    30-Year T-bond Tick Increases to 1/32nd on August 30, 2009

    I agree. Easier to spread trade and for those that use stops you can actually get out at your stop price (instead of those nasty 10-15 tick spikes).

    Why can't I get a job? Recent Grad, 3.7 GPA, Good Exp, Year and a half of searching..

    Haven't read all the replies so this may be a repeat but since you have no "experience" I would advise learning a specific skill and learn it well. Learn some front end or back end coding for trading systems. There are too many experienced workers out there for hiring managers to select from...
