why is ZB called "ultra" T bond futures now ?

just google Attain Capital, they are pretty well known . But you'll have to register to access the programs performance.

They list a bunch of programs/FX traders with absolutely incredible numbers (those are usually not NFA registered and offshore, may be established in the Caribbean). Has anyone had experience with Attain and those programs ? How come all these unregistered managers are doing way better than...

It's pretty simple : You either need to be some sort of financial market genius, a wunderkid of trading or you need to have an unfair advantage. In the past professional traders had an unfair advantage, for ex. they were on the floor and could see order flow or in the daytrading heydays they...

At some point I believe he did offer seminars on how to make money in the stockmarket, although with expert guests...

The guy is a joke, and a master bull sH*ter like most of the other Fed governors. At the slightest drop of the market, he goes on the air to say some niceties to Wall St. The frequency of his speeches is even arranged according to what goes on in the market, if tehy need to prop up markets they...

Is this the best way to get into investment management ? I am really not the career minded type who knows everything on the subject but I would venture to say you would be better off getting a job at a fund and then become a CFA. MBA a lot of people will tell you it's not as sought after for...

The ECB does not run a tight monetary policy, actually they have been throwing all the good principles championed by the Germans out the window. Blame Draghi who quickly became a Bernanke copycat . "To sum up" : It's the less worse of the central banks.

OK I just did some reading on NDF's and it seems to me a spot FX transaction at a "FX dealer" (not a bank) is very much a NDF, non deliverable forward for immediate delivery (T+2) , and NDF's are essentially contracts to exchange gains or losses just like CFD's.

I just called two firms in the UK, one offering "Forex CFD's" and neither could tell me the difference between FX and CFD 's, or whether FX trades were actually CFD 's.

From a legal standpoint, is a spot forex transaction initiated at a FX dealer a CFD (Contract for Difference) whereby the gain or loss is paid/debited by the FX dealer in your account ? Some firms like CMC markets refer to Forex CFD 's while others make no mention of CFD . Technically it seems...

Q's to OP How does someone with no programming skills use Multicharts' for systematic trading and backtesting capabilities ? Do you have some pre-programmed formula's that you can build on, adding pre programmed filters and indicators ? Does the free version come with data for...

contra, yes you are right thanks for pointing that out, that should do it for now. But I was wondering if there was anything like Ninjatrader,amibroker etc that could be used with free RT data for historical charts.

I use the netdania based charts for intraday data and historical, I find they are not as good for daily charts, they use a different closing timê it seems.

I was using FXtrek Intellicharts, they were the best I found. Now they are gone (free version), I can't find anything good. It has to display the standard close of the daily session at 5pm ET, otherwise I find it confusing. And I need multiple windows.

It's you who is either a sheep brainwashed by the IT industry or then you work yourself in IT , in tech support lol . The reason they make you update all the time, is that they want to make you work for them , so you are the guinea pig testing new software they need to develop to keep...

Is this a bad joke ? I googled ISP , it's a virus .

My mon setup is working again. Everything is normal so far. I ran Malwarebytes, will do the full scan, will try this ISP thing. I am running a not very recent OS. I will use an old PC with win2k to browse forums, I believe the older your system the less attacks you get, malware is designed to...

I read it of course, but it's not very clear to me . If I understand correctly, SIPC coverage is dependent on the type of products traded. I didn't know it was the case. IB UK customers would be covered by SIPC for their US activity but say you trade mostly US equities, and occasionnaly...

I was on a broker's forum this afternoon and left for an errand. When I logged back into my computer, I got a message : Windows had closed IE to protect my PC / prevent data to be transmitted to whatever (an outside computer) I don't remember. The computer froze, I had no other choice than...
