Cash and futures down huge. Futures went from 9180 to 8785 in a minute.... Currently 9095....

You mean stock futures? Equities don't have delivery dates, you are buying a portion of a company

Yes, gambling is a good word. You have to settle each day. The best thing to do is have more then enough in assets on deposit to cover any losses that may occur. Any broker should take other securities for deposit. So if you have 100k in GE you could use that as your margin deposit and...

Just so you know, $4 at the pump does not mean that the RBOB contract will be at $4. The intial margin is $8100, this is the minimum you must have on deposit with your broker to enter this position. Any broker that takes you will probably make you put up more than this. Lets say you...

Can you explain in more detail what the olympics in china has to do with the current price of gold? Thanks 5yr

Its a 3, this is typical business cycle, not necessarily the best situation, but we are in fine shape

The chart you are showing is misleading, future contracts do a bad job of estimating what a buy and hold customer would actually do, because they wouldn't buying and holding the futures. If they bought IMW (iShares Russell 2000 Index) in Nov04 they would be up 15.5% ((70.80-61.30)/61.30) if you...

I think this discussion is very interesting, but I didn't read every post so excuse me if I am restating something. Charts created from random number generators do seem to display trends, when in reality the previous up or down move gives no information on what number will be generated next. But...

Just checked. On Jan 31st CL H8- CL J8 = +.07 On Feb 19th CL H8- CL J8 = +.31

I don't think thats true. They would have said it went down despite the feds comments. Its basic economics. If the fed says, or even mentions inflation pressures next time, the market will be red. (in OP words)

Because if the fed lowers the growth forecast that means they are more likely to lower interest rates further. Lower Rates = easier money = Stock Market Green

9:16 central time is my guess

what time did you get filled? I can check for you

This isn't true, the best way to get in is by having experience. I beleive most of the people working there are doing client execution, they aren't making the trading decisions, that isn't where the money is. (Except for a select few) UBS makes its money providing brokerage/clearing services for...

Did you mean the Looser and Tighter or Loser and Winner?

You could probably use TT (or another execution platform) set up a spread for you, it would take some of the execution risk out. Or just piece into it... if you plan on doing 10 spreads do 1 at a time, should reduce execution risk.

Still awaiting your reply, I got your PM but you should defend the company's reputation publicly. It would be hard to put money on deposit with a company that has NO reputation. How much does Cago trading have in working capital? Have you ever had problems withdrawing large amounts of money? How...

I know very large hedge funds that trade exactly like this... look at longer term charts, not just intraday. Lower risk means you can take bigger size, i say go for it, but do research first

I have tried to find "Cago Trading" on the internet... there is no reference of them anywhere. I also asked some of my fellow traders and no one has heard of them. You're posts sound like a bunch of BS to me, do we wire money directly to your banking account? Anxiously awaiting your reply, 5yr

Yeah everything I have in Brazilian Reals, earning 12% interest in a currency that is up 35% in 3 years versus the dollar.
