    Fed Minutes Show Officials Expect to Raise Rates 'Relatively Soon'

    IMHO the worst case scenario is the Fed raises .25 in December, and then the US economy weakens and they have to take it back off sometime in 2017. That scenario would be consistent with a huge drop in equities late this year.

    Big day for tech analysis...Triangle broken!

    Cool chart, but I don't see the "break". That looks like a Narrowing wedge pattern.

    Daily stop-loss - your risk management strategy

    This is a good topic. Why not employe MAE, MFE to make the determination ? Compute your MAE and MFE daily for at least 100 days. Then focus on the average MAE as your daily stop loss figure and determine that if you quit at that figure, what percent of the days went on to be winners....and then...

    Republican Trump says 70 percent of federal regulations 'can go'

    Keep in mind that with Hillary, we are all likely to be forced to become "politically correct". I assume she'll enact legislation to insure all violators are subject to an arrest and misdemeanor charge. What a great country we have become. I'm "outta here".....it's Greece, Costa Rica or...

    Lawsuit: Yahoo CEO tried to get rid of male employees

    Mayer is a disaster....and that pretty face doesn't help her make tough business decisions. I would not put it past her to be female-biased. Guys - Welcome to the new world of female domination !! We are about to have a female president. Time to batten the hatches and expect the worse.

    VRX Valeant Pharmaceuticals

    I agree...18 if held would form a double-bottom. This company has potential for being taken over. When and if it hits 18, then buy calls with a strike of 25.

    This of course affects the equity curve profoundly...as the longer the TIT (Time In Trade), the more volatile the equity curve.

    25,000 Roundtrips a day?!

    Every other business has a retail/wholesale difference of between 2 to 4:1. In this case, it's 20 to 30:1 ? No wonder Wallstreet is in such disdain. Where's the CFTC on this ? They should impose exchange restrictions to cap the advantage for the big boys at 5:1 of the average retail R/T. So, if...

    25,000 Roundtrips a day?!

    So Mstier, if you're average net win per contract is just a quarter of a tick, you are grossing (before fees) about $40k-60k per day ?

    25,000 Roundtrips a day?!

    I was interested in the cost of doing this kind of volume.... I am estimating Mstier is doing at least 4-5k R/T's per day...so even at 10 hours per day, that comes out to 6 to 8 R/T's per MINUTE ! So in looking at the CME's rate schedule here...
