It's owned by a charter company, Deer Jet, based out of....you guessed it, Dubai. It actually has a very AF-1 feel to it, with the luxury stuff in half the plane and standard business class seats in another section to put all your lackeys and/or the press.

What firm that offers SPX doesn't have direct market access to CBOE? I think you're confusing multiple listed options on stock. SPX on CBOE is a different beast entirely. In any event you can look at CBOE's COB to see if your orders are making it on, they've got a real-time listing. If you find...

If you pay 15% Corp taxes then 15% in dividend taxes when you eventually return the money to yourself, you end up paying 30%. You need to be making more than $233,350 in AGI if filing jointly for this to save you any money, you pay more in taxes if your AGI is less than that because you'd only...

Probably because they don't have the min account opening size. But do we really need to ask "why not IB"!

Similar thing at Quantopian. No reason you wouldn't use one of these services to at least show you weren't completely fabricating your data. Also for the OP, keep in mind that it's not too hard to data mine for 5 strategies, then put $1000 in all 5 and just show us the one that works after 6...

Just out of curiosity since I haven't done this, what's the delay on each side when you use this method? i.e. if you want to put a trade in using your money that's in the Treasury, how long of a delay between you asking to liquidate the treasury and the FCM being able to place the trade?

Like I said, it's a level of cleverness most people here wouldn't get. But to spell it out for you....I'm mad at this WTS company so I want them exposed. Instead of emailing Dave directly, which might not yield any results because he probably get's emails like that all the time, I post here as...

Either you're stating the blindingly obvious characteristic of every investment known to man, or I'm missing your point?

For sure, I found it an interesting read. My point was directed at DeltaRisk who seems to be, naive, shall we say?

Investment banks structure financial products for clients every day that provide a benefit to the client and the bank as a counterparty, often taking advantage of regulatory or tax arbitrage or less ethically as the article explains, "smoothing" earnings. That's their business and it's news to...

Since Dave Michaels is really a WSJ reporter at that email address covering this type of thing, it would be quite clever for someone to impersonate him in order to get people to send random info to him in order to get him interested in something. Hat's off if someone figured that out, but I'm...

You aren't in the bankruptcy stack if you follow Maverick's advice. You get any securities held in your name back when you ask for them, although I'd expect some process delays due to just the cluster of an unexpected bankruptcy.

Sure thing tough guy.

You clearly don't have the first clue as to what either CME or a casino are!

You're hopeless!

Combined with TradeJohn's idea you get a bunch of employees who really really really don't want an IPO!

Dude, at this point I feel like you're willfully misunderstanding or you are an academic who's completely out of touch with reality (this coming from someone with an MBA who highly respects most academics). You've clearly never worked at or with a startup, but still, try to put yourself in the...

You're talking gibberish dude, pretty clear you've never traded a forward in your life.

My idea is that you don't have the first clue of what you're doing so you should run not walk away from this. Buying equal and opposite positions on the same forex pair ensure is exactly the same as owning nothing, except you lose money in the roll every day as well as the spreads you pay to...

If it's risk free why buy puts?
