When do the PIIGS just tell the EU to take a flying fuck?

I brought this up here as a gift. This will be the most profitable futures trade available for the coming year. China is about to do another major re-valuation upward of the RMB.

CME just recently launched futures in the Chinese Yuan currency. Has anyone here traded this yet? I just looked it up today and here are some details: The December contract is: RMBZ11 Bid: 0.15600 Ask: 0.15800 Tick size is: 0.00001 = $10.00 Initial margin: $1,440 Maintenance...

If he was diagnosed in 2003, then he lived about 8 years, which is pretty close to the survival rate of the medical route. So, it wouldn't seem to be a failure, but a success, as he didn't have to go to the chop shop, and deal with chemo side effects.

I am going to end to love fest, and remind people that FXCM is being fined by the NFA!

I will divulge a secret that will change the whole way you view price action. Sigma channels. Set up 4 separate bollinger bands, the first at 1 standard deviation, second at 2, third at 3, fourth at 4. Then set this on intraday, daily, weekly, and monthly charts. Then let the magic happen...

They were notorious for stop runs and spiking prices to create margin liquidations.

Short TBT! Long TLT! The fed is going to pledge low rates, and they have the power to do it. Growth is at stall speed now, there's no catalyst for higher rates. A downgrade would actually make rates fall, because it would change the risk free rate of all asset classes globally, huge flight to...

Foreign direct investment.

I hate sales tax. But at this point with the state bugets, that's just part of the new normal. The whole internet being exempt from sales tax has been a bit like the wild west, we all knew it wouldn't last forever.

You all are so full of shit! Hahaha! The only way to trade the markets is to have an understanding of monetary theory economics, and riding the large trends of monetary expansion. Trying to trade against hedge funds program trading is just dumb and gambling.

If Moody's downgrades US treasuries, Moody's will become irrelevant.

That's the first time you've seen a sell program? They happen all the time. There are buy and sell programs. They are performed by large funds that arb the equities versus the futures.

The true exit strategy is for the debt ceiling not to be raised. Interest rates will balloon, and the fed can continue to keep zirp and print money.

Trading a derivative of a derivative is such a horrible waste of money. If you want to trade the eminis, just trade the futures contract. Stay away from the options.

If China does sell their USD reserves, the yuan will have to rise by at least 50%, which is not in their interest. They may want certain things to exist, but there are consequences to every desire and decision.

I know most here don't want to face reality, but....the falling dollar is the cause of higher oil prices. It is also the cause of higher commodities in general. The US economy is sinking to the rest of the world, as it sinks, oil, and other commodities will continue to rise. The federal reserve...

End of qe 2 will be lower treasury yields, as well as lower commodity and stock prices.

Finally someone who has common sense on the board. Most people here are delusional about the effects of money printing. The fed has created the biggest inflation in world history, and now we are beginning to see the true effects.

So true...Green energy is a sham, a pipe dream. The energy flux density of wind energy is shit. It takse so much energy to produce the parts, assemble the windmill, and transmit the energy, that it will never have an actual positive energy output. There is so much natural gas, and crude oil...
