OK, here is my situation: I've been trading stocks since I was around 15 and did a little in futures last summer. I've blown up a few times with small amounts of money, but I keep trying and learning. I have no doubt that one day I'll be able to trade profitably. I'm now a freshman at...

It's just too bad that eventually the shareholders will push for electronic trading, or at least side by side...

Rocketed to $130 now trading around $100...just wondering what your opinions are.

That is the kind of thing I'm looking for. Thanks.

I'm looking for some good charting software which I can get charts for stocks, futures, currencies...basically anything. Price doesn't matter. Any recommendations?

Does anyone know how long members will be required to hold their shares before selling?

Hey, I need to find a site or some kind of source that gives me data about the Dow/S&P's trading history: how many up days, how many down days, how many sideways days, etc... Thanks in advance.

Ok.

On friday soybeans dropped out of their range only to come back into it tonight. I think we'll see $7 this week. Any other opinions?

I'm working down at the CBOT right now and they're starting to implement these handheld systems. It's only a matter of time when the place goes fully electronic. It's sad that the pits are going to be a thing of the past, especially because of my family's history there, but in the end, it will...

That is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks a lot. Now I need to find a VBI quote. I believe VBI is appx. 10x the value of VIX. Is that right?

Futures are traded in different months, such as Dec, Sep, Nov...I want to find quotes for all the months on VIX futures. I can't find them anywhere.

I was looking around the CBOE website, where VIX futures are traded, but I couldn't find quotes in all contract months. Anyone know a site where they list futures quotes on all months for all futures? Help greatly appreciated.

Where do you think they're going? Nov is down right now in the night session to about 694-5.

My parents told me that they don't want me trading my first year of college (next year). I can't imagine going that long and not trading. Any ideas on what to say to convince them to let me trade? Thanks in advance.

I'll be opening a forex account this summer. I'll probably put around 1k in it. Any ideas on a good broker? I've some demos offered by Oanda and Forex.com.

Floor trading is totally different from what I do. I've seen lots of traders who left the floor to trade electronically, but they failed. Sure, my dad knows the basics, and has been as helpful as possible, but his help only goes so far because of the differences between pit trading and...

I work at the Chicago Board of Trade over the summers, and my dad is a trader there. However, floor trading is bound to die sometime, so I've never been big on starting a career in it. However, it's definitely something I'd like to do on my breaks during college just to learn the basics.

Naz, I was trading forex futures for awhile. That is what I was making my money in, and actually I've been doing a demo with Oanda for awhile. My parents don't want me trading in college because they fear it will interfere with my studies. I just fear it will interfere with my social life...

I've been trading for a few years. Got into stocks, did okay for awhile, then lost money and closed the account. Made a little bit through stocks to open an account to trade futures, did well, then blew everything. I'm only 18, going off to college next year, but I'd like to be able to trade...
