    Bobl/bund limit orders

    I use limit orders to trade Bund/bobl but usually I have to wait quite a long time(sometimes more than 10 minutes) before they could be executed. From the quotes shown, there are usually thousand of bid and ask but only a few transactions. Does it mean there is a very lone queue? Since I use...

    How to buy at exact price?

    I ask this question because I am playing more and more contracts. It won't be a big problem if I only play two contracts. I fear some of the orders may be filled far below the price I want. It may not be a good thing, since the price may actually start to decline.

    How to buy at exact price?

    If the price touched 1000 so the stop-limit order is activated but there are other orders in front of mine and they are executed, then the price drops down to 999.75 and my orders are still waiting. Is there still a chance that my order may be executed at other price?

    How to buy at exact price?

    It may not be the exact price I entered if the price suddenly jumps. For example, if I enter a buy order of ES at 1000, the price jumps down to 999.75, the limit order may be excecuted at that point. I mean to buy ONLY at a price, not more not less.

    Are trades indepenent?

    In statistical view, each trade should be independent with one and other. But many people agree that you should reduce your bet when you had a series of losses. This statement seems to argue that trades are dependent. Which one is true?

    IB new commission for low vol traders

    Correct me if I am wrong. If I trade less than 300 RT per month of Eurex futures, I can still save money to choose the new schedule. It is 1.4 Vs 2 per side. Is this correct?
