She thinks she does. She was wrong about an email's context earlier. I don't see how she's going to (or any of them) unearth new information. She and her colleagues walked in with a certain view of what happened, and that's what they'll walk out with.

I'm not convinced that the people grilling the four GS guys have any idea what they are talking about.

You can use a third-party tool to pull data from IQFeed and save yourself the yearly developer fees. I'm using QCollector with IQFeed and can pull in timed updates for any symbol or portfolio of symbols on any timeframe. QC also has a developer interface, and from what I can tell, it's free to...

I'd like to vote for SPY continuing simultaneous to the ES addition. It's relevant to my interests.

Google Finance featuring an article from TheStreet entitled "Stocks Edge Lower as Earnings Optimism Fades". No shiz. This bull taking its foot off the gas pedal or something? Btw, lest I forget to put my money where my mouth is: I'm holding 40 SPY 118 puts for May, bought at $1.54 on...

I'm probably going to out myself as a n00b here, but I'm having trouble understanding how someone could short a couple million shares of SPY, apparently outright. Check attached screenshot. Did they sweep the book? Is it real? Why does this happen?

Get in touch with someone who can put you very close to the interbank Forex market, such as Currenex or Hotspot FX. You want direct access, where spreads aren't being touched by your brokerage. Now negotiate a commission structure where the fees you pay, plus the spreads you're seeing, are less...
