good points alan i've noticed this as well, for instance offering inside the spread on island, caes will almost always instantaneously duplicate my offer. i tried to get smart once and see if this could be used to get better fills, i bid inside the spread on island, then hit the ditto bid...

makes sense. thx

ic, thanks for the explanation i had just assumed maybe it was timber because of the zero time delay from when i hit the key. the mm update hits the mkt at the exact same time i do. makes no diff either way, i was just considering who could have such an immediate response. it's really...

I've wondered, does Timber Hill make markets in zg and zi futures? in the middle of the night when i join or improve the spread, the entire chain of months will frequently update instantaneously when i transmit, reacting to my bid or offer simultaneously with my order hitting the mkt. just...

i didn't see that in the original article. good to see the article (and policy) have changed since this afternoon

http://www.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/meast/07/18/lebanon.evacuation/index.html i find this sickening. just shameless with over 300B handed largely to contractors in this war. similar to wounded soldiers buying their meals in the hospital. what do we have to do, back a humanitarian fund with HAL...

I know at least on tradestation, the new WS contract requires the full nymex entitlement

this chronic problem with QM via Tradestation has become very annoying. i feel sorry for anyone trying to trade it only with TS data , beware, your 'real-time' quote could literally be 10 mins old in fast markets

btw pls correct me if i'm missing something, i'm new at the bills. everything about it seemed clear and straight forward except for the account rows in the TS platform where it looks like the non-marginable 5% of the bills is absent from sec on deposit and real-time acct eq.

I'm not sure I understand the issue with overnights unless you mean converting an entire account to bills leaving no wiggle room. If there's no cash in the account than any trading losses result in liquidation (breaking) of the bills. I don't know what the exact transaction costs are in...

I purchased tbills in the TS account. I'm confused about the accounting though and was hoping someone else who's done this can corroborate my experience Where does the 5% non-marginable portion of the bills get accounted for? It appears to come out of 'securities on deposit' and thus...

i can't remember the source, but i thought i read recently that it's actually not illegal to melt these down. i checked a sample of my own coin jar just out of curiosity and was surprised to find at least 25% pre 82

the federal reserve system is working against ordinary americans. isn't this already well in progress? as long as the middle class aren't literally liquidated along with their assets by the current system, in congress they would have the direct power to elect new representation in their...

day to day in these monetized markets, almost every move up in equity is accompanied by (caused by?) a drop in the dollar. in a sense you're already shorting the dollar when you buy anything with them. nybot dxy futures aren't liquid, but gold is a great monetary/hedging tool if you...
