DanG,
I think what is comical is that at about the same time the Futures industry
is approving SSF, the Securities industry is trying to choke the small
daytrader with new regs forcing all those people to start trading futures.
Once they get trained to trade futures, this could have some ramifications
for commodities by getting renewed interest from the small speculator.
Soybeans will be only one phone call away for the IBM trader.
Cheers,
Norman
