Futures will add liquidity to the BTC market. Could help or hurt prices. We'll just have to see.

Will be curious to see the impact of the new futures contracts on BTC.... see what happens when there are shorts in the market place.

Does that mean you graph "bars of 500, 1500, 4500 tics"?

"... spindr0 said: Losing weight is simply a function of consuming fewer calories than your burn rate. To do that, you have to consume fewer calories and/or exercise more. However, that's easier said than done..." _________________________________________________ That's it. If you ate only...

Not technically correct. "Improvements" are capitalized and added to cost basis. "Replacements" are not, nor are they deductible for your residence. Requirement to keep receipts, if questioned in audit, is same as always. No, not "double taxed". Same tax if qualified for having lived there...

With your posting to reward "2017 performers from your own pocket"... then say, "when I get to being successful..." comes off as you being bitchy, demanding and high maintenance. Or is it just me?

Yeah, no shit! I was hoping Obamacare would get repealed... not just for the mandate but along with its 108 tax increases. Chickenshit Roberts deserves to rot in Hell, too!

Obama is a DICK! He has no concern for the homeless or veterans or anyone else. He only wants to "look good". How long did he spend on the service line? 5 minutes? Just long enough for the photo op?

If they are THAT stupid, they shouldn't be burdened with the responsibility of voting in the first place.

People like to believe Obamacare was about health insurance in some way. They seemed not to notice the ACA either initiated or increased taxes in 108 places. IOW... ACA was actually a "tax increase package". Whenever there is a change in tax policy... without a reduction in spending...

Years ago I bought an Elliott Wave software program... was supposed to "consider all possible wave counts and then indicate its 1st and 2nd picks for current count". It would run for hours... one time I recall it tested "94 million" possibilities. Was almost never correct (perhaps it was the...

The way to make money on cryptos now is to start one. Then you, as an insider, can get coins valued at $.0000000001. Then sell other people theirs at $.01. When your crypto is listed on an exchange, cash out. BIG PROFITS!!

If it's a paper trading contest, no actual trades will be made. Why would there be exchange, clearing fees?

Story apparently is the futures will be "cash settled"... same as stock index futures. The CME won't handle BTC itself but rather a "cash exchange" based upon BTC price. That's good! If so, there won't be any concerns about security, hacking or wallets. Considering the volatility of BTC...

"Taxpayer funded"? What's to worry. It's not your money.

A question that's been asked many times on ET... "How do you make yourself do the right thing"? Relates to discipline. Many/most times traders are uneasy and have difficulty pulling the trigger (including stops)... fear of being wrong, fear of loss, uncertainty of outcome, et al. I don't have...

If you do it wrong enough, big enough... you could lose 20 YEARS profit on one bad patch of decisions.

You may NEVER have big winners. Nice if you get them, but not necessary.

Oh brother... I think you "stepped into it". 1. If a stop sucks you out of your position, you can always re-enter. 2. You don't know about "big winner"... that depends upon how you play it. The market will always give you the chance to turn a potentially large gain into a small one. IOW...

One of my favorite stories indirectly relates to stops. Years back some guy was on CNBC who was a big shot at some financial institution... Merrill Lynch size class... He related how they used to have a traders' meeting every Monday morning before the market opened, and everyone who was sitting...
