    Economic/Market Calendar--PDF

    Does anyone know where I might find an economic and/or market calendar that includes key reports being released, including crude, nfp, const. spending, etc.? Raymond James has a nice calendar (just google it) but it doesn't have crude or gas, fwiw. thanks, Michael

    IntercontinentalExchange wins trading rights for Russell equity indexes

    I would assume so. Esignal charges $40 right now for ICE entitlement. Also, from what I gather, the cost of execution will be going up as well. https://www.theice.com/publicdocs/nybot/NYBOT_Russsell_Agreement_FAQ.pdf Personally, I am not thrilled with this news at all.

    Black Weds for the Thailand SETI

    Just a more uncivilized form of corruption in Thailand. A few more years spent in our universities and the fortune 500's, and they will eventually figure out how to do it (corruption and manipulating the currency) the right way (sarcasm). :(

    post expiration effect on the markets

    As a newer trader, I can't help but notice the effect that derivatives have on the markets. Although obvious (maybe) to an experienced trader, I would find it difficult not to understand, in depth, the derivatives markets, specifically options, when trying to obtain greater knowledge of the...

    Soros, ignorant in economic theory?

    Read this article.... http://www.mises.org/story/477 A far better explanation than those previously given on this thread, and quite fortuitous at that. The point being, perfect knowledge of economics won't make you billions. If that were the case, then Mr. Sennholz would surely be a...

    Soros, ignorant in economic theory?

    When using logic, or the science of correct reasoning, one can conclude for every buyer there is a seller, for every cause there is an effect. One could logically come to that conclusion through experiment, i.e. a trade. As for trading, discerning what the market is telling you can be a whole...

    Soros, ignorant in economic theory?

    Why would you think that having connections has anything to do with the foundations of his success? You must look deeper to recognize why someone accumulates a fortune the size of his. Ethics aside, there is more depth to the process. Regardless of what he has done with his money, the issue...

    Soros, ignorant in economic theory?

    I suppose all of this was given to him on a silver platter. Are we talking about George Soros or his son? I find no value in this statement. It is superficial at best. The VALUE, once again, can be found in his thought processes i.e. his analytical ability. Soros did not become a great...
