A truly riskless system.. of starting an argument! At any rate, I love the discussion so far.

How would one hedge away the currency risk? I have a feeling the hedge eats up all of the potential gain. And how does an individual investor buy Brazilian bills in the first place?

http://www.dailytech.com/Students+Use+Speed+Cameras+to+Frame+Innocent+Drivers+Prank+Teachers/article13749.htm I would have so done this if the technology was in place when I was in high school.

If GPS units in new cars means fewer cops on the hiway with radar guns, me and my classic muscle cars are all for it. :D

In 4261 posts, this is the first one from Jack that made any sense at all. Did someone steal his account or is he on his meds? Time will tell. Also, loved the flames OP!

So you're long gold and short dow? Not a bad position, but it looks like you could take a lot of heat and have to sit on it for a while..

That's what the ES is, at any account size or margin rate. If you meant it's a hard hit as a percentage of your account, well, yes it is. But a single ES contract that goes against you 5 points is going to be a $250 loss whether you have $500, $5000, $50,000 or $500,000 in your account to begin...

Well what did they say?

Wow Jack, that's pretty far out there, even for you.

When I am fabulously wealthy, I am going on safari around the world just to look at the contraptions ingenious rural folk create to get through their day. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f9/Jiangxia-peanuts-9702.JPG

I don't have much to add, except wow Ayn Rand was not a handsome woman.

Jesus, we got Jack talking to a shill account. Nude pics of Jessica Alba making out with Angelina Jolie couldn't save this train wreck..

..up in the last hour, the last day, the last week, the last month, the last 3 months, the last 6 months, the last year.. Were you arguing with me or agreeing?

Lol OK :P I'm an aspiring algo trader myself. Just wondering how rough rice got on your radar in the first place. If you're worried about getting r@ped, why not r@peseed futures? There's a joke in there somewhere, but I don't think I made it..

Good trading! If I may be so bold, how did you know to short on the first trade, where price would have to break a previous swing low to be profitable? I would have waited a bar or two, seen price move up and away from that swing low, and gone long. Obv the wrong move, so that's why I'm...

I wasn't recommending the ES over NQ or YM, just relating why liquidity would be greater there. I really doubt that there are many ET'ers that throw 70 or 100 lots order around any futures market. We are generally paper traders, at best a single car. But ES, NQ and YM are *extremely* tightly...

Ask "Why?" Why would the stock market in general be manipulated? Short term, because everyone looks at the stock market. If it's going up, then people think the economy is good. If it's going down, people think the economy is bad. The economy has been bad (in real life) so we need to make it...

What is the purpose of speculating in an illiquid market? What are you hoping to accomplish that you couldn't do in an instrument with more volume?

Pretty sure those are all of the MOC orders.
