    Futures brokers are greedy bastards

    3$RT is 0.35 $ commissions per side + exchange fees...I think it's for people making 3000-5000 RTs per month on average. If they do that from first lot, they are fool.

    Spanish, if they have really been through your thread( which I doubt... ), the most credible thing is they are trying a Billy Ray Valentine experiment( watch "trading places" if you don't know what it is ). In this case, it is a unique chance for you. They are options market makers...Don't...
