In my opinion, one of the best ways to get cheap office space in the exchange building, is to clear through Advantage and then rent an office from...
Its not free, but I run MDaemon and like it a lot. http://www.altn.com/
If you're clearing through Advantage, probably the easiest thing to do is to have all invoices sent to their accounting department and let them...
Sounds like you clear through Advantage. They're the only ones I know of that keep a separate expense account. You can pretty much deduct all...
In my opinion exchange infrastructure alone makes DAX (or any Eurex product) less scary than the HSI. Eurex is very solid. Plus, if I remember...
Agreed...I love the DAX...plus I prefer trading at night into the early morning.
Does anyone know or have an opinion on what the CME is most likely going to do with these 106.R Memberships come December 2006? I keep thinking...
Ok, I just got off the phone with Robert Green and confirmed that this is, in fact, correct. There is no self employment tax on profits from...
Hey, if you say you had a lot of problems with them, who am I to argue with you. All I can tell you is that I trade every day and it never once...

This is assuming that you haven't purchased or leased any kind of exchange membership, which, if you did enough volume to make you commission rate...
Advantage Futures (www.advantagefutures.com) is pretty big and very well capitalized. Not quite as well as Man or Rosenthal, but if you look at...
Hey Scalper, What kind of volume do you think you'd have to do with Advantage in order to get 25 cents per side with a $16,000 progressive cap?
Dude, this is going to sound a bit harsh, but its true. This is what happens when you try trading a market that you shouldn't be trading anyways....
Assuming that financial and technical stability is an important factor, then it depends on volume. If you're doing hardly any volume at all,...
I don't know if I would trust millions to any FCM, but I would trust maybe $25k - $50k to almost any FCM and would trust maybe as much as $200k to...
I moved from Velocity to TransAct and I love them. At first I didn't like their software, but after getting used to it, I think its just as...
