Yeah, I actually had my software vendor add ROBB today but it's not working. I'll update this thread with the results once I test it. Thanks dude.

But do you still get the $0.0014 rebate? According to BATS, you don't get the rebate passed through: "TRIM orders executed at low-priced venues: no charge" http://www.batstrading.com/FeeSchedule/

How do you hit BX via BYX?

Does anyone know which of the inverse ECNs -- NSDQBX, BYX, and EDGA -- offers the fastest routing strategy which sweeps all three inverse ECNs with a single order? I'm getting crushed by black boxes who kill their orders a millisecond before mine hit so speed is crucial here. Thanks for any help...

I wouldn't worry about Penson guys. They are "one of the biggest" clearing firms out there. "So many brokers" use them. They're simply "too big to fail," kind of like Lehman and Bear Stearns. :D

I think I have the perfect candidate for you: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=219566

Why are brand new spammers repeatedly permitted to sign up and spam these forums? This forum is really starting to become one big infomercial, it's kinda trashy. Baron really needs to step up his game.

Why do people post questions like these on a public forum? Why not just call or e-mail IB? I don't get it...

What firm do you trade with if you don't mind me asking?

Just curious, when figuring out the profit percentage do you use your account equity or your day trading buying power?

+$13,032.15 I had another stellar day today. Really liking the way C has been moving lately as we get closer to the RS.

Agreed. You have to wait another couple weeks for Cramer to change his view yet again and say the banks, especially the regionals, are a screaming buy. :D

The funny thing is I think you're right on that first part: a lot of those traders who flip C are part of prop shops or prop groups where their deposit could be $4,000 or even less in some cases since they are not bound by the PDT rule. With this style of trading, you actually don't want a...

That is very true. A $1 move doesn't mean much if the stock making the move is $235. That represents only a 0.0042553191489362% move in the stock which isn't that far away from a 1 cent move in C resulting in a 0.0022222222222222% move. :D

A 7 cent range with huge liquidity and volume is a scalper's dream. Scalpers are liquidity providers and straddle the bid/offer all day long. If C trades 250,000,000 shares in a day, that is a lot of pennies to be made without the stock even needing to go up or down for a trader to profit...

I actually know somebody who has been day trading CSCO common stock for over a decade and making a good living off of it too. While I don't personally trade it, I presume one could have made a killing shorting it in the morning and covering it in the afternoon for the past year or so. :D

Sorry, but I have to disagree with you there too. While he may have overestimated the capabilities of most non-direct access online retail brokers, I still believe he's an active scalper and a decent one at that. I base that opinion on his other posts and the P&L screenshots he submits from time...

The OP asked for a list of stocks that have tight spreads and high volume. He did not ask for volatile stocks, illiquid stocks, stocks that other members on this site trade or those symbols that are traded using a different technique or method. I provided him with a list of stocks that offer...

I have no idea where it's going but I hope in the imminent future it heads to 8-$10 so that it can become the next C...
