WOW! Well so much for smart f*ckers! I didnt see this. Jim

Honeywell options trading today. Specifically the May 37.5 calls. These have traded over 12k today at prices/skews that imply a possible stock jump. Maybe a 5-12% takeover premium..(just as an example). Maybe an aerospace merger? Our equity desk has some smart f*ckers on it. Just something to...

Once you boot up a drive, either one, I believe you can access the other drive as far a programs and files. I dont do this due simple because my "work" drive is really clean and i dont want to take the chance of picking up a virus or something by accident. (from the NON work drive) As you can...

Just wanted to add....my buddy originally recommended an external drive. I had some problems specific to my machine that would not allow this. So maybe an external is the way to go. Jim

This is the same setup I have at home. It works great. I am amazed at how fast the "work" hard drive boots up. My buddy from work helped me set it up so Im not much help. I can tell you that when I boot up the computer it will prompt me to choose a drive. It will default to non work hard drive...

I got the new SFO (magazine) for this month and they have an article about him in there. You might check that out. I feel asleep friday after work reading it ...so Im not much help. Jim

I have a Gl win on my desk for a backup. I dont use it that often but when I do it seems very realiable. I have had some TT issues lately with slowness..when this happens I switch to GL and it works great. The only complaint I have is that the actual front end or software used to enter the order...

Thanks for the response. You are right about the expiration being the 28th. I dont know what I was looking at. It sounds like its just a case of follow the liquidity. This was my first time dealing with the roll and i thought i would ask the expert. you! as you know here in the US we start...

Question for Def or who ever can answer. last night 4/27/05 in USA 4/28/05 in Hong Kong. The April contract is still the front month but the May looked to be way more liquid and alot tighter. I am wondering when the majority of players switch to the next month? HKFE web site says that the...

I was there! I picked my wife up from work and we got there about 7:30. As we were walking over she said....."now, who are these people"? I started thinkin about it and realized i didnt know what anyone looked like either. I felt a little dumb. I thought I would just look for the loud...

Nice posts guys! Mokwit, how about a little color next time? haha (sarcasm). Thanks for the insight! Alot more people on here trading it than I thought. It was a little rough last night with the high AND low of the session being made in the first ONE minute bar. zzzzzzzz. I didnt make any...

I made my first HSI trades last night thru IB. I am using Sierra charts so Im not much help when it comes to Ensign. However i have heard good things about it (Ensign). I had some trouble getting Sierra connected to IB as well. But with a little patients (ok alot) I was able to do it. I am VERY...

Some of you Eurodollar guys probably remember this. I think the guys badge was FOE..or FO. Big black poofy hair. Anyway, he got choked on an Altoid in the middle of the pit and passed out on the floor. The floor paramedics and a bunch of people gathered round. The whole floor was watching at...
