I'm not american, but as a futures scalper, i will be fuckin' hurt by this tax if it comes out...Perhaps, i will have to change instruments and move to eurex or liffe and work my ass out to find something that suits me there... I'm frightened .

You can still trade everything else( futures, cfds... ) but if it's related to DeFazio's Proposal, the guy wants the transaction fee to be applied to "all foreign transactions made by american nationals"( from the other thread ). Hope you americans find something to dig this whole tax nonsense...

Spanish, if you lose, don't do anything stupid... We were just joking on the other thread... Accept the fact that you're not really ready to trade for a living, get a real job and you will be able to come back in a few times.

ok i found it.

I'm joking, but i really hope you don't blow up... Nobody would like to be in your position and I really like your thread( just rated it 5 stars ...)

Please, I really don't know about options. Is my question that stupid?

You will see one of those posts in a few times : - " What did I say, mate? All those guys who say I am not good trader are newbie traders that have lost huge amounts of money by using complex stuff like risk/reward ratio... they're not trading and making huge sums of money like me and other...

Hello, Sorry for the newbie question , I'm new to options. Are ag options ( OZC, OZW for example on IB ) european or american style? Thanks a lot.

They cancelled/busted all your short entries it seems... Did you make 22 RTs on 5000 shares or something like that? That's what scares me in trading. Not the trading part, the trade bust/platform bug/crash part of it... One day, one of my entries was busted on ICE one day after the trade...

"Further, the tax would apply equally to foreign transactions of U.S. nationals and corporations," Good luck guys, they're really trying to screw everyone of you... Glad I am not american for one time... This is fucking crazy... You need to act against those fuckers...

We had a transaction tax in France as well( "l'impot de bourse" ). That was one of the reason I began trading the US Futures market in 2005... Sarko supressed it as soon as he came in office I think. Now, the french market is more viable although commissions remains high... One of the most...

I find it hard to come up with 3 year real money track record on a system he just designed...

I stop trading for 3 hours at noon , just to do sports with friends. Sport is seriously the best depression cure. I also always plan something with girlfriend / friends for the WE so I don't stay at home and find myself working on trading strategies. Recently I realized that...

That's what I was doing, and suddenly i felt a bit guilty ... Spanish will have some serious financial/whatever problems when he blows up... So this arrogant newbie deserves it, but I hope he continues to do well( god intervention needed )

You're right but it's not my fault... As a broker customer, i cannot execute my orders within a fraction of second in one single click, hitting bids/asks with a 12 tick spread...

Spanish, i read about your giant stop losses and your risk/reward ratio... They are too conservative IMO... Next time you short crude around 105, put your target at 104 and your stop loss at 130 ... There are virtually no chances your stop would get it, especially considering your skills and...

I sometimes trade european futures with IB( 0.1% trade value commishs ) There are brokers in France like Dubus, Cortal... but i don't know if they are any good.

Thanks.

Hello, I am working on a trading system on TWS excel API and I sometimes get the message "above max numbers of 100 tickers" or something... Is it true ? can you only display 100 tickers with TWS? Is there a mean to get more? Thanks
