artis74- when you describe the liquidity for natty, do you mean the IPE nat gas or the Nymex mini nat gas? also, regarding the IPE front end; are you saying just dont use the IPE front end, but anyone else's (like TT) is OK ? thanks :)

leapfrog - is the nat gas mkt on the screen liquid at every $.005 or is more like a penny or so? also, what style of trading are you doing? scalping & daytrading, or more position-type trading? thanks

is anyone trading nat gas on the screen? I realize the volume is very light (1500/day) but the daily ranges are nice. also, I wonder if the financial paper nat gas products (Henry hub or basis) are trading well enough on either Clearport or ICE to be worth investigating further? any info...

does anyone know how much of the daily volume for Brent Crude at the IPE is during US hours vs London hrs? ie. is it 80-20 London or 60-40 US or what. thanks!

buylo: how is the liquidity on the CME/Nymex minis? looks solid enough for individual traders and pretty much trades at every $.025

does anyone know if many prop shops in the US are trading crude? if so, is it mainly Brent on the IPE or are they trading Nymex mini contracts? The IPE volume looks liquid enough for trading (+100k/day) but how much of that volume is during US hours? and are people basically trading the IPE...

regarding the contract issue, I have a theoretical question; if I sign a three yr contact with a Refco-type shop, but then leave after two years, do they in theory have a right to my earnings during year three? would this apply to me trading on my own with my own funds or only at another shop...

I am an indie futures trader and the research I have done re: prop is this; provided you have your own capital, most of these new arcade style firms charge just about the same fees as it would cost you to work out of your home with a T1 line and the same front end and other software. Hence, it...

Most traders form LLCs, not S corps. Even if they trade their own funds, and act as the sole client. This is generally for liability protection, as the benefits of pension or health insurance do not apply.

Hi, I am an experienced futures trader with my own capital (no need for additional leverage), and I am looking for a trading room near Miami, FL. I am moving to area soon and I do not want to work out of my house or at a prop firm. The prop firms dont sound like they are set up to accomodate...
