Dang man, you posted EXACTLY what I was going to say. Leave your coins at home, but use this time to hyper accelerate your learning about them....
Shh. That information is extremely valuable. Seriously, its private information like this that one learns through the years that has great value....
People can believe what they want I suppose. I personally sold 480 contracts for a commodity for 2012 on the CME and I will not deliver a single...
Yes that's fair. I guess I am saying that I don't see customers of the CME complaining here. Its only those who participate in the market that the...
Ok, great. So, the question is, what do we use to price PM? Its all well and good to turn your back on the CME, but how iwll you establish a price...
