The NFA is not telling the whole story. The major past problem in the futures industry has been the failure of clearing firms. Customers eventually got their money back, but in the meantime their accounts were frozen. A frozen account not only means no access to your cash, but also no ability to...

The CME reported that August 2008 volume was down 32 percent from August 2007. Maybe there is concern that Timber Hill has had a major drop in market making volume from 3rd quarter 2007. Have to wait until the 3rd quarter earning report to know the facts.

You must have a strange calendar as this is only the 2nd week of the month.

Could be your father, Pennsylvania or Price Action.:)

"If you were one of the big players, how would you hide your footsteps?" Bad question, as the big players don't necessarily want to hide their footsteps. With winners, you can get things to move more your way when you promote your position. It is with losers that you want to hide your position.

We just had 35 points of Dirac delta in the ES, hope your gaussian filter didn't choke on it.

Yes, I know. That overnight limit down happened early morning January 22, 2008. I was just pointing out that different limit rules apply overnight than apply RTH.

Electronic (AKA overnight) trading hours on Globex have the 5% equities futures limits both up and down, but RTH limits (10%, 20% and 30%) only kick in on the downside.

Great. IB has updated the IB data fees page for "North America" "InterContinental Exchange and New York Board of Trade United States" from "GBP 1.00" to "USD 1.00". Why doesn't IB just get rid of a silly $1.00 fee? Who in IB management gets paid the big bucks to charge a silly $1.00 fee...

It is an obvious fake photo. Just one of many.

Better figure that both FRE and FNM will have a delayed open due to a slight order imbalance.

You are not reading the CFTC FCM report correctly. As of 06/30/08 Velocity has capital of $1,025,294 more than double the Net Capital Requirement of $500,000.

Wow, you really do live in your own little world. Quite obviously you didn't bother to do the calculation of the dollar volume of the ES versus the SPY. Every trader I know looks to the ES for short term market guidance, not the SPY. The only people that would look at the SPY rather than the...

It is not semantics, any regular trader knows the difference between futures and ETFs and doesn't go around calling well known trading vehicles by the wrong name. Try putting SPY trades on Form 6781 and see what the IRS does to you. As far as liquidity, why don't you calculate the daily...

Read your own posts. In the post that started this thread you said "The futures rallied hard after the close friday." and 3 post back you said "The S&P futures, the spy's etc.". You brought up the subject of the futures rallying and the simple fact is that they did not. We all agree that...

Velocity has a special offer of $4.73 RT all in with free X_Trader. If that is the deal you are getting then it is a good deal for a low volume trader. For a high volume trader it is better to pay the monthly fee for X_Trader. Note that intraday for the ES refers to the hours from 9:30 AM to...

The SPX closed Friday at 1242.31 and the ES at 1241.00. There was no significant rally in futures after the cash close. The ETFs made the move after futures closed at 4:15 EDT.

"Stocks have tanked, and are basically flat over the last 10 years." You didn't bother to look at small and mid caps. From the closing low (310) in October, 1998 the Russell 2000 is up 132%. From the closing low (128) in October, 1998 the S&P Small Cap Index is up 195%. From the...
