Are there any brokers who's native platform performs point and figure charting?

Looking at examples in books where they show historical prices to do some kind of analysis they don't show what contract they are using. If you were to forecast a price based off previous years price and crop reports would you use the nearest month contract? Or would you use the contract for the...

Thanks Brighton! That's exactly what I am looking for. Much appreciated.

I was looking on the usda website but they are currently down because of the government shutdown. Do they have historical crop estimates on their website? If not where could I go to get them? I am planning on doing some fundamental analysis and just mess around with some regression analysis and...

Ma Bell was the furthest thing from free-market you could get. It was a government supported monopoly. Free-market economics is simply two parties mutually exchanging goods for mutual benefit without any coercion. About the closest thing to free-market economics we have would be ebay or...

education is not a right it's a responsibility. Your parents are responsible to teach you and provide an education for you, not the government. We didn't have a D.O.E. in this country for a long time and we seemed to prosper pretty well. Then the government got involved and look what has...

you do not have a right to food. You do not have a right to a house. You do not have a right to clothes. You do not have a right to good health. Just because they are basic needs doesn't give you a right to them. You do have a right to protect your property though. No one can take something...

i've been having a lot problems with the site. I used hedgestreet but nothing seems to work right on the new site. Has anyone else been able to trade on the new site?

one is the bond market, the other is the futures market.

Liberals abort their children.

The Securities Exchange Commission doesn't have oversight of the Futures market.

No what these countries are doing is building billion dollar islands and creating 2000 ft buildings. Dubai is built with American dollars. All of that money could have been used here.

Weren't bellies huge in the 80s? There is almost zero volume in them now. Is it because of all the index futures now? Maybe I'm off because I'm only in my 20s but it seems like I used to hear a lot about bellies.

I've seen this on the internet thought I'd share Bar Stool Economics Suppose that every day, ten men go out for beer and the bill for all ten comes to $100. If they paid their bill the way we pay our taxes, it would go something like this: The first four men (the poorest) would pay...

Anyone who thinks that small government and free-markets got us into this mess is seriously confused. Government intervention has caused all of these problems with artificially low interest rates, requiring lenders to lend to high risk individuals etc. Nice South Park reference with the...

collectivism will always fail. 100 individuals making 100 decisions will produce better results than 10 groups of 10 making 10 decisions.

Why are you losing over 20% of your capital on one day of trading?

I'm just watching the grains and it seems like a lot of the spreads have hit a floor and i'm just wondering if they are trading near full carry. I can't find anything on the web that states what the carry is.

Where can you look to find the storage and carry costs of the grains?

it's lose not loose. It's all about the leverage. FXCM gives 200:1 leverage. So he really only made about 5% on his money he just had it leveraged 200 times. If his account was ten times bigger he probably cuts the leverage to 20:1 or 2:1 and his gains drop to 100% or 10%. Why rag on...
