For stocks? Why for stocks? Ladders were meant for futures, and they don't display fragmented markets (like equities) well. Plus they are typically mouse driven... how do you do "thousands" of trades a day via mouse alone?

I can't really contribute on the same level of knowledge that sle and drownpruf has on this subject.. ..but I do see an flaw in your 'delta == price' argument, jackieo79. All your visual examples appear to be comparing the delta of a given strike to the 'BID' price of the digital, not the...

That depends if your charting software is even designed to take advantage of multiple cores. It might be single threaded.

Oanda But forex brokers offering Oil and indexes are offering CFDs, not futures. There's a big difference.

They are often non-commercial developers often doing work for free out of self interest and mutual human benefit. (With the exception of Android, being mainly developed by Google, but in that case they are following a tradition of the developers from before Google acquired the platform...as all...

Any statistics on how often a limit order is filled without the market crossing it vs the market trading through the limit price? And since your first point says an LP could be resting between the displayed quotes (and this can give clients price improvements when crossing the spread,) then...

The whole reason I brought this up is because they won't look the same. between your book and the charts. Price extremes will appear the same, but the bars will be different, starting and ending at different points, etc... Tick volume does not equal tick charts... A tick chart needs to be...

You'll have to reference IB's commission schedule.. I think $2.50 is the minimum no matter how small your size is, but there is no max and the charge is a few basis points of the notional value of the trade. Yes, I'm sure. Forex is not traded on a central exchange. It's decentralized and...

Also, about tick charts: Since FX isn't centralized, there is no 'correct' global volume or Time and Sales feed. So there really isn't a way to construct "tick charts" in the same way you'd see on the futures exchange. FX platforms will display tick volume though (instead of volume,) but...

LMAX no longer accepts Canadians, despite them being a UK firm...

If the spread is 1.8, then the "round trip" is just 1.8. You only play the spread once for the trade. Think about it like this: Assume a spread of 2 pips on XXX/USD pair and assume this price stays still for this example... if you buy at the offer right now and open a position, then to sell...

US or Non-US citizen?

I read the books as well when each was first released. Honestly, I liked the books a heck of a lot better than the movie. I also got the feeling that the first book did a much better job depicting Jordan's downward spiral into drug induced paranoia and mania.. It seemed like his vice was...

So what do the contributors get? They sure don't get protection or any return on their money... will you at least provide them entertainment? Maybe picture of you rolling in bed with their cash and signed 'sucker' at the bottom?

He's trading a bitchin' tan for a chance at skin cancer. That is a tanning bed we're looking at, right?

Again, incorrect, and ironically you linked a correct definition of "marketable limit order" in the process. Also, it's awesome how you'll just revert to insulting me directly vs defending your argument. A marketable limit order is a normal limit order where the price is set above the...

Actually, it would be on you to learn the difference in order types. He was correct when he said "marketable" limit order in his example. There is such a thing, and it's even a very common order entry style for traders working in a DMA environment.

For starting another thread with a title that can't stand on its own, requiring the reader to click through just to figure out what the thread is even about... Yes, you should quit. That shit is so annoying.
