    Is there a citizen trap in the US?

    Maybe this has already been mentioned, but Kirsten Dunst recently got German citizenship since her father is German. It was all over the Internet a few months ago since she is an A-lister. She didn't seem to have any problem with the American authorities for acquiring another citizenship...

    Good brokers vs. BAD brokers

    It's not about my puny little orders I'm worried about, but it's a matter of principle. I just want to understand what I am agreeing to when I sign their papers. If, indeed, I'm agreeing to let them front-run or delay my orders as much as they want, maybe I'd like to look elsewhere not...

    Good brokers vs. BAD brokers

    Thanks for the info, it clarifies why they would want to front-run market orders. Can you explain how they can make money out of front-running limit orders ? I can't see it right now, but maybe there is a way.

    Good brokers vs. BAD brokers

    Ok, but I still don't understand it: if they hold my order and place their order ahead of mine, that is front-running. The fair thing would be to place my order and theirs in the same order in which they arrive at their router: if my order arrives first, than it should go to the exchange...

    Futures execution question

    That's weird. When you put the buy limit order at 100.05, you should "eat" everything from 100.00 to 100.05. That's 190 contracts if I'm not mistaken so there should be 10 left as a bid at 100.05. Did you put an immediate or cancel order (or "fill or kill") ? I think that in that case...

    How about new, minimalistic trading platform... Open source of course

    So, what did you decide ? Are you going to start working on this project ? If so, I think it's better to release it early even if incomplete so that you recruit help as early as possible.
