    my 1 share execution

    This shit, along with sub penny bids/offers, has hit a nerve with me recently. Maybe it's because I also found out that two out of the four poker rooms that I play at, cheat. The rooms allow people (who pay them under the table of course) to buy in late when the tournament is down to the final...

    Did Altucher fail as a trader?

    This guy sounds like a frustrated and conceited individual. Frankly, I find him annoying and I wish he'd keep his mouth shut with articles like these since it only serves to keep new traders from starting or continuing, and new traders help provide new money for those of us who do make...

    I've never traded binary options before so I just gave the numbers a quick glance. I stand corrected.

    Low risk way to make a 66% return (unleveraged) in 2012

    Obama is quoted at around a 60% chance to win on Intrade at the moment. So a bet/trade for him to win would only net a 40% return.

    80% tax rate Means prosperity

    I didn't read every post so forgive me if the following point has already been made. Back when American's paid much higher taxes, and people seemed ok with it, the government was probably run much more efficiently, which gave people faith in their government. Today the government has gotten so...

    Trading like a Local

    The folks who do this strategy profitably through screen trading are for the most part registered market makers and their big advantage, aside from lower transaction costs and better info on large order flows, is having the ability to have both sides of the market (bid and ask) working at the...

    100:1 Spot Forex Margin

    Yeah, I know it's illegal in the US. I had an account with dbfx with 100:1 but they are now closing their retail fx arm, so I was just curious if anyone knew of any other banks that may offer it.

    How liquid is the Euro FX on the CME?

    There are hundreds, if not thousands, of contracts bid and offered with a 1 pip spread. It is an extremely liquid contract. Each standard contract equals 125,000 Euro's. So you're talking about a 6-12 million Euro position size.

    The 10,000 hour rule.

    I have been trading for about ten years, with about six being mostly full time. I have been trading currencies for five years and professionally for the last three. I actually feel like I am proficient at currency trading, but humility is still my main focus as the market can gobble up 10...

    Future of American Cities

    I live just outside of Detroit. I visit the casinos downtown every so often to play poker and maybe a baseball game every now and then. Aside from a few select places (sports fields, casinos, a couple museums, and a few bars) the city is depressing and dilapidated. The folks, like myself, who...

    Benefits of FX Hedging

    There is no direct financial benefit to being long and short the same pair at the same time. Actually there is a negative aspect because you will always have a net negative roll over fee. However, if you are trading two or more different strategies with the same account, it is possible that...
