    Interactive Brokers API Guarenteed Execution Help

    Interactive Brokers API Guarenteed Execution Help

    Hmm. I see TWAP algo on IB isn't guaranteed but there is a guaranteed VWAP for large caps. I wonder if it betters better than simply buying the ask or selling the bid or is it just a way to smooth out orders over a longer period?

    Interactive Brokers API Guarenteed Execution Help

    I use the Interactive Brokers API and excel to send out orders to buy and sell stock. Years ago I used to have it send a buy order to the bid and sell order on the ask and wait to get filled. However, too many times the market would move (sometimes thin stocks) and the slippage would be too...

    AMr Capital?

    Not sure what desk that was but the one I was on had a few seniors making great money. The commissions and payout are bad but I would rather make $500 a day and take home $350 than lose money and leave the business. If you are a great trader already than go for the best deal of course but if...

    Any traders here know how to get around the Michigan Business Tax that hits after you make $350,000? Its an extra 6% and I will be getting hit this year after moving to the state. I know its gone in 2012 but that does not help me this year. Thanks for any advice.

    AMr Capital?

    AMR is great. I went to them 8 years ago with no money down and now have a great career. They have been trustworthy and legit the entire time and I am thankful I landed with them out of college instead of one of the numerous shady groups.

    Commission and Payout Rate

    I've been working at a trading desk under a mentor for over 3 years now. When I started I had nothing but now I've built up a small amount of cash. The problem is my rates are still at 75% payout and 1.5 cents commission. Are there much better deals out there? I feel I'm more of a senior...
