Can yo give me an example of a bad fill? Let's say I have a limit of $1 credit. You're saying it could be filled at something else?

It's completely free? Are you getting 15 minute delayed quotes? If I buy 1,000 put spreads, that'll still cost 0? lol I'm at the website, not very descriptive. Anyone have experience on Robinhood Options?

And if you tell you broker not to? Or just don't mention it at all?

Wait, his wife got fired. The husband is still trading his ass off at the same job?

Well that's not a problem if you're going for a career change (going from banking to nursing maybe? lol) or by some miracle you're able to successfully live off your trading profits. Why did your guy get caught? He just couldn't keep his mouth shut at a bar with his boss one day?

And if you get fired, you'll never work in finance again.

Wait so my friend is giving BD's too much credit? They won't know unless I tell them or log in to my account with their IP? I don't see how they would find out if you have a broker nobody's ever heard of.

That doesn't work, you need to register all your trades.

They've actually made it so hard to trade while working now that you basically need to choose between your job and trading securities. 1) You need to register the account 2) All trades that you do needs to be approved by your manager 3) All trades that you do needs to be approved by compliance...

Just to be clear so I don't get a moral lesson. I'M NOT PLANNING ON DOING THIS. I'm however curious because a lot of banks seem behind the curve when it comes to compliance. I heard your company doesn't really find out but they're just protecting themselves from the SEC if they do so? But SEC...

ok

I suggest you not troll. When you don't have anything of value to add.

What have you been told?

It'd help our exports? Plain and simple, we have all these products made in China, a weak dollar would bring some manufacturing home. Ofcourse it's never that simple right? The Eur/Usd went up a lot in the past few months. I'm not familiar with EU politics, but didn't they print a ton of...

See, I find this image pretty unsettling: We know the fed is pumping money into the market, but my question is HOW MUCH are they doing it? Are they making up for 50% of the volume? That sounds absurd, but imagine the fed being the only buyer in the market that matters now. The dollar is...

That's pretty scary since this was almost 12 years ago... They're still buying up assets from 2008??

What I don't get is, are you saying banks act as a middle man for US Treasuries? If the fed is buying them from banks to give them cash, than they are not getting it from the government directly.

Thanks you that makes sense! However, what's there to prevent the banks from using these liquid assets to buy illiquid assets again? What if they buy more treasury bonds? Also if that is the case, why does the fed only buy treasuries? Banks hold many non-liquid assets.

If they are buying government bonds, how is it NOT lending money to the government? US treasuries are debts issues by them. Or are they not?

This is what I don't get Open market operations (OMO) refers to when the Federal Reserve purchases and sells primarily U.S. Treasury securities on the open market in order to regulate the supply of money that is on reserve in U.S. banks, and therefore available to loan out to businesses and...
