    Leasing a seat on the CBOT or CME

    I am sure that things have probably changed greatly since I traded on the floor of the CBOE (part of the CBOT). But at that time, you could trade anything, but had to do (if I remember correctly) 90% of your trades at the three posts of your choice. This was not a problem for true market...

    Question

    I have on occasion tried to paste a link so that a previous post can be accessed by just a click. But when I do it, the link takes us to the top of the page I want accessed. How do you get the exact post you want to come up without having to scroll down from the top of the page to the post...

    The "I" word and effects on equity markets

    Beautifully stated!!! And these are the kinds of words that we should expect to hear from truly patriotic Americans. Because being a "patriot" does not mean being a flag waving "my country, right or wrong" type. It is about understanding the concepts of our constitution. And that "new...

    You Are My Friend

    Great link!!!! So what you are saying is that he is basically an undomesticated, rambunctious, savage barbarian??? Sounds like a typical german to me:) They make great foot soldiers. Who else can goose-step like those guys?? Peace, :)rs7

    The Many Books Written by ET Members

    Commisso's titles are beyond the range of HTML and so I have been trying to work out reasonable interpretations. It is no easy task. I have been in touch with several eastern philosophers and religious leaders in a collaborative effort to somehow make an accurate rendering of Commisso's...

    Chich and Chong

    I think the title was "Things Are Tough All Over".. Very funny. If I remember, C&C played dual roles. Two arab brothers and their antagonists as well. Been a long time since I saw the movie, but I remember one scene in which the Arab Cheech and Chong see the other Cheech and Chong...

    You Are My Friend

    O777...I just wanted to let you know that I think your signature is great. You are a graphically gifted and usually very funny guy. Makes me recall one of those "lists" emails someone sent me recently. A list of worthless trivia. In the list (which was long and not very memorable) were two...

    What are Liquidity traders doing?

    spoke with a guy I used to work with that works with NXTD now...he said he's doing ok, but is really trading for p&l now. He also said that of the 20 or so traders in his office, only a handful were making money. Don't know how the other traders are trading. Still seems almost impossible to...

    Sharing cable modem with one IP address

    NO!....no, no, no; this is not what it appears. Here is what he REALLY meant. He was referring to the "trailer" for the major motion picture coming this summer to a theatre near you. "The Life and Times of Aphie (or How I learned to Stop Worrying and Turn 5k into a Million)" I have seen...

    Base Capital

    I wonder what a reasonable amount of time is these days to expect to get through the necessary initial mistakes (lose and learn). When I started as a day trader, in mid '96, they told me to expect to not make a "living" for a year. It was a lot easier then than it is now. It is hard for...

    Base Capital

    Hope you are kidding. I remember reading that a couple sold their home on Long Island in the early days of the New York State Lottery. They used all the money from the proceeds and actually about broke even. Amazing how lucky people that dumb can be. (Don't they call the lotteries a tax...
