    Heard of CL for a long time, decided to give it a try today

    Let me get this straight, you waited until the very minute of the crude release to try trading oil for the first time ever? Then proceed to buy the bottom, sit on a fat loser, and cover for 3 ticks profit? I'd call that jumping in the deep end. As for what contract to trade, go to the...

    Is a full T1 fast enough for direct access trading?

    You have a T1. The tech says a T1 isn't always enough. Are you just going to brush that off as an "automatic response"? A T1's bandwidth is capped at 1.544Mbps (~200 kilobytes/second), which isn't very much. Think about it.. if your broker suddenly tries to send you a whole bunch of...

    We're Running Out of Oil! BP Finds A Mere 3 blln Barrels 250 Miles from Houston

    The continental crust on planet Earth is typically from 30 km (20 mi) to 50 km (30 mi) thick. If you could drill 25 miles into this crust at the right location, you've reached unlimited geothermal power from the Earth's core. Oil won't be needed.

    TradeStation vs. IB + Ninja

    ...and some brokers are as low as $2000! You'll think "Oh I can make it with $2000," but you can't. I started with $3000 last year when I was 18 and I haven't lost as much as many here have (still above $2k), but I'm waiting until I can properly fund my account with at least $5000 to start...
