I'm very eager to see OEC' performance during NFP tomorrow :eek:

We had junk data for 3 days now. I had some orders lagging behind in the Dom during European trading but not this type of outage I had in the afternoons without charts and quotes. Obviously OEC can't handle the amount of clients that come in during American trading hours :mad:

They only send mails to live traders with more than 5000 USD in their account :D ;-)

Us? Who is us? :confused: :D

My rates are 20-30 cts below than that I posted. I am at OEC and quite pleased now after they got rid of a nasty bug they had with Eurex futures some time ago.

Do you have to pay additionally for platform and data feed? If not take 3 Eur for Fdax and 2.5 for Fesx as a good starting point.

Fesx Orderbook

When Fesx is too slow, have a look at Fgbl

=>so it isn't possible to buy limit on the ask? for example, is see 50 on the ask and send a 75 order to buy on this ask, this order always has to be a market order. but can i change the attributes of this order so the remaining 25 don't get filled on the ask above? so that in a way i am...

Is it correct to state the following: When I see a trade printed on the tape on the bid ,ask or between, this can be a limit or a market order that is causing a limit order on the other side to be filled. No, it is always a market order that leads to a fill on the other side. It is...

This bug is an absolute catastrophe for a futures broker and it happened to me multiple times now. The worst is you can't tell when it will happen - there are times it will not - and above all it is possible that you can't get out of an open position :eek: As far as I can reproduce this...

http://www.eurexchange.com/trading/products/IDX/STX/BLC/FESX_en.html?mode=trading_hours This is Central European Time. Shouldn't be hard to figure out ET. I suggest you have a look at market depths. Fdax differs very much from Fesx in volatility and liquidity (around 130k contracts vs. over...

Some perhaps http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/3286721.stm :D

i began trading forex and switched to futures. but http://www.forexfactory.com/calendar.php is helpful in any way

btw: this concerns eurex futures. i don't trade es. perhaps you should try the demo and have a look

me anyone scalping fdax will find bund suitable as well i'd say. though it's more the orderbook i would look at instead of correlation driven fdax (to fesx).

i didn't experience a disconnect since last time. but data is not 100%. you will not see every tick or exact volume every time. so it depends on your style of trading.

Fdax has the better cost return ratio due to higher volatility and higher tick value. You need about 4 fesx contracts to create the same value per move.

Understood. Since when does OEC charge you the fees? Is it since 1/1/09? I negotiated lower (than standard) fees when I started trading with them some time ago. I will continue trading this week and see for myself if anything changed.
