I hear ya, Everybody wants to believe in something so they can get that done and over with and no longer have to think and get on with their life. Believing is easy, thinking is hard. Or at least it was for our ancestors. Now it is getting harder to believe than it is to think. Didn't we...

Hillary says, "Emails are just like Benghazi." You really have to think about that one for a while.

How so? Depends on what you call a religion I suppose. My definition of a religion is anybody that reads a book and believes it is true. And those folks are dying off. The last one will be Barack Obama who read something when he was young and still to this day believes it is true. It's a real...

religions are dying, and so are the people who vote for them

well, to be fair, that is like comparing the percentage moves in penny stocks to the percentage move in Blue Chips.

USA needs a second spiritual revolution. That is the easiest way to make everybody rich.

yes, in their minds Romney would be President today and running for re election if it wasn't for that one hug

what are the expectations?

cme website or ICE. Activity is associated with harvest. New crop is still in the ground or has not yet been planted so very uncerain hence the need for futures to hedge.

TLT also owns bonds in the cash market, it is a convenient way to get long bonds short rates. Everybody spreads grains. Sometimes new crop vs old crop or sometimes corn against wheat for cattle feed. Most trade July wheat, NOV beans and DEC corn. all three of those contracts are always liquid...

DIA for YM yes, but not UNG or USO, but SLV or GLD is ok. DIA, SLV, GLD own the cash market, USO and UNG own the futures market. The price you pay for trading small is the need to hold on a long time. UNG and USO will kill a small trader waiting in the rollout costs. I personally would not...

drugs, illegals, same problem same solution, make them legal. But hypocrit right wingers will not do the right thing because they want to defend their socialist government.

no it's not point for point, check out some of the long term charts, they can stay above or below without ever reverting for a long time. YM you have more specific stock risk. Your question was about trading even smaller than one ES. If you are holding long term looking for a mega move I would...

maybe not toilets, but population growth. No one yet has come up with a sustianable economy (I almost had perpetual motion down a couple of times, but in the end friction raised it's ugly head.) It's all based on growth. If you can't breed new consumers you need to buy them.

beggars can't be choosers. If you need somebody to clean your toilets, you can either breed them and raise them or simply import them. If you on't like it invent a self cleaning toilet.

I would much rather buy illegal contraband smuggled by a pussy cat than a mule

the best way to create a micro ES is to spread it against YM, you can put it on for peanuts, there is info on the CME website, Figure what an ES is worth and subtract the value of YM and that is how much a 1:1 spread is worth

I heard the ceo of aetna on tv and he said in 2015 they would probably take a hit on ACA but it was only 8% of their business

an ecn like ib trades with the the major banks and charges a commisssion. The spreads are tighter than what you find at the CME. And no there is no rolling out, but all in all down to the penny futures are cheaper. But spot allows you to put on a position that is custom tailored to your risk. Ib...

Goldman Sachs is the result of the Catholic Church prohibition against usury.
