    Exotic forex options brokers?

    I have a little, but what I thought I saw was that they only do intraday bets, or if not, the bets seemed to only be simple ones such as will X be above the current price at Y time. I like the idea of touch and double touch bets as well as longer-term ones as well. Do you know if any of those...

    Exotic forex options brokers?

    Unfortunately or fortunately; depending, betonmarkets isn't available in the U.S. where I am. In particular, I was interested in the bets like those offered by betonmarkets but by a U.S. broker. I should have specified that originally. Thanks for the help.

    Exotic forex options brokers?

    I keep reading about SPOT (single payment options trading) and other exotic forex option types, but so far my "googling" has been somewhat fruitless when it comes to finding brokerages that offer such services. Can anyone tell me of any brokers (preferrably trustworthy ones at that) that offer...

    Indicators are liars! Support and Resistance Trading for the S&P emini

    Thanks for the comment, and while the original analogy was general, i'm not sure your comments were specific enough to really be convincing. I know you don't owe it to me to convince me, but I think it's an interesting topic that I would like to develop a firm opinion on. I do realize a lot...

    Indicators are liars! Support and Resistance Trading for the S&P emini

    I don't remember where, but I distinctly remember someone making an interesting analogy about using volume as a method of price forecast as being equivalent to attempting to use the number of cars on the road to predict the next turn in said road. It stuck with me because I realized at that...

    Fixed Odd betting

    That's too bad. It seems very interesting to me and I would really like to try it out. No loopholes are known that allow us to use this or some service like it? geez... Damon

    Fixed Odd betting

    Why is this illegal? Any reasonable way around this? Thanks. Damon

    Fixed Odd betting

    It looks like betonmarkets.com doesn't take business from U.S. customers? Is this a legal thing or are there brokers here that offer similar services? Any suggestions? Thanks, Damon

    Who's from Chicago?

    Some of us are still out here. I thought it was more recently ago, but apparently 2 years ago or so I tried to catch the interest of some local traders in this or a similar thread, but failed to find any that wanted to converse... Before I moved to Chicago, I assumed it would be teeming with...

    Series 6 sponsorship

    I tried to search for this topic, but it wouldn't let me search with "6" as a word making it kind of difficult. Are there any ways around the need for sponsorship (NASD employment) for the Series 6 and/or Series 7 examinations? Any and all suggestions or help are greatly appreciated...

    You can't generate positive alpha without a PhD.

    PhD's learn more and more about less and less, until they know absolutely everything about nothing at all. I bet this dude just read EBTA and feels he has it all figured out. For now, I have little reason to believe anything other than the null hypothesis: H0 = golfer has <= anything...

    Vista? Who is using it?

    XP is fine, let Vista prove itself first. Don't risk it on something as crucial as trading. Let others be the guinea pigs first. In time you will come to know whether or not you really need or want Vista.

    Looking for some local (Chicago) trader(s) to bounce ideas off of

    I've been trading since April of '98 and had a lot more like-minded buddies then. Since those good ole days, they have since moved on to other things as so many have. I know there are tons of traders around here but I don't know any, and have yet to randomly meet any of them. I'm fairly new...
