Crappy as usual. It was good for a while when it was shut down, but it is back up now unfortunately (that was with IB on listed stocks). Actually, it doesn't seem to be crossing any quotes right now, so that is better than usual.

Thanks for the post hii. I still can't short KLAC. Maybe I will have to look at the SSF.

Yeah, and quotes were good. Then I noticed some crossed quotes and - sure enough - a bulletin saying that ARCA was available popped up a few seconds later. What a piece of junk.

IB won't let me short KLAC this morning. Is anyone else having trouble? IB had problems with this a few months ago, and I have a feeling that it is their problem, not a shortage of KLAC to borrow. Has anyone else shorted it?

Thanks Cheeks, I just tried it on my other machine, and it is fine. I guess it is my problem. Hopefully a reboot will fix things.

Now I am disconnected. Anyone else?

My TWS keeps freezing for several seconds and then updating again. Is anyone else having trouble, or is it me? Thanks.

From what I have seen, they aren't sorted out yet. It is bad.

I think this slow response is being used to manipulate the prices - kind of like SOES in the old days. I don't know if this is ARCA's intention or not, but it makes it worse than useless. I wish it would just go away.

I will second that - it would be nice to get rid of their "quotes" too.

ARCA. Causing me trouble again today as usual. I think I have received ONE truly instant fill on ARCA! Let's hope it dies an ugly death soon - but I doubt it.

Thanks for the links and information.

If your rates are the best, why don't you post them on your web site? I clicked on the link in your signature, and there was no information about rates.

Thanks for the posts, I am going to study this some more.

I have a 15" and a 18" with no dead pixels. I have a 2 1/2 year old laptop that has one pixel that is always green as of about two months ago. Do most warrantees cover dead pixels, or is a certain number considered acceptable?

I know nothing about trading bonds. Can anyone tell me if it would feasible to trade the spread between the two year, five year, and ten year treasury notes/bonds (I don't even remember what the difference is). I have noticed that the spread between the different terms seems to vary a little...

I had some trouble logging on to TWS this morning, and now I keep disconnecting and logging back on - several times this morning. Is anyone else having trouble, or is it on my side? Thanks for replies.

This is what I would really like to see IB do. I had trouble with ARCA again today. If it doesn't improve soon, I may have to stop using SMART. That would be a shame, because I really like SMART. I only got five fills through ARCA today, but they interfered with a lot of my orders. Don't...

YES. Way too much trouble with ARCA.

I think you are correct. I wonder is this is a software issue with some brokers/platforms. I know uptick doesn't apply to NAS post/pre-market, and I think it is the same for NYSE.
