    It´s on the sheets, in case one is 0.0055, the second one 0.0003. What I'm worried about are the non standard fees of both cases.....

    Consolidated Audit Trail Costs May Hit HFT Hardest

    Madoff wasn't found earlier because of the delusion surrounding him. I bet even SEC guys had money with him. And even if they found him, they could only use it to earn fast money, and take all out :D. Anyway, HFT doesn't have anything to do with that. Audit trails are needed.

    Ok, as there is a lack of Info about trading costs on this site, and some "strange" stuff I found on a couple of brokers, I would like to write a post about the trading costs (fees) involved on Prop Trading: As far as I know the fees are: 1. Broker commission (depends on volume and style)...

    Strange "fees" stuff

    Reviewing one of my accounts I came to the realization that strange stuff is happening here: 1. Asuroux liq tag V is for ADD liq to EDGA correct? 2. What's that NYSE fee? And why it's discounted in a NSDQ stock? LOL 3. What's that NSDQ fee? Anyone?

    Consolidated Audit Trail Costs May Hit HFT Hardest

    LOL Just imagine billions and billions of quotes/transaction data that has to be stored EVERYDAY (and night) for the rest of the decade. That is a really BIG amount of data. Not talking about the complex that has to be designed for their manipulation and analysis. I bet the gov have more than a...

    What´s wrong with WTS?

    Maybe they can scalp somewhere around there, but it would be hard not to notice it, the fees are public, so anyone can check them.. hmm and make an spreadsheet that calculates them for your trades so you can check if everything is ok. Btw anyone have a list them all?

    Consolidated Audit Trail Costs May Hit HFT Hardest

    There is a lot of other traders (hft, scalpers, rebaters) that will frontrun their orders until it comes to the min. 1c. That limits the profit of everyone, in case of the fractions, the min. spread would be wider and more profitable to trade.

    Consolidated Audit Trail Costs May Hit HFT Hardest

    Don´t remember where, but last month I´ve seen a SEC paper talking about the possibility of going back to fractions for cheap stocks. But overall the situation is slowly changing for good, fees for canceled orders, volker, the audit trail :). We just need one more mini flash crash or failed...

    What´s wrong with WTS?

    Completly agree with previous posts. Just was wondering why is there such a negativevibe around WTS here. Or it´s just that Bright, Echo and the rest are doing a better job cleaning the trolls from the forum? :)

    What´s wrong with WTS?

    Who´s the owner? Olvier Velaez?lol. Cause every broker has those "small errors" (that always are against you, strangely) with the fees. But if one is using a rebate sensitive strategy, its impossible for those "errors" to pass unnoticed .:confused:

    What´s wrong with WTS?

    That´s the problem, no one says nothing concrete. Even with GS there is concrete info about the "bad" and "good" things. One will just end confused being open minded to unfounded comments or without a logic argument.

    What´s wrong with WTS?

    What´s wrong with WTS? I´d been researching a lot about it, found a lot of "negatively neutral" comments, nothing concrete. But the atmosphere seems "bad" overall. The range of comments goes from "they are not serious" to "they are a big trading desk internalizator and frontrunner" and "if...

    Where can I check if my orders are getting right into the market?

    So there is no way to get that info from a 3rd party? :(. I wanted some proves with the email . Because now they will just change back the things and say that everything is ok. I don´t know what they can win. Well I´ve a couple of ideas about it: volume to some MM, if the account is...

    Where can I check if my orders are getting right into the market?

    I´ve 1 account with a prop that have strange behavior lately. Some routes changed from the last time I used it and the stops are executed when the price is quoted and not printed, plus I´m getting strange prints on my dark routes and getting very poor execution when trying the common routes in...
