What do you like about DR?

Thank you, I must be sleeping.

Thanks, I finally figured out what these guys are talking about.

The first two are the same, the third is legally the same but separate, a branch office. I am not affiliated with them, so I could be wrong, but that is my understanding.

Are you saying they changed the multiplier or abandoned the contract? I seem to remember it started in October, looked @ it for a while but no volume. Are we talking about the same thing?

Scalping.

You got it.

Arbing those butterflies might work, never tried that, but everything we make money on no one has ever heard of or popular belief is it can not be done. The biggest problem is identifying and hitting the leg(s) that make the trade work, and hitting them before they go away and then putting...

You could use GL, we quit using it though, on a POP, but you need to research the exact route your clearing firm takes. The quotes are another matter, no matter what GL tells you, they do not have the fastest quotes. There are several guys arbing in the pits, with a GL terminal and outside...

Just checking if we were doing something wrong.

We don't trade there anymore however, we used to have 5 accounts up @ the same time and sometimes they would all go out at once, sometimes different ones independent of each other. The frequency was more like everyday. The longest outage was hours, not minutes. I have a lot of friends...

Is overtrading more than 1,000 fills a day?

I don't think the issue is maintenance outages, the problem used to be the "purple screen of death". That happened a lot more frequently than every couple weeks. In addition you have the Globex outages, when everyone is down.

IB is probably your best bet, if your total volume increases that would no longer be my opinion.

Yes you are. The LLC is a "customer account" @ the B/D.

How many a day?

The edge is in the routing and connection speed, it may seem trivial but quotes on GL are slower than other sources, and how you connect makes the difference in getting filled or missing/chasing the trade.

No system can give you advance warning. I think there are better choices, however they are still better than most. It really depends on the size and frequency of your trades.

This is a job?
