no one is allowed to do bond squawk I think this is do to some CBOT ruling or perhaps because most of the volume is done electronically ? do any of the squawk services do nasdaq 100 futures?
xsquawk.com does nasdaq 100. A search on this site will point you to several discussions on squawk services and how some guys use them.
it makes a tremendous amount of sense, and it can bring a smile to your face when Ben points something out, that you can visualize from recalling from your experience on the floor, or in the pit itself! Ben's Awesome.
I've been using a bond pit squawk for five years. Well, now it's a ten year note pit squawk. Since 80% of the volume is now done on the screen, the value is probably dubious at best. I seem to do just as well without.
Ben was practically jumping out of his seat! (see chart) It took me a few days to get used to the pace, but after 4 days I finally got used to Ben. Realtimefutures was very flexible about letting me extend my trial as well. I've never been on a trading floor, so I didn't know what to expect but I find that listening to the squawk keeps me very focused. I tried LOS.net, but stopped after a day and went back to Ben. I couldn't get xsquawk to work on my computer...I have some type of conflict that I need to work out, so I hope I can give it a try also. I would recommend trying a squawk box if you haven't done so!
