I know so little about spreads, mostly just that they limit risk. I have recently thought that corn looks ready to go down. Are you trading (and...
I once had slow, dial-up internet and traded futures all right with Ibdirect several years ago, but their commissiions seem to be too high now...
Ok, thanks. I've got a lot to learn about earnings.
ryan, thanks! bry ps, what's MA's report?
ryan, i think the question might be, when the markets change to bearish will you just as likely get into puts? or in a choppy top, would you...

wow, ryanpatrick, you are doing great! keep it up, man! am going to have to spend more time reading thru all your posts, hope you gave us some...
wondering what your balance is now? you started with $2686, right? hope ur up
