This thread needs a little love....Group hugs everybody... breathe in breathe out...in...out. It's only options!!

Mav and Riskarb. If insiders are buying and 1 wants to lean long, why not a saliba explosion position. Maybe short ATM long 5 OTM calls?

I am suprised that the vol in Eurex is much much less than CBOT. Do you guys think it is just a little too early in the rollover of the contracts from the March to outer months to gauge the success of EurexUS? My take (very unsophisticated that is) is that if Eurex really wanted to compete...

Banker there is one HUGE diff between the gs, sbsh,nite and the pro firms like assent echo,et al. While you can argue about the pnl payoff of 30% vs. 99% The traders of NITE,GS are not responsible for losses nor do they post performance bonds I.e. deposits.

Don't forget the fibers like Cotton,now if we can only get the Chinese to drink OJ!

If you want to buy a spread for 100 pts difference between contracts and the bid/offer of the 2 contracts line up will the Autospreader fire 2 limit orders to hit the bid,take the offer ? If so, does the autospreader ever get hung on the spread when 1 side gets executed and the other doesn't? I...

Here is another possible reason. Eurex contracts are financials so delivery of paper ,bonds,etc is simpler. Ags, require warehouses, grading houses, ports, and other infactructure native to phyical commodities which are not as easily duplicated. My guess 3-5 years?

I think the reason why Eurex is not introducing ags,softs,energies is that they are too small for them to bother. With the execption of Crude and Nat gas maybe even Corn, all the other ones are too thin volume -wise to make $. Furthermore, I read in books (written by ex pit traders) that once...

Why are they not reported no one knows. Bottom line is the trader has to manually match buys/sells in options, if they expire worthless, set the selling price to zero and then report to IRS.

high volume spike (1.7B today !) on contracting range tends to signal trend change?

Distribution from the smart money to the ....?

I was trying to do a repair of the Add/Remove programs and accdg to MS knowlege base, I should run a program off of the Win 2K but I did an modify install (as opposed to clean install) by mistake. There is this 1 game which was in the system before I did this and now when I boot up the PC, a...

Everytime I boot up I get this message saying setup.ins not found so remove reference of it in registry. Furthermore, my add/remove programs is not working i.e. the remove button is grayed out so I can't ever remove a program I don't need. I have a feeling the registry is corrupted thru the...

I did that Circuit City and it showed the way you described it with Box 1 and 2. Unfortunately, they would'nt let me rip one of their displays in the desktop section to prove my theory. Thanks again .

Thanks mark1. I always thought that pre win98, it is card dependent so traders who want mult needed to buy appian,colorgraphics,etc.Furthermore, I assumed that mult monitor capability post win 98 did not depend on the card since the OS detects all the graphics card present and "divides" the...

Hi. I am looking at a Toshiba satellite notebook and was hoping to connect an external monitor to it and have 2 screens so I can put charts on 1 screen and order entry on the laptop screen. The guys at Best buy and circui city said that if I connect an external 17" I would see what is in the...

Hi guys. I moved my PC from one spot to another and when I booted it, it would hang just dark screen. I tried about 5 -10 times same result. I got lucky after a while and it booted after I pressed one of those f keys to try to see if I can get it to boot under Safe mode.( I don't know which f...
