at any broker your margin is going to be based on the actual position rather than the theoretical finished position when you are done legging in. So it depends on your available buying power, if you can handle the naked short for a while, then leg it, if you can't, buy the longs first or...

I'm just your avg retail trader, but I'll take a stab at explaining this to the best of my knowledge. From their website, thier main product seems to be MIS- market information server. This is what is known as a feed handler. This takes the raw feed from different exchanges, likely each in its...

no basis for this, but if I had to guess I would say 100k start-up and 5-10k / month for colo / data.

They can't change where we are going, only how fast we get there.

Excellent review, I have used all three as well and the ratings are spot on. Couple of points, TOS requires full margin for intraday futs as well, TS's only saving grace is the easy backtesting and the depth of thier historical data. TOS customer service is incomparable in the discount...

if you need to switch monitors too, you might consider windows remote desktop, if you only need to switch keyboard and mouse you may consider synergy http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/ both free and easy. I use both these and also have a kvm switch and i still usually use remote desktop into...

The way this reads to me is that the mistake is on the 1099 sender's end, not recieving end. So as the reciever, this mistake is beyond your control. 1099 are due to employees by jan 31 but corp tax returns are due either 3 /15 or 3/31 , not sure. so companies could send them out, wait a month...

correct. look at it from your brokers standpoint- they are supposed to be providing a secure connection. yet when the dual wan router fails over you are now communicating w/ your broker on a connection that was established on one public IP but just switched that public ip mid connection. I'd be...

He's not talking about averaging the signal but rather using an average in lieu of the offset. I don't actively use SS but have it up on my chart. Unlike most, I don't center it at 0 with a manual offset everyday. I leave the raw YM-INDU value with moving avg (BB's actually) and the MA is always...

Futures usually lead cash as they offer quicker, leveraged exposure, but not always. So if we get a cash rally that drags the futures up you can see what you saw this afternoon. Big changes in interest rates and component stock dividends during the day can impact FV. Like steve, I do not use...

Good topic. I've been trying to resolve these two in my head as well. On their own they both make sense, but together they are in conflict. Busy now but I'm going to come back to this.

BM, the thought that has run through my head more than once while reading your posts over the past few days is, and I don't mean this disrespectfully in any way, to take a break. Take a vacation from SCT. Let your mind subconsciously process what it knows and doesn't know. This is alot of...

Yes, but not straight out of the box. It's an add on that you have to have enabled by your broker.

I'm working from memory here as I haven't used tt in a few years, but it's basically how far you want to let prices drift from your target spread price before requoting the legs. Fuzzy here- but I remember inside and outside slop. Inside being a better spread price and outside being worse. This...

I don't know- I don't use ninja, but it is listed as one of the supported platforms: http://www.opentick.com/index.php?app=content&event=platforms So me thinks it should work. That's not a bad combo for getting into system development. As far as I know, ninja is free for sim trading and...
