Is it that unbelievable that DB streams their own quotes? Personally i dont know (or care), but it would appear DB wouldn't really need assistance from someone like fxcm to make a market in ccys. RBS or UBS don't use Oanda quotes on their oanda-based retail software either.

Doesn't make my statement untrue. Go get your Hull edition from the shelf. Surely swaps got nada to with it? Explain the qualitative difference of economic danger in hedging rate risk with i.e. bunds versus a similar swap. I'm very sorry that you are pissed off, but there is still no point...

If you don't understand the risks involved you can piss away a lot of money with just about any instrument, including futures and forwards (by the way just FYI - a future IS a forward). A rate swap is a fairly primitive instrument, i don't see how they should be any more dangerous than the...

You can exchange currency on IB or Oanda and wire it out. For example, trade your EURs for USDs and wire them out to close a debit balance on your USD bank account. Real enough?

Its not so uncommon in the pro segment, google for "give-up agreement". Unsure why this should be necessary in retail space.

Yes, it would appear even the shills gave up on this forum-section. There are a few other sites (i.e. forexfactory), but they are all really terrible.

FYI, there is a Tick-Filter functionality built into Neo - so depending on how you want to preprocess incoming ticks this may be possible without re-writing the IQfeed data interface.

That doesn't sound too confidence-inspiring. Beeing vaguely familiar with italian culture, i'm figuring, if Greece hid X in off-balance sheet transactions, Italy hides probably X^X.

As a european citizen (from one of the paying countries) i'm currently thinking about how to hedge against this clusterfk too. Obviously long the more stable ccys, but how/where? We won't be able to pay the italian and spanish bills too on top of Greece, so when the big european domino-day...

I'd use Oanda for that. They have sub-accounts in various ccys (including cad and usd). You can also convert and wire out in either ccy using their physical delivery service (so much for virtual reality). Alternatively, Interactive Brokers, which can do the same thing.

There have been fat-fingers in deeper markets than CL (i.e. Bund). But this was GR downgrade obviously.

You can have a look at Neoticker. It can draw all the charts you want and can also use bid or ask prices to construct charts. For spreads its not point&click though, you have to tell it exactly what to do using its formula language and it sucks for order-entry. But for charting, its really a...

Should be possible, in the drop-down menu where it says "Standard" by default. At least it worked for me. I'm probably going to sign up with them in the near future.

moarla: if you switch to "Enhanced VWAP" in the top-side menu you should see about the same like in my screenshot

wwwnet: i recommend reading the cnx manual.

Thanks Is there a website where one finds such information without access to a bbg-terminal?

Anyone knows when the result of the greek action today is released?

Well in that case, they are all horribly wrong. Mkt closed around 1.3495 on friday 9th.

In a 24 hour market you need to define your own "EOD" since there is no official session close. Most firms use 17:00 EST to break the daily bars, but there are many that use another time. There are bound to be timezone related differences.
