When I'm trading exotic currencies I'm specifically looking for NDF's or some sort of big boy capital market restrictions in spot..so KRW definitely my thing. MXN not so much X0 Argentinian Futures Exchange looks nice, I'm going to look into it. Although I don't have any contacts there and...

I think the reason for our misunderstanding is that you asume that I'm doing things like this the first time...

No. If you told me you did, I would try to build one for myself. What would be in for you to proof your work? Right, nothing but a bunch of copy cats. @jtrader33 showed you that it is not impossible to arb as a retailer. Oanda has been gamed a long time ago by an ET user, too. EUR/USD forwards...

Ok. So I'm not quite sure if you really don't understand it from an intellectual point of view or if you just want to split hairs here in order to start and win a pissing contest. Just because YOU cannot do it, does not mean nobody can't. There is a horde of retail traders especially in...

What I try to explain is the fact that markets are not moved by math, models, or no arb criteria. It's driven by inventory constraints of all participants. This leads to severe mispricings that can be visible for everyone and really persistent. If you know how to price assets you have a ton of...

Dude pls...what does "let's say" imply to you? I wanted to make point so I had to overstate...I think that was clear to see for anyone. If I used a more realistic example like low float pump&dumps, noone would have gotten it

I want to add one last thing here, which should spark up a lightbulb above some guys heads: The market price is a function of all participants inventory NOT of no-arbitrage criteria or some mathematical function. The bigger a market participant, the more influence his inventory has on the price...

Here I would say: it depends. For example, look at microcap stocks like pink sheets or the canadian miners. A market maker there has so called mandates. Since there isn't really a correlated asset for these stocks where he can hedge his inventory, the MM receives a fixed sum between 50k and...

Designated MMs have to fulfill their quoting obligations, so they have to post orders. When they get hit, its a fill. No auctioning

No. You need to understand that MM's do not have unlimited money. Therefore they cannot just quote the "right" price over and over when they get hit. Once they are out of margin, what are they gonna do? As a MM you want do put your quotes where there is two sided flow. This basically means you...

Pricing is 10% math and 90% inventory control. Once the MM gets hit by an order, he hedges and shifts his quotes. One sided flow is usually hedged by positions that are +theta so that the only job is just hanging on to your inventory without blowing up. MM position is usually short ATM and long...

this guy knows the game

No, people don't misunderstand. People want to make money on a consistent basis. They run businesses, they need to pay rent and salaries and their mortages. Name a business that's like " Well, I have no idea when sales is coming and I don't know how much it's gonna be, but I somehow calculated...

1. ) condors or strips out of packs and bundles. Eurodollar packs already have four legs 2. ) "RVassets is a London based FinTech that focuses on algorithms for the pricing & execution of listed options"

No, that is not correct. CME Direct enables you to access lit markets (Globex) and it's OTC clearing facility (Clearport) with one software. No retail trader will ever use Clearport since no institute will ever blocktrade with a retailer. You don't need it. Continue using Sierra Chart

ARE YOU GUYS FUCKING KIDDING ME??? FX trades in ratios....how would ratios go negative when numerator and denominator are both positive? Sometimes, guys, you should ask yourself if another hobby wasn't better for you

math teachers please calm down...he just had a moment

Connects to clearport and globex. It's for prosfessionals, not the average Joe EMini gambler.

Your trade did not print in time because it did not go to market. It got matched internally at some of the market makers. https://www.tdameritrade.com/retail-en_us/resources/pdf/AMTD2054.pdf This is were your orders go to. If you really think TDA sends your orders to an exchange you are...

Alright @Aquarians, calm down, dude :) First of all: How liquid is the product? Is it listed, is it traded OTC, which jurisdiction? Is there a minimum capital requirement to trade it and do you need an ISDA to trade it? How much is the data and where do you get it from? OR do you mean YOU...
