    How Obama pretends to replace the jobs war creates?

    with all due respect- you're a prick. nice grouping of leftist propaganda about our soldiers- of which i am one. yeah, all baby killers and torturers. your post could only be written by someone who has no idea what it's like to serve his country. without American soldiers, this would be a...

    How Obama pretends to replace the jobs war creates?

    i've seen a post like this b4 on ET. wtf are you guys talking about? you act as if it's WWII and 1/2 the men got drafted. what, you think the war ends and the Army is going to free these soldiers of their enlistment commitment? war over= troops are at Ft. Bragg instead of camp freedom. Army is...

    Commissions are becoming ridiclous

    when your acct reaches the size of those who complain, then you'll understand. spend $15,000+ per month on commissions and you'll have an appreciation for just how much a 'measly' dollar or 2 per trade adds up to.

    Any potential good news that will support the financials?

    i started a thread about this last week b4 this news came out: http://elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=155845 i wonder about it now though. when the news of the 3.12 meeting hit, it did NOTHING- no bounce whatsoever. that really surprised me (and cost me some money- shocking)...

    Is Buffett getting margin calls?

    i take it the margin requirements still move with the value of the contract though, yes?

    Is Buffett getting margin calls?

    remember, i think last year, when she flew on his jet with him on a trip and she was in her jammies? it was kinda creepy. she kinda has that 'i'd blow him cause he's powerful (or to get the exclusive story)' look about her. can't blame the Buff for taking the bait- hell, i'd fuck her. in...

    Wall street signaling all is dead? blowoff Crash imminent

    it's a well known fact within the linux community that a break of 550 by the ES will cause an asteroid to break it's orbit and smash into the waters off the east coast. duh. btw, love the fact that this was put under 'wall street news'. you're slipping Ivan...

    ES Journal Archive (2009 - 2010)

    yep, need the big bar. THIS is where a PPT could actually make a difference with very little input.

    Short DAX at 7740

    same same yet again. DAX down only 1 1/2% with ES futures down 1 1/2%. considering the DAX rallied 5.5% yesterday, seems out of whack. ehhh...

    Short DAX at 7740

    wtf. the outperformance of the DAX vs the ES is really fucking with me. was short going into that run up- blew thru my stop (had a 7 pt buffer for the limit- wtf), and was down 35 points in a blink. good thing it double topped for me to get me out alive. AS: our thoughts that the danger...

    lol @ GE

    i'm not 'lol' at this- this is rather sad- GE is about as American as apple pie. if what everyone thinks isn't true (the East Europe, commercial real estate and black hole of derivatives make GE Chapter 13), GE better find a way to tell us. Imelt thinks it's 1998 and the CEO buying some...

    Short DAX at 7740

    geesh- did the same thing as yesterday. when the ES broke 700, the volume came in on the bid and refused to let it take out 3770. this divergence is making it a lot harder to trade this thing. btw, what platform is that?

    Short DAX at 7740

    is this thru the options on DAX futures contracts, or an exchange traded SPY SPY equivalent? ie: ES=SPY DAX=? i ask because i've looked at the options on futures and they seem awfully thin to trade- esp. if you really want to get out "NOW". as to today, i agree that the danger is on the short...

    Short DAX at 7740

    is the Eurex down or is it my POS provider (who has me on terminal hold)?

    In 100 years this will just be a blip on the chart

    lol. yep, when the son of god is running things, shit gets done. wonder if christ is jealous. if so, we could have a sibling rivalry on our hands.

    Anyone else think they'll suspend mark 2 market to force a bounce?

    i don't disagree with your point about unknowns, but the fact remains that if the current FASB M2M rules had been in place back in the RTC times, the banks would have been nearly as fucked then as they are now. the rule does not account for extraordinary times devoid of liquid markets. in an...

    Anyone else think they'll suspend mark 2 market to force a bounce?

    you forget, the US is now the United Socialists of America. with comrades Obama, Reid and Pelosi running the politburo, the hated investor class will be punished, not rewarded.

    Anyone else think they'll suspend mark 2 market to force a bounce?

    yeah, i don't see the uptick making a difference. in fact, i think it would backfire if it was used alone right now. 'THEY' would be like, 'that's all you've got', and it would prolly sell off. i see M2M as the only 'sure thing' that would be easy and not mean another x trillion $'s (not that...

    Anyone else think they'll suspend mark 2 market to force a bounce?

    i would say most could agree that suspending mark to market would bring a serious rally. they don't have too many arrows in the quiver, but this one would work- at least in the short term. i figure if we don't bounce 'naturally' today, that it's coming soon. thoughts...
