    Is Trading Just Guessing?

This is the way I think when...

    Dell XPS 13 looks like my next laptop

    13.3" screen? does it come with an oversize magnifying glass to be able to see it without straining your eyes? I would never trade on any laptop with anything smaller than a 17" screen.

    What are the lowest commissions possible on the es

    Paying a daily rate for trading unlimited # of ES contracts is just a rumor you heard. Even having a seat on the exchange will not get you an unlimited daily rate. The ES is only offered by the CME. The govt is coming down hard on HFTs that try to quote stuff and market manipulation. And...

    You hit the nail right on the head... Chicago CTA, I find it hard to believe that you are ignorant enough to think that the people of Iran are the ones calling the shots, in your dreams. Even experts from the middle east will tell you that the mullahs and Ahmadinejad's hard line cronies...
