no need for a reminder,i was there at that time. made some money on that day. not much

i'm not a pro,but i can make\code ATS probably in less than a day. the big question -will it be profitable? :D on positive note-hey! i'm happy for you(as long as you are not trading same s** on front of me)! :)

FBI should investigate (yeah-deep cavity search) SEC,not HFT. cause SEC is the cause and HFT is a simply consequence\result of their 'regulations'

i think it perform very well for Mr Peterffy..but due to exact same problem-complexity of the current markets, groups of 'special interests' and so on ..all this make it really difficult to track IB's performance,but if you trade a lot of stocks and try to analyze next tick after your fill at...

it won't,if you place very few trades on super liquid stocks,but it will ,even if you trade fairly often. in many case you will find yourself chasing the price. that's on individual level,but if you watched 60 min-they are saying same exact thing about institutions(who buy and sell large...

Scat..the most important of all priorities in execution is a price. then size then time of your order. if you place an order to buy at 100 or whatever price-you might see 99% of the time(specially ,if you right about certain price level and price is about to go up) that your 100 shares lot...

[BTW, it looks as if Bloomberg and the other financial shows will be all over the topic;] shows all over is good. took them only 5-10 years to figure this one out.. but why not the SEC?

and who is threatening who..

but wait...there is more.. there is conversation going on right now at yahoo's TWSAPI group about 2 sec delay in quotes..ah..that brings some memories on another question that was never been answered by IB-why IB's clock in TWS are off by 2 sec? i'm not buying their famous answer\argument-my PC...

and one more screenshoot from yahoo(high 50.07):

one more from today's daily chart(note high is based on 5 shares trade at 50.88:

for those who is skeptical about my phrase that IB is making the s** up. here is an example for you : ECPG highs\lows at 2/19/2014. once again-i can,but not interested to create a software,that would track all this in real time or EOD,but i firmly believe that what IB is doing -wrong. and it's...

the REAL question is-why everything in US have to be so complex to the point that no one understand it? i see similarities of current market micro structure with lets say-US tax code. 80K pages and you need a pro,to guide you thru it.why can't go back to the roots and trade on 2 exchanges, and...

it was. is you paid attention,Katsuyama used exactly same thing for his example as Haim on 24th min. ticket venue

if i understand things correctly-somehow they are been able to identify those flashers and basically ban them,by sending their orders thru very long loop, the other thing is that they been able to convince big guys(pension plans and such) to trade at their exchange(again-according to them). most...

imo-the most disappointing thing in this 60 min episode is that SEC wasn't mentioned. not even ONCE. the gvt agency,who suppose to be a watchdog ,protecting and regulating all this mess. nope..

majority of ET still believe HFT is good and provide liquidity. i'm (along with Stock777) saying same thing as this Lewis guy for years, and i believe SEC can stop this nonsense in 1 day,but they choose not to. cause they owned by WS

http://www.moldova.org/us-provides-10-million-moldovas-border-security-issues/ just another example of pissing taxpayers money away..

I do have the solution. But I'm interested to find out current " industry standard " of high/ lows and their qualifiers. Because I believe that IB just making the s***up. And doing that for years. Funny, but it the first time I see someone, who asking same question. The question, I've been...

i have discussion with their CS for MONTHS(if not years) about it. still have no straight,firm answer. the reason for those discrepancies(high\low in particular) on stocks is because IB is using odd lot trades for high and low on any time frame bars and as a daily high\low. yes,some 5 shares...
