thanks for the weather link. i also just subscribed to the hkex.com alerts (no idea when they sent it out to subscribers). had a pretty good...
thanks Dan for the bloomberg link. unfortunately, the sgxnk doesn't correlate very highly to HHI. the closest i've got is STW (Taiwan)- i'm...
sorry, i don't buy it. i've learned that bloomberg put out the story 9 minutes before it closed. it's pretty lame that IB doesn't make it a...
as title says- i found out that the HKFE closed for a typhoon AFTER it was already closed! got an alert from IB @ 11.47 PST that the HKFE was...
thanks for the input bandit. anyone else; to increase the sample size beyond one... :eek:
i think the better question, and certainly a Reg FD question, is how is it that GS denied these rumours thru improper channels. if you're going to...
i'm in CA also and GS, BSC and others are STILL frozen on my screen @ the same price they froze @ (190.23 and 119.54) over an hour ago. i've...
i know a lot of people bitch about TS for executions, etc. my interest is in the quality of the data/charts: could those who use/have used TS...

i really appreciate your thorough response. i have been thinking of shifting to the ES or YM for the reasons you've stated. i have been stubbornly...
the irony is that my best market, BY FAR, is the HSI/HHI.HK- the most volatile equity futures i can find. i get my head handed to me there @...
i made a fat head mistake TWICE today: i've been having trouble with TWS where it's taking a good second to go from click to green (sits @...
i trade the ER2 and i am REALLY struggling with this recent volatility when i know i should be thriving. i see the p/l thread and i feel like i'm...
