    CL spreads

    Are the CL calendars for later in the year (CLX4/CLZ4) usually as wide as they are right now(in March)? I need to go back and look at all my data, but they seemed a little wider than I anticipated considering they are 7 months out or so.

    What is the optimum tax rate on the wealthy?

    I am not for higher taxes at all, but don't forget about roads, bridges, etc. Unless the wealthy fly their helicopter to work or work from home, they use those government services.

    CLX3-CLQ5 Futures Data

    Wow, I was not familiar with that site. Thank you for sharing. I have just been using the Bloomberg terminal at school and copying all the data into excel. I thought there might be some other people that might need/want that data, but looks like that site should have everything I need. Thanks.

    Bitcoin pounded again

    What is the reasoning for the big difference in the gox price and the quote everywhere else? I really haven't looked into bitcoins so I don't know anything about the different exchanges

    CQG sells data, but I'm not sure what kind of format it comes in and how far back they offer it. It's listed on their site I believe.

    Natural gas is exploding

    I am doing a lot of learning currently so I don't have a set method, but I downloaded a ton of data on NG spreads from Bloomberg at school the other night then I have been checking the average spreads and seeing what is normal and what isn't. Basically, I just ran some numbers in excel and...

    Natural gas is exploding

    Has anybody been watching the spreads? Talk about a huge spike in the front month when there is bad weather hitting. This is not real cash, but I have been tracking a few of the spreads and performing well trading the calendars on NG and CL. Lots of interesting stuff!

    Some big movements tonight on NG. I wasn't watching when it happened, but looks like it came back down after about 45 minutes.

    CL Redux

    Thank you, roreilly. Looking back at the chart it seemed like a perfect opportunity to go long the nearer month and short the later months counting on the spread to widen. Hindsight is 20/20 of course. Also pertaining to this trade, is there much risk of oil going into contango instead of...

    Go for CFA or not?

    Get your foot in the door at a bank doing some low level job. Prove your worth and network and you should be able to move up the ranks from within. Just an idea if you are job hunting.
