    Seriously what's the deal with "spreading"?

    Thanks for your answers, Drm, I understand flies are mean reverting but you need member fees. Even in the IIP program, my butterflies fees are still almost a tick... Xelite, Are those based on seasonals? I don't trade based solely on seasonals( got killed in the past )...

    Peak to peak max time

    I thought it would have been an interesting topic... I think if you trade for a living for 50 years, one day or another you will be on the bad side of a black swan, the kind that can wipe out one year of profits... I just wanted to here motivating stories...I am sure the old seasoned traders...

    X_Trader Pro Simulation Mode is Broken and Useless

    To be fair, X Trader pro is not that bad. In fact, the advanced features are great( Autospreader, Autotrader, Algo design lab...), it is just the basic stuff that sucks. Being able to see charts of every product you want shouldn't be that complicated especially for a 1K+ Platform.
