And nobody is realizing how weak Obama argument is :" You have been successful because you have been able to use roads and bridges"... How moronic is that? I am not even talking about half the businesses who don't use roads and bridges( internet, finance, various services ), even a...

If bridges and roads were built by a private company and we would use them for a fee, it would cost less than taxes private businesses are paying for it. Beware US people, your politicians are talking more and more like europeans.

Hello Smoker, Did this Serbian kid have a few articles on him about 5 years ago when( If I recall ) he was doing HFT on European markets ( Eurex or LIFFE )? It's just that Serbia is not an usual place where HFT traders come from...:) I tried to find his name and the articles back but I...

I am OK with inflow/outflow of customer funds. It's a good thing to add to the picture. But for example "exchange penalties", depending of what it is, is misleading. Good traders are getting exchange penalties, not weak hands. Good traders get fined by the exchanges for violations of...

Indeed. I can only talk for the 2006 one, I can hardly imagine there is something better than the one I tasted but these guys seem to know what they are talking about. Please tell me how it was if you buy it.:)

Hello George, I don't get Minny and KC wheat on IB so I don't know... On Chi Wheat, I am actually long Jul14/Short May14 @ 73 3/4, betting on a narrower spread, but it's super illiquid so I just took 1 lot to see.

They were pretty damn accurate based on the false numbers given by Wasendorf. They computed false numbers to obtain this rating and have been proven right...Good job . The reality is that the same fraud can happen at any of the Atlas top rated FCMs. I don't say that all their rating are...

The Chicago wheat curve has been shocked by the recent drought. At first most expiries skyrocketed, following the general trend in agriculture, fueled by the poorer and poorer condition of the current crops. But last week, the first 2014 crop month, july 14, started to fall compared to the...

Perhaps the Real Estate in Romania was part of a disappearing plan.

I am not quick at all. I am a customer of a FCM at the bottom too. I withdrew half my money the day I read the Atlas Ratings. I wanted to act first... Then I started to look at their ratings and different criterias and compared it to the CFTC numbers and the usual ratios people are using to...

Is it a joke? Suicide was the easy way out for him, much easier than spending the rest of his life in prison and facing people's( family, Iowa community ) reaction to his fraud. The son would have been left with only a bad name, a need to prove his innocence and a slut to nanny...

Yep, for the third year. Good, cheap way to analyze daily datas on curves, seasonals, COT... Dan Scarr once fixed bugs in 2 hours on a sunday afternoon when I asked him...

Yep. That's what I meant. The fact that he is new doesn't make his ratings worthless, what makes them worthless is how the ratings are computed.:)

The fact that he is new doesn't make his ratings worthless. It's just that his criterias and weighings don't reflect the financial health of the firm and the risk of the customer. His net capital ratio should weigh a lot more than all the rest, especially "transparency"( LOL), "penalties on...
