What is happening this morning in Cotton? I have stuck orders I cannot cancel in calendar spreads and March is trading in a 20 tick range???:confused:

Excuse my ignorance, but these long-only funds aren't allowed to short, like mutual funds on stocks? Or do they choose to be long because that's where the trend is the most identifiable? I agree it's a real concern and they should not exist... When you see the crashes they create on stock...

Not on an inflation adjusted basis, in raw $... On an inflation adjusted basis, food commodities are way cheaper now than in the early 80's!

I don't know if it is applicable here. France is unable to do good things, but I don't know for stupid ones.:p

Looking at this website, it's hard to understand how you can use so much energy to tax other people...What we do is understandable, we fight to preserve our livelyhood... But they are as committed at taxing us than we are at protecting ourselves... Go figure.

Don't forget the cost of living. Switzerland and Monaco are just great places to live with a lot to do but check out the real estate prices for example. One of my best friends lives in one of the crappiest studio in Geneva. I wouldn't stay there more than a month. 1800 CHF/per month. Last...

My advice is to constantly monitor the number and size of resting orders on each side of the book across all correlated instruments. Ex: You are a fixed income scalper with short resting orders on 10-year, 30 year, Eurodollar, Bund, Euribor, just imagine a news will fill all your orders at once...

Wow... Is it covered with ice from the lake? In december, the ice was covering the lake shore trail near John Hancock Memorial...

Incy, here's what crossed my mind when I heard about your comeback:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WoLVWvqEwzs What would Rocky do now? Stop trading , certainly not.

An interesting recent response from Semeta to a new "written question" of the pro-FTT MEPs :http://www.europarl.europa.eu/sides/getAllAnswers.do?reference=E-2010-010243&language=FR "In addition, recent publications on the reasons for the current crisis did not identify trading activity as...

Johnathan, I find your posts really informative. Can you stay on ET for a while? Just disregard the trolls around.

That's right. It's awful how cheap it is to run this business...LOL. However, my advices on deductions : - When you are looking for a vacation, choose a place where there is a trading seminar/expo, pay for it and attend it even if it is just to have a proof for the tax officer. It will take...
