    Front Running, Flash Orders, or Blackbox/Algorithmic Manipulation?

    I really don't know what you are looking at but you are dead wrong. The es, nq, even the ym did not have the moves cl did. Nq was in about a 13-15 slow point move, es about the same while cl from yesterday is over 4 dollars. The majority of the move in Nq, ES was premarket. So based upon...

    what's up with IB P.O.S #*$@#*

    Is it because you are on a different server? I know myself I had a few issues when the Asian market opened, can't say overnight but then premarket after 830a.m.

    Front Running, Flash Orders, or Blackbox/Algorithmic Manipulation?

    This was really evident today in the cl futures. I am seriously looking at restricting my trading to options until the fall to see what the SEC is going to do. It is getting harder to make money on a daily bases in the futures. Nq and es are in such tight ranges lately and with cl it is...

    what's up with IB P.O.S #*$@#*

    Yes, the stock bid asks came back on open but I had one hell of a time exiting my short cl today. Options are okay. My platform kept freezing and sometimes would go purple and would come back on after the moves. This happened at 127pm and into close and 225pm was the last time. Now...

    IB Chronic Data Feed Issue

    Hi Kiwi, I am not an IB hater, just trying to help out or give a heads up too traders as I appreciate receiving it from them. Is that not what ET is about? Why is it anytime anyone says anything that people like you do not agree with they are stupid or a twat. I'm sorry you are such an...

    IB Chronic Data Feed Issue

    "actually I said that, I stated I now use IB as my back up and now do very little trading their." and you are correct I am happier. You will also notice I did not recommend any broker or state where I do most of my day trading.

    IB Chronic Data Feed Issue

    Yes, but how does that fix the issue if you are using their platform. The esignal data still has to be received and sent to me to execute and more important why should I have too? Their claims of faster execution and fair prices using smart routing are not true or at least in my case as...

    IB Chronic Data Feed Issue

    These designs faults are intentional. IB continues to update and claim they are the cheapest or one of them. My brother and I have been comparing their feed and the Bid Ask almost always lags or in not accurate. They will ask you to provide screen shots, your logs but never "really address...

    Average execution time on IB's IDEAL PRO

    My brother and I have been comparing the Bid Ask on the futures most today the NQ and consistently for the past hour IB is lagging almost a full point with the BID ASK on Ameritrade. I am going to be watching my trades and following my brother very closely next wk and compare that with the...

    Spitzer: Federal Reserve is ‘a Ponzi scheme, an inside job’

    The Federal Reserve nor any of the Banks have ever cared or any other government agency. They could care less how their actions reflex on anyone. Their salaries and bonus packages are just a little example. It is pure and simple about money. They will never get an audit of the Reserve's...

    Meredith Whitney: "Unemployment is headed to 13%"

    She is just as corrupt as the rest. How any one can upgrade a stock on the eve or close to reporting, is criminal. She upgrades Goldman the only one out of 7-8 Financials I believe she watchs. Somewhere she got / was bought and the worse thing about people like her is they have no...

    why IB is not showing the true size?

    Hi, I am not able to get my account page to show my positions correct since the open today. I have traded several futures contracts and the trade is not showing in trades and only some on the account page. I have logged off and on many times and nothing. My account page shows I am flat when...

    My workstation also has been frozen during the night for the last week or so. IB HK told me that I should log off and on to clear it. I now am forced to log off and on a couple of times a night.
