    FFASTFILL Lower than IB??

    FFASTFILL Lower than IB??

    Since you work for IB and it is clear that I work for FFastFill, it is probably a good idea that we keep this down to a minimum. The last time we went at it, you never sent the full log. Most people felt that there was a reason for that and you sure the hell didn't prove me wrong. CITRIX is...

    FFASTFILL Lower than IB??

    The system is delivered over Citrix and anyone that has an IT background will tell you that the technology is very efficient and unfortunately very expensive to deliver. Ask IB how many updates per second they use for the Eminis and also ask them how fast they turn a trade around. If you...

    FFASTFILL Lower than IB??

    OPM8, The math definitely does not Lie, but FFastTrade also charges on a month to month basis. Clients are charged in the middle of the month and they have a chance to take time off if they choose, as long as they give a couple of weeks notice. If you do not trade over 750 sides a month...

    Any Mini Dow Traders?

    Policy is $.50 plus exchnage fees and NFA fees per side. Whatever the exchange fees are plus $.50. FFastTrade is taking a wait and see approach to SSFs, due to the uncertainty of the Exchange API for OneChicago and the NQLX exchange's slow response to ASP firms.

    Any Mini Dow Traders?

    Does IB charge $1.26 per side for the MiniDow? If so, they are at $2.52 Round Trip. FFastTrade is at: $1.04 Round trip! $1.48 LESS unless I am missing something. Remember, the system charge at FFastTrade when calculating your total cost. If you trade over 372 round trips a month...

    Any Mini Dow Traders?

    FFastTrade is $3.32 round trip for Minis and even less for Eurex products and the MiniDOW. Basically, the MiniDOW is $1.04 round trip all in. The difference is you need to pay $550 per month for the FFastFill System. DAX is $1.70 Round Trip FTSE is $1.94 Round Trip Bonds are $3.70 Round...

    Any Mini Dow Traders?

    FFastTrade charges $550 per month for its Remote Pro System, so you would need to amortise it and figure out if your volume justifies this. Basically the Transaction costs are about $1.50 lower than anyone else, so if you trade over 350 lots it makes sense. It is fasat as well!

    Any Mini Dow Traders?

    Round Trip trades in the MiniDOW through FFastTrade are $1.04, that's .52 per side. This is for the period that the CBOT has their fees waived. Eurex is waiving fee in the Stoxx 50 as well! It's a good idea to take a look at these contracts!

    Toby, I run a Trading firm and I have seen quite a few very large Arb guys moving into the Dow or looking into the a move. It looks like it may start to hop. Also, I have been working with the CBOT and they are spending a fortune to market it to the Retail crowd. I believe their marketing...

    MiniDOW Fees and Execution

    The $2 Mini will be discontinued, but the $5 Multiplier is starting to get interest. I know of several fairly large Arbitrageurs that are entering the Market in October. With the Exchnage fee waiver in place, there should be some additional players. If you can trade a Volatile and fairly...

    Any Mini Dow Traders?

    The CBOT has waived Exchange fees in the MiniDOW for the 4th Quarter and FFastTrade is offering $1.04 Round Trip. I believe that Liquidity will come to this market. Several large traders have strated to Arb the Floor versus the Screen and it should be a good trade.
