FWIW, I believe this also. I would be willing to bet ET traffic has fallen over the last 10 years.
If you elitetrader.com administrators do a plot of NYSE composite volume, ES volume, or say SPY volume versus unique visitors per day (or page...
Aren't those guys futures only? And they're for manual traders, I thought.
This isn't true. They don't autoclose out, they often go into just liquidate-only modes, but if you have watched moves over the past few years,...
That's a relief. It would really suck to be working at McDonald's every day to pay my debts under the threat of some Don Bright character...
I'm not talking prop firms where you get paid a salary and are some W2 employee, I'm more talking about your Bright Brothers, Hold, Title, etc...
No, I meant, what do you think the model missed or was unable to dodge with the less successful trades?
I guess I'm curious why the performance was so incredibly smooth at one point. Whatever those market conditions were... I'm wondering what your...
Care to comment on how you calculate flow into indexes and ETFs? It's hard to hate ETFs, though. Almost all of my big losses in the market...

Yeah, but what if it's 21.00 x 21.10, and the order gets internalized at 21.10 instead of probing for midpoints or dark liquidity between the...
I've resorted to just doing all-cash deals for everything, even a home. It's hard to keep a perpetual edge in the market, so I sort of lean with...

For stocks, we have nasdaqdod.com for small data sets. Is there anywhere I can get data for the ES that's of the same quality? I need bid/ask...
Processors are generally not your biggest risk in terms of stability. Your chipset, motherboard, memory, power supply, etc. All those other...
I faced this exact same (well, very similar) decision in April of this year. I actually went for the i7-3930k, and I paired it with 64GB of ram...
