Just completely sidestep the point of the post. Big successful traders feed on small retail traders. And doing the obvious makes you the prey. Say what you want about the floor - I saw locals who would put on thousands at a time. Big electronic traders do the same types of things. They come...

When I was on the floor, the big locals would run stops. It's like a free option. How did these independent local traders determine where the stops were ? Technical support and resistance.

And that's when the FBI gets involved.

It gets a bit more complicated - Citi was acting as administrator for a commercial lending agreement between two parties and the recipient honestly thought (and expected) it was a loan payment. $400M was returned and this will be appealed.

Start out insanely wealthy. You're welcome.

I've seen some really nasty things happen when someone tries to "hedge" or lay off a big stinker.

Commodity tokens (in theory at least) could provide some interesting opportunities. Which will be rapidly exploited and arbitraged to zero.

Ten Year Notes (ZN) have no coupons? Really?

Poppycock. Look at other commodity investment vehicles like ETF's and the convenience yield is actually much worse.

Why not get out of your losers and roll your winners ? What commodity?

No, you actually don't have a decent strategy. You've been lying to yourself all along. Without legitimate position management you were 100% set up to fail.

Cody Easterday was remarkably consistent with his futures trading. Five years is a long streak.

I don't know about shrimp, but shaved ice is a power move in the Summer.

Since March '20 there has a been a world class boss move trend line on the Weekly. But first retracement on the Daily - Volente will start another "top is in" thread - number XXXX.
