    Gotta love ZERO RISK in the SP500 = $$$

    Imo it's not like it isn't going to retest 2020-2030 before it heads back down - especially in the kind of markets we have today which relentlessly retest. It probably will indeed go down but you might be too early. The general speculative dumb money expectation is short right now and while...

    CME Group and FTSE Russell to Offer Leading Index Derivatives

    It used to be ER2, then ICE won the contract so it moved there as TF. Now it appears CME won the contract so it's moving back. IMO, it's better on ICE (even with the increased data costs) because it's less prone to arbitrage garbage as a result of being inter-exchange. Once it moves to CME...

    Gotta love ZERO RISK in the SP500 = $$$

    Sold my SPY 200 calls for 100% gain. About to ditch a remaining ES 2000 call. I had a good feeling this would happen which is why I picked up those lotto tickets a week or so ago when everyone was talking about "MORE DOWNSIDE AHEAD!"

    FOMC Thursday?

    Kommi and zr1 are dead on. The first fast move will be a fake out to load up on liquidity. Catalyst news events are basically owned by algos now. There's no real liquidity and you can see it in the book right before the news is released. Everyone should be flat. If you want to be a baller then...

    If there's one thing I know about Thursday its that everyone will end up stopped out.

    Trading the Nikkei 225 (/NDK) on AmeriTrade

    I can't think of any location based scenario in which someone would be able to open a TD account but not an IB account. TD would be even more restrictive.

    Trading the Nikkei 225 (/NDK) on AmeriTrade

    Here's an example of N225M during prime time: http://www.elitetrader.com/et/index.php?threads/gotta-love-zero-risk-in-the-sp500.85694/page-982#post-4173697 About 3k on both sides or so but that was also during a selloff. Anyway, it's the most liquid Nikkei contract in the world. If you trade...

    Trading the Nikkei 225 (/NDK) on AmeriTrade

    Also if you're really going to be trading 100 lots then you should consider the N225 full contract on OSE. There's another mid-size contract on SGX called SGXNK. I believe the liquidity is decent but probably similar to CME in that OSE wins.

    Trading the Nikkei 225 (/NDK) on AmeriTrade

    OSE is the native exchange. Trading NKD and NIY on CME is definitely doable but it's like trading ES on OSE (if they had such a thing).

    Trading the Nikkei 225 (/NDK) on AmeriTrade

    It can be done but liquidity is nowhere near the N225M contract on OSE.JP which IB has access to.
