    al - Zarqawi dead?

    It's not worth that much to the market. We got Saddam on a Saturday, futures popped up but then Monday we were actually down for the day. Capturing or killing one guy, be it Zarqawi or UBL doesn't really matter much in the end game.

    Will IB ever offer pit access for futures? I thought they were going to if they got

    I think you don't understand IB. They are business savvy. If it all adds up and they can make it work, then great for all of us.

    'Fund' / Structure

    NFA being the self-regulated extension of the CFTC. I think for international and larger profile cases the CFTC may file directly, although I'm not sure where they divvy it up. For the registrant, they are effectively one and the same.

    'Fund' / Structure

    Currencies are regulated by the NFA. I think you run into regs based on whose money you are working with.

    Money Management

    I would suggest the book I just reviewed here... Fortune's Formula.

    'Fund' / Structure

    Trading commodity regulated products exclusively can potentially limit you to sole regulation by the NFA/CFTC. There are qualified opinions out there that anyone properly NFA registered and trading commodity products exclusively can avoid being regulated by the SEC. This could avoid the need...

    'Fund' / Structure

    Yes. Make the lockup long enough to work out that situation and anything else that might come up.

    Verizon Broadband

    I've had it for a few years as well. Speed is solid in broadband areas and a hair better than dialup in the outer regions One interesting issue as I note you are a moderator. Many people using the VZ cards come across ET with similar IP addresses, which leads senior people here to think...

    Anyone interested in managing an account

    8% a month with minor drawdowns? Yeah, that should be easy. LOL. By noon today, I expect you'll have about 10 funds who have sent you their records. I hope you haven't grown too attached to that 700K.

    Weekly SPX options and MiniSPX

    Thanks for the info. I see definite uses for these contracts. I'm sure IB will have everything resolved soon. I saw no quotes on the 1195 or 1185 puts or calls today.

    Weekly SPX options and MiniSPX

    I found 1185 and 1195 puts and calls for Nov, but nothing for Dec (expiring the first friday next week). Also there are no quotes for the Nov contracts. Another interesting note. I have an institutional and personal account with IB. The Inst acct showed the contracts while the pers acct...

    Fading ET or just ignoring it completely.

    I'm with you. I'd like some way to not see the garbage from those on ignore as well. Late apex, have you tried clicking on "mark all forums read" on the way out? That seems to work very accurately in terms of keeping the new posts icons correctly displayed on the main page.

    There is a prick moderator on this forum

    I'd like to thank all of you pricks for doing such a thankless job to clean up the crap for the rest of us. :D This helps me get into the threads some of these goobers post and add them into my ignore list much faster.

    Track Record

    All the (conservative) legal advice I got was that the prior record was not usable. Once the LLC started and the entity traded as such, then the record would start. It didn't matter that it was the same strategy, segregated funds, etc.. etc... That said, there are a lot of people in this...
