quite truthfully..i watch the oi, vol etc in the other new cfe curves , somehow i never looked at VA...promising oi it seems. of course i cannot get ib to quote the curve yet. if someone knows the correct symbol i'm interested. sle, guys like you mostly trade these against another product...

bone..what u are saying are objective facts regarding margin costs ..but what u leave out is the directional futures trader has no model or feel for spreads as a trade. spreads are not intuitive..few look at them. u know that.

Sorry, TA is part of the model....how could it not be? Support , resistance, etc all works in my thinking.

As previously stated i live in ct...near newtown... Any of u guys with school age children have police at ur schools today in Other states? My son is in public sixth grade...full set of our finest and my daughter is at a private all girls hs, full town police ...so any other states with...

Thank you g, The first thing I want is to earn a good living...but for my posts here is to try to show it is possible to make money trading, despite the guys , writers etc telling u it cannot be done. I have done so for 20 years, slow and steady. Its not easy as I may have mentioned it takes...

these 2 are my favorites due to being very responsible for my best earnings the past 5yrs (out of 20yr trading career). i still believe no one can tell you how to out earn the market..but these two gave me a market to look at and some idea's to exploit within it. rallymode atticus for...

austin, my point is that's it's "harder" , that's all. i'm still making ok money , but i agree with iceman that more vol would be better for those of us who are having a harder time being "patient" lol

hey nazz..he didn't say no one can earn here... granted the 2008-2011 vols were nuts...but as a "typical mean reversion trader"(i happen to be one of them) some vol higher than this yr is better. . i'm trying to adapt myself, but if not for my higher capital base it would be very hard to make...

I have the Verizon galaxy note with 5 inch plus screen...u better see it in person before u buy it. Its real big..and I have big man hands too...gl

Sure, all possible..despite sounding bullish in my 20 yrs trading the 2008-2011 es daily swings of 50 points were my best...I just do not see what wave predicted unless an unpredictable non t/a type event occurs.

Assuming you are sincere and actually trading this call; I see the only thing doing what you predict as a severe geopolitical event shock. Baring that type of event I put those calls in with the same people who are predicting December 21 as the end of the world.

ok, that is funny. this board just boggles my mind on the amount of numbnuts who try to trade.

although i just trade the futures...calling one of those ridiculous etn, etf's to move large on the open imo is a pure market direction trade...no special edge as they roll in/out of the vix futures pretty cleanly.

nice job so far!!

losing day -$5,651..but so far one of my best weeks. and Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow Americans!

cmon, how about those 2400 modems and prodigy...had to be like 1991 or so. too bad (for me) i never could foresee what was yet to come. still now, lol

am i getting in rallymode territory yet? second good day in futs. +$43,000

+2.5% for nov so far. would be much higher without equity basket that got smoked.
