Just the europeans doing at their close what they do best...bail anytime there's uncertainty. Happy to catch the falling knives they've been throwing.

70% of all money invested with CTA's comes from institutions. To qualify you generally need 3 years and 10 mill. under management. Failing that, you need to attract individual investors. Try convincing your broker to send some accounts your way. It's a way for him to keep underperforming...

It's a pretty simple probability problem. Figure the expectation of the game (sum of all prob. * payoffs)/26 = 39,600 Take any offer above 39,600... refuse any below. Playing any other way is gambling...something traders never do....lol.

If you enter with a limit order you're likely to miss the best moves (you know, the ones that take off as soon as you enter), and be left entering only the second rate trades. And you do this to save what? your commission? give me a break.

Look at page 6 of their "Call to Action". It's all about getting their hand greased by uncle. LOL

I'm sure you realize the VIX is calculated from the 30 day implied volatility. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to look at recent historical 30 day volatility and realize the market is pretty dead.

One thing you guys probably haven't realized yet is the earth has already exceeded it's maximum loading capacity. There's not enough water to take care of everyone. Unless we start reducing the number of bodies on it, the survival of the fittest will kick in. Fusion is the future for energy...

The problem with MFE and MAE is they are usually based on dollars or points in a trade. Unfortunately, the markets volatility changes over time so either the stops generated will be too sloppy (as in using data from the late 90's in the ES) or too tight (as in using data from 2004-2005 in the...

At least he waited 3 months before responding. Aged spam....yum.

I'm an independent but today I'm definitely MAD. Heard the agenda calls for a increase in capital gains tax and a tax increase for the top 1%. Sure looks like classwarfare is alive and well. I'm tired of paying way more than my "fair share". Guess I'll hold my end of year charity donations to...
