    Bitcoin’s Selloff Driven by Options, but Also Interest Rates, Fed Policy

    Even 5% is tumbling IMO. But other people can think otherwise. All those banks and exchanges (like CME etc.) do not even recognize or support cryptos. But they want to profit from the "trading" of them. This is why during the old Gold Rush, the folks who made most of the money were the tool...

    Bitcoin’s Selloff Driven by Options, but Also Interest Rates, Fed Policy

    Ya, if you only want 15% up and down, come to crypto. In 2022, when Fed tightens money policy and take off the excess $$$ out of the money, Crypto is going to tumble. The only matters is the excess cash in the market. Crypto has no economic backing to it. The clowns at SEC and CFTC do not...

    Bitcoin’s Selloff Driven by Options, but Also Interest Rates, Fed Policy

    Bitcoin is supposed to be holder of value, or quasi-money. So what Bitcoin is? It crumbles under market stress. It is not backed by any government (except Ecuador?), but by some clowns hidden at some dark corners). Nobody knows where Bitcoin price should go. That is the problem. It is a...

    Omicron-fuelled volatility deals hedge funds worst monthly return since March 2020

    In general, hedge funds have bee lagging general stock indexes for the past several years. So it is puzzling that institutions still pile $$$ into hedge funds. Most of the high flier hedge funds are on leverage and on huge margins. Leverage/margin is the heat of the hedge fund industry...

    Swing Trading Futures overnight

    The question is what people you are "listening" to. "Swing" is a general term of bigger market ups and downs. This is typically some mini cycle. In general trading/investing styles are separated by day trading, swing trading and (long term) investing, by the trading/investing holding...

    Swing Trading Futures overnight

    For stock index futures, there are many ways traders can trade. Scalping: HFT is part of it. You use some automated system to scalp the market. Best if during the high volume time. Do not hold overnight position Pure day trading: Take a position in the morning, extended market and at open...

    Swing Trading Futures overnight

    It is just absurd to keep arguing what "swing" and "trading" is truly is. The definitions can certainly vary. Just use common sense. This is so typical of ET style. I guess some people just want to add to post counts.

    Swing Trading Futures overnight

    As I said, it is a broad definition. You can say it is a holding or trading position for one month. No difference.

    Swing Trading Futures overnight

    I would not say which one is better, day trading or overnight swing trading. With overnight swing trading, you take on more risk. But you do not have to take a shallow stop loss and close out your position by end of day. Find some style that better suits your own needs.

    Biden announces U.S. release oil from SPR to help lower gas prices

    ESG and anti fossil oil is the foundation of Biden platform. He won't abandon it. Most American people will be tired of him and vote him or his successor out of office. It is as simple as that. Biden's last 2+ years in office will be very underwhelming. He just can't talk out of any crisis.

    IB Same Margins for Front and Back Contracts?

    I think that is the setup, not TWS itself.

    IB Same Margins for Front and Back Contracts?

    Mine has no margin info. I do not want to go through the "config" to change it. Not sure if TWS version has anything to do with it.
