    Today, I was trading a stock when suddenly the offer was raised by about 25 cents. Usually I will try to short the stock a the high print. So I send in one order for 400 shares to sell 1 cent below the offer. A few minutes later, I send in another 400 share sell order 5 cents below the offer...

    I just wrote to NYSE Re: Direct+ rule change

    This direct + rule change will really hurt me if it goes through. Since I only scalp listed stocks, this rule change along with all the other possible order execution changes, may force me into switching to the NASDAQ. BUt I'd rather not. So.. I just sent a email to the NYSE via their...

    NYSE liquidity quote/effects on price improvement?

    I can't believe this thread isn't huge, I guess there aren't as many listed scalpers out there as I think. I started noticing this in the Broker stocks a week and a half ago, they are definately harder to trade now. I heard a rumor back then, that it was new specialist software that tracks...

Any...

    SEC to Nearly Double Equity Transaction Fee

    I just want to be super clear on this fee increase. When I trade GS, the Sec fee adds about .10 of a cent to the cost of the trade on one side. So...Now it will add about .20 of a cent? Is that right? Wow, that really will have an impact.

    this market

    Has anyone noticed lately that NYSE stocks are trading differently in the past few weeks or so? The bid and ask are moving much more quickly and they are moving together. It makes it impossible to try to catch a move in a stock. the bid ask will be 2 cents apart and with 30 on each side, then...
