    EUR/USD option spreads in IB, no prices....

    edit: I was told by CME that the globex traded options expired at 9am, and the pit traded ones expired at 2pm yesterday?

    EUR/USD option spreads in IB, no prices....

    Am I correct that XT currency options expired today at 10 am est? If one is long an option that expires in the money, I assume it is exercised automatically -- when exactly does the futures position show up in one's account?

    FX trading/is that so easy or am i going to get smoked

    Maybe you are a natural, who knows. But calling fx "easy" is just asking the market to spank you. :)

    Getting disciplined

    Essentially, you have to really believe in your plan for any chance that your discipline holds over the long term -- you have to truly be convinced (aka completely understand why your edge works, not just by what the "numbers" say) that ANY deviation from your plan is detrimental (otherwise, you...

    Peter Thiel up 230% with Soros-style fund

    So he's been betting on a stronger dollar? How dated are these positions by the time bloomberg gets a hold of them?

    I figured out how to sell my system, all are welcome to come and BID

    We're not saying its impossible, we're saying it's not possible that YOU are capable of it, given the fact that: A) You're a part-timer with results that are based on demos. B) You've likely just blown out your account fading moves these past few weeks. Am I right? You probably did...

    I figured out how to sell my system, all are welcome to come and BID

    Wouldn't a professional trade an irregular/imperfect pattern as long as the risk/reward was favorable enough? If he's not coinz (which he is probably not), all I'll get in response is :confused: But if on the slight chance that it just happens to be our old friend coinzy, the value of...

    I figured out how to sell my system, all are welcome to come and BID

    Doubling every four months a tiny account in currency futures is not very impressive at all. If you had doubled your account these past 2 weeks, instead of blowing out, then you could at least say you were paying attention. I'm a shade over 30 btw lol.

    He must have blown out his fx account these past few weeks shorting into the euro or pound. God the transparency.

    One must admire the inspiration that can come from a demo account. The virgin mary on grilled cheese couldn't hold a candle.

    Currency carry trade

    You mean if it will work or not? It will work until it doesn't. Would you invest in a Google ETF which tracks the upside gains in a stock called GOOG? So far, an ETF of that kind would show an excellent 2-year record . . . As for how well it rates vs other ETF's, that's beyond my ken...

    how would you sell a working system, if you had a better one

    Sorry ES, I don't do demo. Otherwise, I'd be in bed with coinzy ages ago. And he came with free jokes!

    how would you sell a working system, if you had a better one

    So you'd have us believe you are a full time scholar with the time and resources to develop not one but 2 triple digit return systems, while straining to pay for your tuition and rent? Who is insulting who here? Pray tell, for what degree are you wasting your time studying for?

    how would you sell a working system, if you had a better one

    Why not just take a cash advance on a credit card? Borrow 10 or 20K at 5% for the life of the loan, the interest would be peanuts compared to what you are netting.

    how would you sell a working system, if you had a better one

    I dunno, it would take at least 4 years to turn 5k into 20 million -- do ya think it's really worth the effort?
