if youve got 100 to buy..throw 100 on the bid and get ready to bang out the offer if it starts to go. this sounds easier than it is of course. It seems like if ther are 250 or 300 left on the offer and you come in and scoop 100 of em you can sometimes get the market to go bid with you. im sure...

I dont really think this true. I work for a MM firm and trade strictly es futures. (and some yms) I am mainly hedging option trades and speculating a little. I think it could look that way if thats what you wanted to see. There is a lot of spoofing ect...but it is what it is. The liquidity is...

the prem doesnt really work that way. it doesnt take future events into consideration. it is simply the interest rate minus the dividends received. it really has nothing to do with supply/demand like other commodities. jim

we are a MM firm...currently we have the RL to SP correlation at about 89%. jim

i know a couple of locals who semi retired off of VNs blow up at the merc. he sorrta got screwed. i mean he put himself in the position but when his clearing firm came to cover his positions for him lets just say the locals didnt let him out easy. one local made 3mil that day alone.i dont know...

ive opened two accts inthe last year with no hard inquiries. i dont think its true katesdp. jim

do some research on credit forums before u pay them. sometimes paying these off are worse than juts letting them go off your credit in 7 years. dont be scared by there only 24 hour crap. these guys will tell you ANYTHING to get you to pay. you can also negotiate with these bastards. i tried to...

I dont think its anyones objective..its just economics. Look at the thousands of people flooding in from Mexico everyday. This is also making the world more flat. This alone will and is bringing down wages in the US. I love your side of the argument and I wish we could do something about it but...

dddooo. i see what u are saying but it all just comes down to simple economics. i mean why are Ford and GM in such bad financial shape? Because the cars coming from overseas are cheaper/better. Same basic economics with what was said earlier about CEOs of major corporations. If there was no...

you cant expect to pull up this site and get a dead on estimate of your house but i think its a great start. at first my house was showing 70k less than i paid two years ago. OUCH. but once i updated it to reflect the current bedrooms and bathrooms i found it close to my own estimate. i think...

Sometimes rick santeli (sp) on cnbc is at the merc in the afternoon. from what i can see the pit is very dead. He stands behind a broker that i used to arb orders to. Three years ago this broker employed 4 clerks, a trade checker, and two other brokers full time. now i see him standing there all...

i see your point...but what if you automatically took the other side of every order a new trader made...ya think you could make money? with a tiny bit of imagination i can understand what little duck is trying to get at. jim

right..in theory i think you would be right. its an interesting concept. let your losers run and cut your profits short. if a new trader was given this scenario one would tend to think it would be hard for him to lose all the $. jim

i know what are trying to get at...losing the $ wouldnt be too hard. just go to H eurodollars and buy the offer then sell the bid over and over. you are thinking it should be equally as hard to lose as to win. interesting thought though. jim edit...i had it backwards

i dont know what to trust..i think ill just put on a big position and go home. huummm...long or short. jim

my redi is giving me quotes but my TT machine is frozen......however i can still execute on TT..just the quotes are frozen. jim

Are these quotes for monthly round trips or daily? thx Jim

Buy a piece of sh*t house in an average area. Move into it and spend the next two years fixing it up like a model home. After two years sell this beast and keep 100% of the profits. Pay no taxes up to 500k for a married couple or 250k for a single person. Rinse and repeat. I think in Chicago...
