    Nadex, how are spread contracts and binary options taxed?

    Anyone know? Spread contracts at nadex.com appear to be capped futures, does that mean they're eligible to be treated like futuers? What about binary options?

    Amibroker users - what about your data feed?

    What do you mean IQ is lagging and not ready for prime time? This is the first I've heard of this. Do you have any more evidence of this or is this a single case with this single exchange? Generally they have gotten very good reviews for the price. I have been happy with them. I would love to...

    What are some reasons to trade ETFs instead of futures?

    Just wanted to get some ideas about this, I know the two are very different and what advantages exist for intraday trading, whether it be short swings, scalping, or whatever. Differences in margin, etc? Thx.

    What instrument tracks gold and trades in volume during overnight?

    Ah that looks more like it. GC has much more overnight volume than ZG. Thanks. What is ZG? The emini gold?

    What instrument tracks gold and trades in volume during overnight?

    What instrument tracks gold and trades in volume during overnight?

    What instrument tracks gold and trades in volume during overnight?

    Are those the symbols for the electronic sessions because I see 3 gold future contracts on NYMEX and none of them are those symbols.

    Question about order types on CME

    Ah yeah sorry, I should have been more specific. Futures only. Surely with options they'd have to support that at the exchange otherwise those option strategies wouldn't be possible. In fact I think certain option strategies have their own product codes, not sure about that at CME. So with...

    Question about order types on CME

    Not sure what IB has to do with this. Isn't it the systems at the exchange that decide this? CME would have this ability no? (or not have it, as the case may be). Also you said these two products are unrelated. Can you give me an example of two products that are related that you could do this...

    Question about order types on CME

    Can I submit an order to buy n contracts (say n is a low number for simplicity) of front month corn futures and also to buy n contracts of front month wheat futures so that they are either both filled or neither filled?
