    Equivalents to SPY

    You don't, you only pay attention to ES at that point.

    Equivalents to SPY

    ES requires like 5k of margin at most places. If you can't afford that then you shouldn't be doing this. Be aware that you're controlling over 100k of notional.

    UK trader arrested for May 2010 U.S. Stock market flash crash

    Emphasis on "his parent's London basement" - for instead if it were "Goldman Sachs 200 West Street HQ" there would be no issue here.

    FYI option expiry - US markets closed this Friday July 3

    We're just giving him shit. To be fair his response with the pennies pumping out dollars made me laugh. :-)

    SGX A50 Index future

    Had some initial losses while stalking a setup but had conviction in the ascending triangle in both XINA50 and HSI being broken so pushed on.... The triangle ended up being broken after a patience testing cup and handle'ish route to get there, but by that point I was 3 lots long and glad I stuck...

    Maybe all the Latinas can help breed out the crazy gene from the rest of the Floridians. :-)

    bulls have no worries

    I sold some ATM QQQ July 107 puts down near the bottom, I expect atleast some kind of technical bounce but if it doesn't happen I'll ride it for a bit and then close. The position is hedged so I have some breathing room. If it pops back up I'll sell ATM calls. I think there's going to be quite...

    What products let me see the SEQUENCE of the Level-2 / Market Depth queue?

    Nobody offers this. TT (or maybe CQG) can attempt to predict it if it has enough information, but it's impossible to be 100% accurate.

    SGX A50 Index future

    20-40 ticks is actually 50-100$, it's 2.5$/tick, 1$/point (min movement increment is 2.5$). If one were trading 10 lots to equate this to TF or YM in notional value then they really better know what they're doing because it can move quickly. But on the flip-side if one sees a really good setup...

    Krugman Battles Austerians

    Who gives a shit about Krugman. It's Blankfein and all of his embedded operatives you've got to worry about.

    shanghai index down but futures up?

    I'm trading A50 futures on SGX and they're up 5% at this point. July contract. I'd be surprised if Shanghai were down at this point, delayed quote maybe?
