Wow, that SALE didn't last long. Ended yesterday. :(

Obviously bad "ticks". And yes, it is THAT obvious! :)

Your info is greatly appreciated. Thanks for the clarification!

Wheat down another 7.5% Cocoa down 8% Dollar surging . . . and yet the ET "Conspiracy Theorists" and "Inflation Bulls" are getting their arse handed to them because they have no clue what Bernanke has really been doing. These idiots keep yammering about how "Helicopter Ben" and the PPT is...

DAMN! What happened to ALL of the inflation that everyone was talking about because of "Helicopter Ben" PUMPING and PUMPING and PUMPING??? :confused:

And yet according to all of the "conspiracy" theorists here on ET and the believers in the "PPT". . . There is no real banking crisis and "Helicopter Ben" is simply trying to support the stock market and avoid a stock market correction. The T-Bill rate obviously tells a much different story...

Where are the ET INFLATION BULLS TODAY??? Is "Helicopter Ben" no longer pumping? BWWWWWWAAAAAAAA!!! :D

A lot of people don't seem to understand that there is $185 BILLION dollars committed to managed futures funds. They yap about how there is all this INFLATION in commodities, but don't seem to comprehend what a huge driving force these funds are, who typically use mechanical systems to get...

With your Series 7 registration you will be deemed a "professional" and the higher data-feed rates will apply. That much, I know.

Hey Mup, I think that your Martin Armstrong Cycle comes into play this weekend on or about the 22nd, eh?

"Mup" recently put a chart of the Martin Armstrong Cycle up on the "Elliott Wave" thread down in the Technical Analysis Forum. Check it out! :cool:

Excuse me, but I am a former member of the COMEX and the NYBOT that spent 10 years in NYC as a floor trader; 7 of which was with my own capital. The other 3 years were split between working for Victor Sperandeo and Paul Tudor Jones. Long time ET poster "Pabst" can vouch for me. And like so...

Looks like the SEC is making more "inquiries" into LLC's. It was confirmed tonight by a friend of mine who runs a shop in the LLC sub-account model and the person from the SEC said that they might want to check with their attorney before answering any questions because the information "could be...

Agreed.

Don, with all due respect I'm not sure when you last took the Series 7 but it is a far cry from the "Old Days" as there are about 25 chapters of review course material to wade through. I graduated from a major public university with a b.s. in business and was a former commodity floor...

Not anymore. I was told tonight that the SEC is continuing to make "inquiry" phone calls into LLC sub-account firms. At this point, I do not see the Tuco "incident" as an isolated event.

Blah, blah, blah.... Do you ever provide any sort of factual evidence or market "history" as a way to substantiate your opinions/claims?

You are mistaken. There is no such thing as a 1-month treasury bond. It always amazes me how most of the people in the Trading Forum on ET that generate these threads about "Market Crash Imminent?" have little understanding of how money and capital markets work, let alone the Fed and...

"MF Global told clients yesterday that the margin on FTSE small cap and US stocks would increase to 90pc. FTSE 250 and European stocks will require a 75pc margin. A senior MF Global salesman told one client the company was finding it increasingly difficult to finance highly-leveraged...

No, Makloda is correct. The market crashed due to program trading and the $70 Billion of securities that were tied to Leland, Obrien, and Rubenstein's (LOR) "portfolio-insurance" ( or "dynamic-hedging ) strategy using S&P Futures. The fllight to Treasuries occurred second. That was one of...
