    YM Traders

    Has anyone heard any more info on the Big Dow? Is the launch date still March 20th? What is the symbol going to be? I would figure the CBOT would hype this a little bit more than one simple news release. IMO, this could give really cut into CME's ES business in a way the YM never really did.

    Goog

    Google doesn't give guidance. This type of attitude creates a potential timebomb by not disclosing future trends. So I am not sure what anyone is crying about.. This easily could be the beginning of the end, or not. It seems to me this lack of communication is meant to hide the truth whenever...

    Would it have been better that he kept slowing growth issues to himself? If you are a trader, this has been a great day! I really don't feel so bad for the investors.. or the CFO.

    YM Traders

    Okay, so I just started trading the YM and had a simple question about liquidity. I understand that I can probably get in and out with about 10 contracts without slippage. But lets say my daily target is 10 points everyday. And I want to make a million dollars over 12 months (cause I am one...

    Advanced Course:For people who know everything

    I recently gave up coffee for 3 apples in the morning. (I also gave up bfast entirely.) I can attest to the energy boost that it personally gives me is far greater than caffeine. Obviously its more healthy, but as to the specific reasonings, I am at a loss. Hopefully more people can add to this...

    start with usd 50?

    Once you wire your money to a different country, you can kiss it goodbye. They have no US "offices." I highly doubt they have ANY offices at all. Their domain name is registered in switzerland: Registrant Contact: Marketiva Corporation Administrative Department...

    Cnbc

    Seriously, I was trying to listen to the testimony and had to change the channel. I can't believe these type of tactics are actually increasing viewership.

    CBOT Launches New $25 "BIG" Dow Product

    Wait, wouldn't brokers take advantage of this by charging more per contract negating the the commision advantage versus the mini dow?

    Trading in Brazil?

    Wow, thats really random. I just got back from Rio today and stayed at the Luxor. I consider Leme a much safer part of Copacabana and was never hassled once. The Luxor really is much cheaper and far nicer than the other hotels in the area. I never heard of it before I got down there though. Just...

    Interactive Data to Acquire Lycos Inc.’s Quote.com

    My only point is that the number of people Qcharts would lose if they charge a few extra dollars for a solid, reliable program would be completely offset by customers who are looking for a cheaper alternative to CQG. And I am sure Esignal has the statistics on how many people they actually lose...

    Interactive Data to Acquire Lycos Inc.’s Quote.com

    Sorry AAA, but not everyone feels that way. I would be more than happy to stick with Qcharts and Esignal if they charged a little bit more but with a SOLID data feed. I don't know many professionals who would go with something cheaper as an alternative. They just want something that works and is...

    Interactive Data to Acquire Lycos Inc.’s Quote.com

    Thats hilarious. I would rather stop trading before i use a sub-quality interface like Esignals. Hopefully they use Qcharts with an Esig data feed.

    Interactive Data to Acquire Lycos Inc.’s Quote.com

    My thinking is that IDC is a far more solid company than Lycos which it seems like never supported quote.com. Hopefully this will extend the life of quote.com versus killing it by neglect. For IDC its brilliant cause I doubt they could hire tech guys that could provide them with a superior...

    How do I get noticed

    Wow, its hard to believe this is a serious post but with no question you should take the JPM job. You will be on a real career path to trading if you work at such a prestigious firm. Its much easier to get a real trading job once you are on the "inside." Why would you want to work at the bottom...

    Donald Trump is doing seminars now

    Well the branding of his name is central to his success. It is my understanding that many of his real estate ventures are done through partnerships which leverages his name with very little capital investment. Take the Trump International condo project in Vegas. I think most of the apts were...

    Morgan fires 4 after strip club visit

    Okay taking devil's advocate, this is a brilliant move by Morgan Stanley. I am sure part of the sexual harassment settlement involved changing the sexist environment of wall street by explicitly stating that you CANNOT take clients to strip clubs because this alienates women employees. Why...
