Vogel? :cool:

The question is not "are markets free and un-manipulated". The question is "how does one profit from it". Every single second spent thinking about Blankfein, Geithner or Bernanke is a second one did not spend productively. Just my 2c.

Nobody forces us to take the other side of their trades.

http://www.reuters.com/article/marketsNews/idCNN1528622420091015?rpc=44 NEW YORK, Oct 15 (Reuters) - Capital One Financial Corp's (COF.N) U.S. credit-card defaults rose in September as more Americans lost their jobs, in another sign that consumers remain under stress. In a regulatory...

Which is obviously non-sense because fiat-currencies like Dollars earn interest. Fiat currencies can be exchanged for production assets which yield an average profit. Physical assets do not yield interest; they incur storage costs. This graph uses the interest paid on 90 day US T-Bills...

Wait for DX to base and breakout to the upside. This can take months or years. Once it happens it can develop into a very powerful move that will give plenty of opportunity to enter. I have 77.815 as a stop on DX short. So let's breach that FIRST before even considering a long entry. Why...

I logged in with the 899 version. You can add market access to AQS, and then add a contract for any stock in TWS and select AQS as the destination venue. Then it allows you to add a new page called "STOCK BORROW/LOAN". I'll check this tomorrow, as the markets regular hours are from 6:45 am -...

That's in 899 allegedly. I haven't tested this yet but here are the release notes: http://individuals.interactivebrokers.com/en/software/releaseNotes/TWS_Notes_899a.php "AQS®, the first automated, centrally-cleared electronic marketplace for stock borrow and loan transactions"

"but it is also a decade where the US Consumer has lost 25% of purchasing power from the perspective of stocks!" This guy says DXY mirrors purchasing power 1:1? When you thought you have heard it all. The moron who wrote it realizes that the DXY can double and USD purchasing power (in the US)...

Looks like IB is improving the way borrow/lend will work, including transparency for fees: http://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/software/pdfhighlights/PDF-StockLoanBorrow.php?ib_entity=llc

What a bunch of non-sense. In EUR, the SP500 is higher by 13.7%. In USD terms, it's higher by 20.7%.

:cool: Gotta love him

I'm long NOK myself.... @11% Does feel a little "windy" up here doesn't it, and it's up every day like clockwork, like risk free money :cool:

What you are getting so wound up about is nothing new. Wall St. works like that. They are selling a ponzi scheme and the higher the market flies the more they try to sell it. That's their business. This book has been published in the 1950s (during a rip roaring bullmarket), all this is...

Parity, why not. The OECD sees the AUD overvalued on a PPP basis by "only" 19%, which sounds a lot but pales in comparison to e.g. NOK which is 40% more expensive than the USD. Parity is just another 10% away, putting the PPP difference at 29%, nothing we haven't seen before. Historically...

Short term mean reversion (dip buying) is a known market inefficiency. This system could be a good attempt at exploiting that. Why don't you try shorting QQQQ (N100) exposure against the dip bought long positions? E.g at a 50% ratio, so instead of being long 100% you'd "only" be long 50%...

Where is the "news" exactly?

Michael Moore defending and making a stand for day traders and financial speculators who have NOTHING in common with his socialist views? That's be the day.

Moorer will goto MIT and Berkley chasing down engineers and computer scientists and hold big banners saying "HOW DOES IT FEEL TO DESTROY JOBS WITH PROGRESS AND AUTOMATION?????" :cool:

The change in the number of of US manufacturing jobs is different from the change in US share of global production. The numbers of employees in manufacturing can decrease (as it has) and the share of the US in global industrial production can remain stable or even increase (see graphic...
