Hello energy traders, Can you please explain why all expiries up to september trade in the 2.30s and after that they are all in the 2.20s. Is it related to the end of the driving season ? Why such a drastic difference? Thanks a lot.

Millenium Man made 280K$ yesterday. For sure decent is different for him. For you it's just pleasing your boss, adding lines to your resumes , be respected in what you do and get in line/slightly above in terms of income, but not him. A lot of people would accept a diminishing income for...

Even the UE commission... If that's not dead...:)

OK thanks a lot. I wanted to use CME's free option order entry application( don't recall the name ) but my other broker don't support it.

OK thanks a lot.

It's up to the MM who post bid/ask to the butterfly market to be in line with the implieds. If he is making an error, somebody will arb and he will lose money. However, since there is just one spread compared to three if you leg in with the components, it is usually a narrower market, more...

I don't know at all. Nitro was talking about the "complex order book" of CBOE one day. It might be related.

Christian, an ES butterfly is a market on its own just like ES futures or AAPL stock. There is no legging involved, no need to check what the related markets are implying for the butterfly. CME has created butterfly, calendars, straddle, strangle markets that are independant from their options...

Caroy, I am not a fundamental trader and I find hard to get which reports are important for grains and which are not. I use the calendar from USDA website but most of the time there is no particular market action at the time of the reports. For example, every tuesday there is a...

That's my definition of blow-up too. It's really rare/dumb to blow-up ( and eventually end-up owing money to the house) in one single overleveraged trade.

I have never blown an account since I started trading futures, even at the beginning. Got from 9 K to 12 to 6 and then never looked back... That's called ... well... just luck.

Hey guys, stop buying Eur/Usd or Usd/Eur, and start buying Usd with your Eur or Eur with your Usd and things will come back to normal. Just like you buy candys with Usd or Usd with candys.

If anyone is interested in swaping his brewery against my quality tullip bulbs, please PM.:D

Not really in fact. There is something that make her look too skinny and ill...But I like your previous contributions....:) P450 particularly.

Are you OK with the flood?
