Do it in code or pig latin. All we need to do is get the enigma machine so we can avoid this prop firm. Or better yet do what the riddler does to Batman. Give us a clue .... I am dying to know who.
Here my take. Saddam and bin Laden don't really see eye to eye for Bin Laden's quest is to create an atmosphere of hate between one faith against the infidels. Saddam is just a plain ass#$ole. Don't forget his society is pretty secular unlike Taliban, and Iran. This tape accomplishes 3 things...
Fuc$#$ing Bin laden, he says don't be afraid of American bombs. If he is so brave against these bombs, why the f is he in a cave taking a shit next to his bed , next to his dining table.
I was looking at the Prem level today and it stayed pretty much on a tight range- not even going close to the buy/sell levels. Does that mean that no program trading took place or does that mean the players tighten their envelopes and execute program trades on a tighter buy/sell levels.
Any...
Riskless, you say that the opportunity is potentially in the fixed income options. How can an individual trader take advantage of this potential. Move to Chicago, apply for an option seat and be on the floor? That would go against the huge tide that is happening in the marketplace today-slow...
I think he is saying that the models being used underestimate the probability of the "100 yr storm " happening. As such, he does not mind taking these aymetrical bets where he might lost a majority of the time but will still come out ahead.
Trajan look into the way your new broker figures margin. Some brokers will take out your options value when figuring out your eqwuity. Eg. Acct is at 26K and you buy 5 straddles for 4K you are now below 25K which means you can't trade in/out. Other brokers who may be goverend by a difference SRO...
Do a search on Bright, Echo, etc and look at the hundreds of posts here about these kind of firms. You will find out that what you witnessed is very common. As sual, due dilligence is needed
Is the bond market expecting powell to put forth an unconvincing speech at the UN? I am basing my 'newbie' opinion on the fact that the FYT spread is going down which means that the 5 yrs are underperforming over the 10 yr which is the reverse of flight to quality. Do I have it backwards? Thanks
Looks like I picked the right time to stop trading e minis. I resolved today to go back to stocks and options after getting my ass kicked in futures. This AM I closed my account. With my luck I probably would have been short my 2 lots and whammo!! A/... would you like fries with that? If this is...
It happens most of the time in the options market. I have yet to see it happen in equities. It also happens all the time in open outcry markets when they take a print down if a floor broker's market got violated. Part of the risk. unfortunately. But in options it almost downright thievery on...
Try linnsoft.com. , aspenresearch, maybe neoticker and first alert. With linsoft you can create a custom instrument which then looks, acts just like a regular stock. i.e. You can set alarms to it, apply indicators to it,etc
good luck
Nice story silk. Could you imagine the dingbat recruiter who turned you down. Probably feeling the pain of not getting 20% of your 7 figures. Sorta like the Harvard admissions guy who turned down Bill Gates.
Are u kidding me, open a retail with SIPC and only get 90%. That is soooo not legal. Probably someone from that company mispoke or the trader who interepreted 90% misunderstood.
