Terry Crawley. He no longer trades. Yeah, someone went running to The Sun newspaper about him, they called it 'Rugs to Riches'.

checking big fugures was the way of life!!!!!

BTP no longer exists as a futures contract, due to the fact that the Lira no longer exists as a currency. All EMU currency bonds are hedged using the the Bund, Bobl and Schatz contracts on Eurex. Chris

I am a trader with Refco in the UK. This is the third arcade i have traded with in the last 5 yrs as a local, prior to that i was with ML for 6 years. I have been with Refco for about a year in one of the satelite offices outside London and can tell you the professionalism of the company...

Very much so. Looking at entirely different things now. No longer queue for anything, always seem to be giving away ticks to get stuff on and then giving away again to get out. But at least there is no one group bigger than the market over there. If bonds go bid on 2000, then you have a...

Spooky that the german word Schatz means 'darling' in English. Couldn't possibly be further from the truth. In 2003 i traded close to 2 million round turns on Eurex, now they get no more than 500 lots a day off me. I do must of my business on CBOT and CME now. I am reluctant to put my...

Rumour did the roundsthat Michigan was coming in at 76.0. Wouldn't be surprised to see bonds smacked this afternoon.

The mad thing is the ad in the FT was proposing a cooperation between LIFFE and Eurex. Liffe's attitude was 'yeah right, we are the biggest here and we will stay that way.' How they must wish they could go back in time. Also, you may do well to remember that no exchange has every taken a...

Actually, as someone who was on the Liffe floor and who has traded Eurex/DTB for 8 years, let me tell you that Eurex had the Bund listed for about 5 years before it took the business from Liffe. They had the liquidity in the Bobl and Schatz but had repeated failed to steel the bund. It changed...
