an incompetent IT support department, "we're not sure what went wrong but hopefully it's ok now". Doesn't give me any faith at all in trading their...

Very nice system. Just going through it with esignal I got a 100% win rate over the past 10 days using a 20 point stop and profit target. 100 points a week in a market that has shown signs of trending and ranging - not bad! I assume your guy is the expert on it though so maybe his more...

I was looking at your website and noticed that you have a system with an 83% win rate. However the stop is 40 points and the first profit target is 10 points. It is expalined on your website that letting the trade run beyond the 10 points in backtesting only worked out slightly more profitable...

We're talking about the difference between OANDA and trading futures with someone like IB. "Liquidity" on OANDA doesn't exist in any real sense - it's you against them. Spreads are generally one pip plus commission which is better than OANDA's 2 pips raised to 25 pips whenever they feel like...

I'd hardly call that an "attack on the ET community". It looked to me like a bit of good humour directed at one person WHO thinks people ARE going to TAKE him SERIOUSLY even though he WRITES like a 12 YEAR OLD. How can you take someone seriously who thinks "Trade The News SUCKS!!" is an...

You have some very nice simple methods on your website that obviously do work very well. They make a nice change from the usual basic or obscure indicators that most similar websites use. I have never paid for a signal provider and never will but I'd definitely recommend you to any newbie.

You get better liquidity and leverage on Globex and you only need $5000 to open a futures account.

OK quick we reopen in 5 minutes. For all those not already in a position buy or sell?

I must also WORK for GLOBALFUTURES because the RANDOM capitals MAFIA are ATTACKING them TOO. I CAME to theiR DefENCe TOO.

Me and my partners shorted the BIG Dow today at 12490 and the position is looking a little underwater. Me and my partners are wondering what to do with the position, which has blown half our account. Should we close now or wait for the position to come back in our favour?

Unfortunately it seems to be a trend on ET that new sponsors get attacked for no reason by semi-literates who THINK that RANDOMLY writing in CAPITALS is a way to MAKE a POINT. Take it with a pinch of salt. TradeTheNews is a very good service if you want an audio news service.

I think some of you may be missing the humour in madrid9's posts.

If you're doing the silly "trade the spike" thing then forget it with futures. You'll suffer massive slippage.

Are we allowed to buy the dips (zero risk, 100% up room to go)?

If you'd tried the same thing on the 5th of this month you'd have got squashed. Then the 9 o' clock also "turned it on" but didn't remain on for long.
