Only way to be sure is to ring CBOE and get a live quote when u enter and when u exit. in other words Audit ur broker. I've read about the NFA handing out fines to clearing groups for not meeting their obligations.... which are "to provide a fair and orderly market".

I'm aware of Globex, I'm aware of CME , I'm aware that I can place trades on the market. We're not talking about that. What this thread is talking about is options appearing to move drastically in one direction whilst not moving drastically in the other direction as one would assume. Which...

Dunno why ur talking about settlement prices for. My last trade was I entered a ES call for $5.0 and the ES jumped 10 points. I thought that my option should have at least gone to $9-$10 however the quotes / mid went to only $5.80..... 80cents??????? AFTER A 10 POINT MOVE IN THE ES??? I...

I lost 1/3 of my account due to this, thats my experience. I would screenshot options chains of the ES and then screen shot them with a 10+- point difference. Everything seemed normal. Then when I entered a trade and tried to close the trade 10 points later, I would get a different results...

Um, yes they can. Depends who you are clearing with. Who are you clearing with and who is your broker?

Graphics card won't make a difference Ham, just get a cheap "WORKSTATION" graphics card. Not a gaming 1. Fast Ram / Cpu combo.

Kinetick is the Cheapest I'm sure, plus u get unlimited historical data I think.

Hi, I've noticed that with a lot of the brokers I look they all clear through smaller companies, like Amp, Rjo and Rosenthal. Infact all of them. No1 clears through UBS, Jp Morgan.... Any reason?

:D

Sounds like there are some good signals out there if Deutsch made that much $$. U gotta remember that Buffet did the same thing. He purchased Berkshire (originally a fabric company) when it was at a rock bottom price, and he almost went under because of it because the company almost...

Thanks Jeff. I traded straddles for 6 months and only dreamed about that trade u landed. I think u could setup a bloomberg terminal to look for ideal stocks. Dunno if it justifies $75 K tho. I appreciate the thoughts. I'm thinking that it might be a good strategy if 1 leg gets closed out...

Quite a read there Ninja. IMO the main point is that was the company going to go bankrupt anyway? If so Deutch didn't have a leg to stand on. Didn't matter what fidelity did or Deutch buying the shares. They completely screwed up BTW, fidelity that is. So many interesting points from that...

Yea I thought about that however I hadn't been with IB for a while so didn't say. I thought OP was looking for just Data. Quite cheap.... why bother at all? I wasn't aware about the free data from BATS. So TY.

Hi Et, So I've decided to jump back on the ol straddle trade. Originally, I used to close straddles out after a 50% return. Now I've been trading a while, I'm kinda thinking that mbey I should close out 1 leg after that trade has doubled in $$. Then my thinking was to hold the other leg...

How can u have 780 posts and still be a beginner? No there is no free access to live or even 1 minute quotes. Ur gonna have to cough up some cash. Which is only like $15 or something a month.

Can't wait for ES to snap out of this current market
