    JPM and Jamie Dimon Are Serving the Free Lunch

    please stop it or you may prove even more ignorant than those 99% ET-ers mentioned above. what about if total NPV on trades with each counterparty is about zero? Note that in derivatives all is done under ISDA MA + CSA legal framework, i.e. netting clause. in other words the information...

    JPM and Jamie Dimon Are Serving the Free Lunch

    yeah. and 99% of ET members are clueless when it comes to derivatives... can you even interpret these numbers? what do they stand for, how it relates to risk, what risks are they, what info is missing to be able to make judgements and comparisions with respect to risk/capital etc. gfy

    Short the dollar hard

    difficult to call currencies to start with. my position is in AUD+CAD (against my natural mix of EUR+USD) but I entered some times ago - I am not sure it is such a screaming buy right now. a lot of misconceptions above, e.g.: 1. EUR is considered weaker than USD by most. to go long USD...

    Warning: Don't trust IB's TWS Portfolio page or Trades Report for positions

    Warning: Don't trust IB's TWS Portfolio page or Trades Report for positions

    i strongly suggest traders/programmers to put OldTrader on ignore with respect to TWS threads. he is consistently destroying useful threads on TWS problems. recently these threads are actually being used more often by IB staff as IB starts to work on its better public (retail) image. i know...

    Looking to trade off a Laptop while traveling

    bullshit. there are good advices and there are bad advices. this "elite" board is full of the later. I have never met anybody carrying 5-10kg of trading equipment while backpacking (and I did that for a long time). Your suggestion weights at least 25kg - you must be joking. I second JamesJ...
