TGM, I think you are correct concerning the big Spoo. If they close the pit in maybe 3-5 years, they will most likely delist/discontinue the big contract. The ETF futures are a good thing with all the SHO list trouble lately. Maybe Merc has more luck than ONE in attracting a bit...

hmm.... However, for the EUR/USD I see a quote like yours with my account, but the field "Last" displays "C1.3243". I have never seen a trade dissemination in IDEALPRO. Only "C...". However, I see Last Prices for IDEAL. Am I doing something wrong ? Does the account need to be set...

to IB: Why don't you display the last traded price / volume ? I see on your internal TWS screenshots (posted on page 3 by Steve) that your employees seem to get this information, but not your customers. I'd say there is no reason for that... Is it possible you add the last traded...

Any news already on CME's end ? They will have to match that $.05, I would say.

I really did not get this. Just wondering it is over 1/2 yr old and nothing happened. Any news out - approvals / CFTC / FSA ? But let's hope Eurex platform improvements (they plan to take the "quotes netting" from CEF feed by end of october) are effective, because the current feed in...

Any information on this ? I cannot find the original post - however a) I strongly doubt Eurex will introduce Russell Futures. AFAIK the CME's license arrangement with Russel is exclusive, like with S&P b) I have doubt they can offer commodities in near future. The problem is, to offer...

got it. thx omcate ! I understand now QQQ dividend policy (quite complex), but they still make no statement if they actually have an ex-div record date on June 22 or not :eek:

Hello, does anyone know whether QQQ will pay a dividend during next weeks (june) and if so, which day ? I searched my a** off for this :( , but could only come up with that last time they paid was in 12/2003.

Yeah, two months, I noticed about the same period since then. It started earlier, I would even say last year, but for me it got quite obvious over last 2 months.

Hey, has anybody except me also the impression that market trendiness in the ES/NQ has expanded over the whole day ? The midday doldrums, low-volume, whip-saw-styled no-action between 11am and 1pm seem no longer present., at least not in the way I knew them. Instead, there now often...

you mean hotspotFX they have other drawbacks. maybe IB starts it's FX operations soon...

Hello, many retail FX shops do not allow the user to submit limit buy or sell orders within or near the current quote. E.g. if EURUSD is 1.2060 - 1.2064, many firms will not allow the user to submit buy or sell limit orders within 1.2055 - 1.2069. You can place limits only away from the...
