    some of you guys are so cynical and negative, it's a wonder you can find any reason to get up in the morning.

    Hawaii car rental/ride

    Me and my gf are flying in to HNL January 6 2004, but she is 23 and can't rent the car under the package she got. Her flight arrives at noon, mine at 10:30PM, so I can rent the car when I arrive, but in the mean time, I would like her to be able to check into the hotel and get to the beach...

    cash out via shorting bonds?

    Not bond futures, but rather the bonds themselves. I wasn't actually considering funding a mortgage that way.. I am just trying to figure out how the mortgage banks do it, and figure out how it works in general. If you short/long the bond futures, you don't pay/receive interest payments as far...

    cash out via shorting bonds?

    Is it possible to short bonds (not bond futures) in your account and have the cash available to withdraw and use? I got thinking about this while trying to figure out how, exactly, a mortgate bank can tie the loan rate to the 30 year t-bond.. maybe it is just correlated.. The way I figure...

    Seattle

    I won't be commuting.. as long as I have broadband I can trade from home. You gave some excellent info, pretty much what I wanted, which is an overview of some different areas. Since I will need to get out of the apartment often, sounds like Belltown is in first place, followed by...

    Bond Futures

    Maybe we are just arguing semantics like you said.. I would say that the account suffered a small drawdown, and then went positive. I view it as my total net worth at any given instant (mark-to-market down to the tick), as if I were to suddenly need to liquidate everything. Holding through a...

    Bond Futures

    Your point is well taken about the margin requirements, and that is a real consideration in some cases, especially if you are trying to maximize returns by using full margin.. I think the YM broken trades scenario is not the norm, and should not be weighted as such. i.e. in reality that will...

    Bond Futures

    This is one of the most intelligent and relevant discussions I've seen in a while.. I think that was the point.. not that you would be using incorrect risk management, but that you would be using *different* risk management for no apparent reason other than that your last trade (albeit...

    Seattle

    Looking to get an apartment in Seattle.. Any suggestions where is a reasonable place to live for a single guy? Where is the nightlife and clubs? I remember a few places downtown by Key Arena. Is downtown a decent area to live? or do you need to live farther out? Is "international district"...

    What the f*ck happened (again)?

    how about this.. there's hackers in the system. they can't say "there's hackers in the system" for obvious reasons. so people will keep entering "erroneous orders" until they can figure out how to close the holes in the systems.

    Don't do this...

    ask the neighbor, or anyone within 1 mile radius. probably hundreds of people around you could have borrowed a phone from for a few bucks cash (or free). think outside the box.

    Trade to lose

    Fade the market.. try this on the S&P: If the market close is higher than the previous close, sell/short. If the market close is lower than the previous close, buy/cover. If you are already short/long, then ignore the signal and do nothing. You can use the time 10 seconds before the close...
