Nice work...and Mav...kudos for your remarks Someone who relentlessly defends themselves clearly needs to maintain a facade. Look at at the arrogance that this person does not think others can find written evidence to the contrary,lol. Anyway , no need to worry..there's a sucker born every...

to earn more than most in any profession you need an edge obviously. i doubt that many who earn well really are even aware they have the "edge" so many here talk of...they just are too busy going forward doing better than others around them. i have said here before, despite what others here...

you do realize he was asking about the front switch (spread)? the futures spreads behave very differently from straight up futures.

austin, thanks for saying what so many of us "wanted to say" lol big shots post ur blotters!!!

i am told nitro was in one of the posted mushroom clouds and made it out as dust. happy forth guys!

try being married and raising a family to fix that boredom issue, jack.

Yes, futures. The main reason for the switch is since I trade them in complex combos, IB auto liquidate going haywire is a real concern. Add in commission savings ,it is all is for the better.

week MTM change 6/23 to 6/27 @ IB i am transitioning completely to Advantage Futures next week so my postings will greatly diminish until i get all settled. again, i thank Rallymode for the recommendation...i'm so sorry i waited this long to move it all. i have had a small six figure...

guys, i know its maddening..but just consider..once vol returns to even "below" normal from this highly suppressed level...longs and shorts will coexist and prosper when that time comes. until that time comes; i do feel bad for those who are emotionally biased and act on it.

posting similar to fxwannaB ...big pic pain in the butt. week was ok due to vol..but of course thursday i took the whole day off..who knows if i could have done better or worse. IB reported; but similar gains from advantage futs not posted. lets get some 13-15 spot vol next week!

thats it..there is no new product or central bank that is suppressing vol. its just the way the macro works. when it turns vol will be back and everyone will be shocked like they are now in current conditions. patience.

ok, so last month was pretty good..so with recent action i'm ranging -30% -40% vs 2013. sizes are smaller due to margins and i am having a real hard time extracting earnings in this vol. obviously i'm earning better percentages at advantage (thank you)...but i am struggling. 2013 totals were...

for those who are busy but still want to share the good and bad do a weekend previous week shot like i do. week ending 6/6/14 i know there has been much complaining re the low vol. the fact is unless you simply have been levered long on this bull run there is no way possible P/L can be...

You were wrong. Post the blotter or if you cannot post in another thread. This is a great thread due to solid rules; a true long running honest thread. I will not let it down while I still hold interest. Moderators take notice.

yeah, i'd feel bad for him if it was actually real money from thread inception. in any case, its the perma bears and perma bulls that help me to pay the bills..so thank you nitro's of the world!

its not a dumb question by any means. vix is very hard to master as its far from intuitive. the premium is currently 1.41 to spot ...and one (me) can argue barring a crash after ECB and NFP spot vol will come in strongly..this makes longing june difficult. even on a vol rise due to the...

It will take some serious vol to drive June Vix higher

lookee here mav... these guys only heard of 2008..what happened since they have no idea either.

serious q to Martinghoul; do you see a scenario where these central banks unload equities in a manner that is possibly faster than the markets can handle? ( a black swan world event is not part of the scenario as its inherently always possible; more like a "decision" to unload)

lol, nice find, what a POS. all these scammers deserve some serious jail time man love. i have the paper version to read at lunchtime.
