Present your ATM card from XYZ bank and get a free small popcorn! (Where XYZ bank is the GUARANTEED most prominent within the SRDS metro zone, with an undisclosed position.) If I was a gambler instead of a futures trader I'd go long Knight and Day, opening June 23.
Under the Trend Exchange (institutional) model, products will not be listed for trading until 6 weeks prior to their release date. The Cantor Exchange (retail) model plans to list movies up to 6 months prior to their release date. Even so, it would be very impractical strategically, and impossible to execute. Who actually believes James Cameron would prefer to profit from a manipulation of these markets, as opposed to the HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS he's earned through simple straightforward direction of blockbuster movies? In addition, the size of the position that someone like Cameron would need to establish to try such a strategy would be impossible under existing federal regulations around position limits and large trader restrictions. Seriously though, these types of ignorant comments are allowed in a trading forum?
