    Who's stupid enough to be shorting these levels?

    According to my data (it only goes back to Jan 1900, so its not complete) "new all time lows" on the dow would be at 40.5. (Thats the correct number, not adjusted for dividends), Surely you would be willing to declare a bear market at some point before that. Maybe at 100??? 5yr

    Summary of a small disaster

    That should be relatively easy to figure out, just look at what your systems would have done had you kept the 8K. If they preformed similarly to what you backtested, it sounds like you were under capitalized and just hoping that you would have a really good period. Back-testing isn't...

    Contango on rollover action

    This has been happening for a while, the spread between the front and next month has been getting blown out. If you have to be long you have to be in the Apr or farther out. The Mar dropped $1.66 more than the Apr did today. I believe the OP is right that its the long commodity funds rolling...

    Contango on rollover action

    I have noticed this too, I am holding a short position in the Mar instead of rolling to apr because of this. If I was long I would roll early. Since I am short I am staying in it longer than I normally would. For you I would definitely buy the Apr instead of the Mar, open interest has rolled...

    GS broke out

    So do you think that Bank of America or Citibank's share price should be higher? What do you think fair-value is for corporations that have asked and received multi tens of billions of dollars of tax payer money? Was it the short-sellers that caused these corporations to ask for these loans...

    How can i raise money?

    You should figure out what your annualized return is on 10% compounded monthly. Then calculate the annualized return on 25% compounded monthly. (If you think its 300% you should go take a finance class) HINT: 10% per month is over 200% annual returns. 5yr

    Will this have any impact on the EUR/USD ?

    Since its the Bank of England probably have a bigger effect on the pound. Increasing the supply of money would cause the dollar to rally versus the pound. Interest rates are like the price of money, the higher the rate the stronger the currency, other things being equal. 5yr

    Starting at a day-trading firm soon

    Well this definitely isn't a job. You are their customer, not their employee. They are a brokerage/clearing firm and you are a customer of theirs. My definition of a job, you provide some sort of work or expertise and they pay you for your time, if you are giving them money then it must be...

    Interesting times: Who do you trust first? Your government, or OPEC?

    BTW, I think the high price of oil is good, it is the only way to affect change in our way of life. If we had an entirely renewable energy infrastructure, we would not have to worry about the middle-east, global warming and the destruction of the of the environment due to oil exploration. 5yr

    Interesting times: Who do you trust first? Your government, or OPEC?

    I am providing some information for your edification, but you really should some research, especially when you side with OPEC. Oh and the democrats in congress say that this price rise is due to speculation too. World Oil Demand http://www.eia.doe.gov/emeu/ipsr/t46.xls World Oil Production...

    Do you wear a seatbelt when you drive?

    What benefit to you receive for not wearing your seatbelt? I assume you trade and take risk in order to receive money in return, but maybe you just like to take needless risk. 5yr
