That's what I thought, but it looks like the $DXC might be included as one of their standard indices. I'm just curious.

Can someone with eSignal who does NOT pay the NYBOT exchange fee please tell me whether you're getting real-time or delayed data for the $DXC symbol? I'm just asking about the actual index, not the futures on the index. Thank you. Regards,

According to both IQFeed and eSignal, the only US futures exchanges that charge higher data fees for pros are CBOE ($5 vs $1) and OneChicago ($10 vs $1). When I switched to professional status it didn't change my monthly fees at all. It's the equities people who get screwed...

Hi. Does anyone know if the physical contracts will still trade after-hours on Globex as separate issues from the cash-settled contracts that will trade 23 hours/day? I'm trying to get my data vendor (IQFeed) to figure out whether there's a new symbol for the cash-settled contracts...

On exchange-traded futures (such as CME currency contracts) there is only one price at any given time, and brokers have no role in setting that price. OTC forex is completely different. Spot currencies are traded on the interbank market, which is a large, unregulated network comprised of...

Professionals don't pay any more in data fees than individuals on US futures exchanges; only true for US equities exchanges.

It's entirely reasonable to assume that anything you do on a computer at work is viewed by your employer, especially if you work for a larger company.

It sounds like you have mostly winners if you trade without a stop, but you're experiencing an occasional big loser that's wiping out your gains -- is that correct? Do you like scalping? Do you feel like it's a good match for your personality and situation? If you're not respecting your...

You're going to see a wide range of values because of the many different trading styles out there. A position trader's numbers are going to look much different than a short-term trader's. One can be profitable across a range of ratios/probabilities. It's more important that you find a...

Can you provide some more info as to why 40k isn't sufficient to trade this strategy on your own, even if it's with small size? It sounds like your opportunity cost is close to zero (i.e., you're not walking away from a paycheck at the moment, right?).

A bid tick means that the price of the tick (i.e., a single trade) was at the bid price. An ask tick means they hit the offer.

The ICE WTI contracts are cash-settled, all electronic, and have good liquidity. They are the same size as the full size NYMEX light crude. The ICE daily volume is running a little under the volume on the NYMEX miNY.

The document's source is certainly reputable: it's the CME. The passages that apparently concerned you are in reference to OTC forex dealers, not globex. In the document IB stands for "introducing broker", not "Interactive Brokers". They're basically saying that you're safer trading...

Is trading the intraday setups you mentioned above part of your regular trading plan, or were they just spontaneous decisions? Did you not execute your actual trading plan from the previous evening because the market didn't trade to your planned entry point, or because you hesitated when it...

Why did you decide to open these positions today?

Hi. I use IB as my broker; can TradeBolt submit OCO orders that are native to TWS rather than simulating them through tracking open positions and canceling unneeded orders once targets or stops are triggered? I would like this feature to help ensure a planned exit if connectivity between...

Whenever you make a forex trade, you're selling one currency and buying another (i.e., if you go long on the USD/JPY pair you're buying dollars and selling yen). You receive the leveraged interest on the currency you buy (the dollar in our example) and pay leveraged interest on the currency you...

Thank you.
