anyone who buys a home in nyc for under 100 K in the 1970's and can possibly sell it in 2006 for close to 15 M is brilliant ~ I wonder if Jim is selling his wine collection too ! :)

thanks for the update ... I am happy to see the right thing was done via COMEX ... and hope CBOT will be able to do the same in the future if they have spikes like comex GC did tonight

we are all sitting ducks ... basically ... whenever this happens heck ... I am happy it happened ... I sold some gold $1-2 higher than I would have thought I could ... but I did not want to try and get greedy and go for more in case the prices were busted or lowered from their prints...

it used to be the CBOT would have these wild spikes now tonight it looks like COMEX has it too ( wonder what the official high is 30 - 31 - 32 -33 - 34 -35 ) you would think with the millions raised in the IPO's they could come up with a better algorithm to handle these nutty...

that when you think you will never find an edge again and see volatile markets again ... voila ! they can be seen again kachingo !!! :p

if one trades gold futures ... comex seems to have less fees than cbot at this time I seem to be saving about $2.00 a RT ... and the slippage is not an issue so far for me in gold silver is another story ... comex ( at least for me ) only lets me trade in 0.50 cent increments and...

seems like whenever some of those silver bugs get wildly bullish on silver ... its time to sell or at least not buy anymore come on now .... $100 silver ? yes ... kitco usually is pro - gold /silver the bulliondesk has more balanced commentary ( interesting to see that even the...

do foliofn or share builder allow odd lots for low commision ?

hello ... I am curious if there are any brokers that offer this ? ( trick question ) :p

one day they will write about one of our own ET posters whose assets and performance surely will grow like GROW ~ esp if he has returns like this in his track record ! :)

does NASDAQ ( INET ) or NYSE ( ARCA ) still allow a trader to put on 100 shares and scale out say in 25 share increments ? or has that been eliminated also from a traders toolbox? :p

I am seeing a message today that INET ( island ) does not accept orders less than 100 shares ( at least with my broker ) for execution is this a recent rule change by them ? are odd lots finished for traders ? ( I know this sounds funny for some of you ) but it has sometimes...

the most popular sites have alot of different sources sites like KITCO + THEBULLIONDESK here is an example of one source that was linked think www.thebulliondesk.com http://www.lbma.org.uk/publications/forecast%202006/forecast2006_gold.htm mind you this is a year end look at...

one possible alternative would be to hedge with another highly correlated derivative like ES if holding ER2 overnight or perhaps instead of ER2 overnight take home a small position in IWM * etf * or maybe a small position in IWM options (?) good luck ...

look ... this is all relative I believe this subject has been discussed before example account A ... makes 1% a day account B makes .05 % a day which account would you rather be ? if account A is a 100 K account ... then 1 % of that a day is approx 1K nice ! however...

liquidity in YG can be tight ... esp if I am trying to get in or out to hedge against fullsize gold ps ... I have traded SI tonight ... but not GC the mini on comex has not had any interest yet volumewise nor am I able to tell if I can even enter orders on it even if I wanted to ...

dude ... you will either be a rich man interviewed in Barrons or a poor ET fool in a few months please whatever you do ... do not play "god" good luck to you :eek:

as of last week comex was doing close to 1/2 the volume overnight in silver but cbot was doing more volume in gold overnight in my opinion ps ... I am unable to trade comex at this moment in time and even think the prices I see are wrong with my broker 's data feed

even the experts had price predictions all over the place for this yr http://www.lbma.org.uk/publications/forecast%202006/forecast2006_gold.htm

I am confused ... you want to know how much "retail" traders on ET "claim" to make a day ( based on their recent or yearly perfomance ) or how much they think they can make if they go prop and have unlimited ( or much larger ) BP ? :cool:
