Rabo Bank??

This should be a great product, if only it can have deep liquidity. See: http://www.cmegroup.com/trading/fx/hedgeable-fx-index.html What are people's thoughts on this new product?

Does anyone have a reliable high level contact at Variance Futures. I have found it quite difficult reaching them via email or telephone for the last week or so. I even sent a PM to the ET user with user name : VarianceSupport but yet no answer. Is any professional CTA or fund manger...

Glad to hear from any prop traders, CTAs, CPOS, private & experienced traders who trade through Variance as to their experiences.

Apart from Merlin Securities, who else introduces to JPM?? Thanks.

Can anyone point me to an introducing broker for Newedge and/or JPMorgan? I will like to establish a brokerage relationship with these two brokers and feel that due to size constraints it is probably best I go through an introducing broker. Thanks,

Has anyone used the new Redi+ 10.0? How is it - speed, performance, functionality, reliability? I am also particularly concerned with those who use it to trade futures? I also hear that execution & clearing costs at GSEC is quite high. Can someone share info on average commission costs...

Thanks nitro.

Variance swaps are a great vehicle it seems for pure volatility trades. How can one get access to these instruments? Hwo liquid are they? What houses are the major players for these OTC instruments. Why doesn' the CME or EUREX create exchnage traded versions of variance swaps? Thanks

I concur...some good & smart folks on ET.

Thanks NetTecture. Tell me about this new C# interface. Are Bracket & OCO orders native in the API?? Do you use it for futures or stocks? Who do you use as your broker. Thanks.

Hello, I am looking for full documentation on the Rithmic API & Rithmic FIX connections to guide me in building an ATS. I can't find the docs on their website. Can anyone share this with me? I am also curious as to your experiences with Rithmic. Thanks.

I'm also looking into this firm. They are a guaranteed IB for RCG. Their commissions are sweet! Any customers of Variance or RCG should please share their experiences. Thank you.

The seg number is for the futures side of the business. Seg funds always refers to futures. Even at that just $0.5B for a firm that is so ubiquitous and has access to virtually every futures exchange in the planet. I am very surprised.

What really surprises me in this report is that IB has approx. $0.5B in customer segregated assets. Given the ubiquitous nature of IB, I would think they would have at least $2B...

Interesting, insightful analysis.

I'm curious is anybody using the CQG API for their ATS? If so what are your experiences? Could you comment on the CQG API vs IB API?
