What is the future of Single Stock Futures? What is the hang up now? What issues still need to be resolved before their release in the U.S.? Anyone have plans to trade them? Why are you chosing SSF over an alternative? Are they catching on overseas? They had a rocky start...

http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?threadid=6015 Order routing is my interest... I will try to keep this one to PT only.

Don't be mad.... IB has tons of people in here touting them already - getting paid to do it... so I do not need to. I did used to have an IB account... it is closed now. So I know "about" IB. However, the only knowledge I have of their routing is from there website. I am familiar with...

It seems that brokers always want to handle the stock routing for us. When will a broker make a routing that we can program ourselves. Then when there are thousands of people trying different things, a better way will be determined. Right now there is probably a couple hundred people making...

I intended for the topic to be PT, it is just that it steered to IB with responses. The truth is... I was going to compare Preferred to IB when I got a response. I believe that Preferred has many good aspects for stocks and option routing. But how can some access PT without talking of...

Find a stock that trades on the NYSE and at least one major ECN with solid liquidity... Steer clear of the AMEX.

Don't do what? Post news articles...?

Tough time for graduating students. Might want to consider corporate finance. Can always come back to trading after the bull returns.

I heard AOT just fired al the PCX option floor operations? Anyone confirm this?

NEW YORK (CBS.MW) - Knight Trading Group is under investigation for "front running," in which employees at the trading firm allegedly bought stocks ahead of orders from customers and then sold them as the shares rose, the Wall Street Journal reported on Tuesday. The Securities and Exchange...

So via IB... can someone route to the Primex if that is where they want it sent? Or to ISLD, ARCA, INCA etc... without "whopper" making the call for you? Which ECNs does IB have direct links to? (not just "access"). Many frims claim they have access and what they really mean is SNET...

That is news to me... seems like everyone is consolidating and laying off people. Resumes are a waste of paper these days. New financial world motto... "Save the trees... quit applying!" Here is the worst part. There are so many middle managers that were hired when there was a shortage...

TN Does anyone know how TN routes their stock? I have never used them? Are they affiliated with ARCA? Do they allow you to choose where to route the order or do they decide for you? How does the auto routing and re-routing work? Does anyone know which exchanges and which ECN they have...

Anyone want to discuss... SuperMontage Over-rated or greatest thing since sliced bread? Liquity Tracker Not a chance of working or genious ahead of its time? Single Stock Futures Will they ever trade in the U.S.? What is the hang up now? Margin, contract size, regulation, licensing...

Has anyone traded on the Nasdaq Primex system? How are the executions? How often do you get the price improvement? Any other thoughts?

They told me that their Autotrade went to ARCA? ($15) They aslso told me they have Knight as an alternative for cheaper commissions ($9.75).

If I am only trading stock and options... Is there anything wrong with using them? They integrate with so many quote providers that it seems like a good idea? Have you had good or bad experiences with them? Thanks,

They are not allowed to make markets in their own stock. It is a control relationship. So I guess it is a bad faux pas!! NASD will have a field day with that one I am sure...

Are there any firms in San Francisco that are hiring traders, market makers etc... Experience: * Option maker * Broker * System routing * Series 7, 63, 55, 4, 3, 9 Thanks,

Ohh my.... Well you would certainly be getting in cheap!! No one is trading... commissions are way down not up at most brokerages. Firms are firing reps and traders to try and stay afloat. Firms are consolidated and there is zero expnsion. But you don't make any money buying the...
