Oh and by the way, i want to share my experience in playing EFP. If you are investing your free cash there, you could actually improve the yield if you could find a higher EFP bid in other stocks than the exisitng short EFP position. For example, i sold the MA ($235) may spread at $44.5 on...

http://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/general/poll/poll.php?sid=3860 Please vote for my suggestion on the feautre poll to add min nomial EFP $ amount. By adding the min amount, we can set a number between the max and min to scan for the desired month and filter out dividend paying stocks by...

We can buy t-bills on IB now. I think everyone should be able to get interest on the 1st 10K from now on if they dont like the EFP risk.

Dude! Fri is public holiday in HK and HSI is not open. Your CFD firm ripped you off because u cant possibly beat the spread when the market doesnt move

As for the slides, you can click resource and download it in PDF format and just go along the PDF along with the speaker. At least this is how i am doing it. By the way, thanks for the link, the educational stuff seems really good.

No, the real player works. I am able to download them. The latest version of real player can record streaming video in a lot of format. I think real is easier than camstasia because you dont have to babysit the recording. Once you hit the real download button, it will record and finish...

The agrregate is 150M. Is that enough to cover all IB customers? If bear and man and IB all go bankrupt, do each firm still get 150M or will the money run out? If so, is the first one to go bankrupt gets more protection?

From what i understand about Pattern day trade, u can trade as much as u want and the brokerage wont stop you. After this pattern shows up and the broker notice u violated the rule, then they will suspend your account for a while. So, basically no one is out there to stop u from doing anything...

A seat lease is about $3k right now, and commisions, we are talking 50 cents a contract. I would imagine if a local has good relationship with a broker, which give him trades while the other guy is still bidding at that price and can easily turn around and scratch it, $1K to $2K net income...

Do you or most locals just offer a few ticks higher right after you bought the bid? And what % of your trades result in scratches? With your SnP example, the math is amazing. Given a regular spread in the pit is 30 to 50 cents, if you can do 10 cars and make 50 cents, thats $1250 a day (very...
