It's not down much lol I remind you the market hasn't opened yet.

That's great news thanks.

no I am not saying that, what I am saying is you have to understand the significance of the data. For me a sample size of 50 is not enough to draw any significant conclusion. If I flip a coin 50 times and it comes up heads 30 times, tails 20 times is the next flip more likely to be heads? It is...

Can I ask how you are margining the spreads? Will you be using the margins as per the CME numbers? http://www.cmegroup.com/clearing/margins/outright-vol-scans.html Thanks

just be aware I will quote this exchange back to you on election night to rub it in.

Things to consider. All the large US banks donate heavily to the Clinton campaign and associated foundation. How many large US banks donate to the Trump campaign? Why doesn't the US government issue its own currency? Who profits from controlling the money flow in the US? Over here in the UK we...

Consider this. If I take a data set of 52 data points for each day of the week. I record whether it rains or not on any given weekday for one year. The data shows me that it has rained more often on Mondays than any other day. I conclude from weeks 53 onwards that it is more likely to rain on...

It's nice to see sound, intelligent and respectful debate is alive and well on ET. lol.

lol. you just made me spit my morning coffee. thanks.

thanks for the suggestion.

I think we will see 13500 in the dow and 1500 in the S&P before the year is out. September and October are going to be very ugly. The only thing that will stop it is another round of coordinated global QE. Let's see what happens. Good weekend.

yep you got it. They might try it under the heading 'civil emergency'. It wouldn't be the first time, FDR served more than 2 terms.

yes CNBC is a complete joke. To be fair though the vast majority of MSM are a joke when it comes to how the markets work.

we haven't seen THIS sort of scare since 4th June 1963.

this time it is different. Trump means much lower stock prices, he has toned down the rhetoric recently about asset prices for obvious reasons. He is much smarter and better connected than the majority of people think he is. The only way to stop a correction now is for another fresh round of...

Guys, obviously today we have seen the biggest drop in US equities since Brexit day. The firing gun has sounded. As it sinks in that Trump will walk this election we are going to see a correction. The only thing that will stop it imo will be global coordinated QE. The tide has turned, this is...

i just checked your link and it says ICE Futures US is $110 for pro and non pro as per my original post. Yeah I know a tonne of brokers clear future spreads it was the specific issue with me having to double pay for the ICE data I was trying to get around. I normally get around the non pro issue...

ok thanks that's good to know. Presumably they show 15m delayed price. So you can join the bid or offer or hit market without real time data? I guess that could work as know the levels I want to get in at.

Any brokers out there that offer free ICE data or even just a live quote and no order book? I currently pay $220pm in my prop account for ICE US Futures (Softs) & ICE Europe (Energy). $110pm x 2 as per their data rule change money grab from April 2016. I am looking for a retail account for...

yeah. truth be told 'prop' has been used by many people to earn a buck out of the punter. i once visited a 'prop' firm which was a blatantly relieving punters of their fees. Filling a room full of desks with multimonitors with playing squawk doesn't mean it's a prop firm. be careful out there...
