Your problem starts here.

What prices are off btw? Just the daily close?

Until the "no more LIBOR thing" becomes actually real I'll believe it when I see it.

LK, to be fair, that "only" is like 50% return on capital over the year. Who wouldn't be happy with that? Anyway, I think your point was on traders being undercapitalized and prone to volatility drag. That I agree with - and I think that traders who don't believe in it are fooling themselves.

Sure, you may not "work a 9-5" but instead of having a human boss at some job you're now a slave to the market. The problem here is you're not qualifying the real world costs of being chained to a computer every day trading away. There is a huge life benefit to trading on higher timeframes or...

I wouldn't say the "implied book" is a book itself but instead a collection of orders that are in the outright book and the spread book that are purely implied from each other. For instance, implied orders in the outright book (showing additional liquidity separate from orders that are...

I still go to theaters but only ones that tend to focus on independent, foreign, art house, documentary, or similar. I.e. Non Hollywood.

Hey would anyone happen to have the ICE Softs Fast Facts pdf from June 2017 that they could attach or otherwise send to me? I fucked up and missed downloading it before they posted July and now I can't find it anywhere.

That chart is specific to the Z contract only though. A non back adjusted continuous chart doesn't look like that for ZC. Aside from that I will say that the day to day or week to week action sure has been a bit megaphone/bipolar in spirit though.

Don't use a stop market use a stop limit with a wide enough range that it's basically a stop (but implemented as a marketable limit order on stop trigger). You're hung up on stop market orders when you don't need to be.

All accessible with IB.

Yep! But according to Bobby he's got it all figured out. But for him to say something like "hmm, yeah maybe you guys do have a point and there are some serious unknowns here" would be for him to drop the ego, and we know how that goes.

Global Treasuries and/or International Money Rates data sources in eSignal. There are around 2000 symbols directly related to yields, inter bank rates, etc.

Let us not forget that less than 2 years ago VIX went from 15 to 50 in the span of 3 days around 8/24/2015. It's the same ole game every cycle though. Someone talking about some high win rate trading method in a low vol or bull market, then something happens and you never hear from em again (or...

Any gains won't be worth the quality of life trade off IMO. But if you insist the 2nd hour of the London open is where the real moves usually happen. The first hour is basically the "open" hour and like US indexes in that a move is made but not necessarily the move that will continue. Sometimes...

SSG (Singapore on SGX), STW (Taiwan on SGX), N225 (Nikkei on OSE/JPX), SPI (Australia on SFE). TF and sometimes Z (FTSE on ICEEU). Plenty of other stuff to trade besides equity indexes though. They're actually quite annoying in behavior.

Those flies don't look right to me. How would a fly make sense as ZN vs ZB vs ZN? That's not a fly that's just some weird thing. First ask yourself what you're fundamentally trying to trade. If you're trying to trade the relationship of various rates along the curve, e.g. +ZF, -ZN, +ZB, then...

Tap, tap, you guys all die or something? So how about that wheat?

"Non-prosecution" because they're a bank aka protected class. Such bullshit.
