as for pennying, i wasn't talking about price improvement - i'm referring to specialists that either 1)move their bid ahead of yours (I don't mind them pegging my bid, since I was there first and am entitled to get filled first); 2)keep yanking out the offer when 100sh hits it or by cancelling...
"...I'm deeply shocked by worldcom (pronouncing it like he's never heard of it before)....we're going to hold people accountable....there will be a full investigation..." YADA YADA YADA
I'm just waiting for a reporter to ask him where he's been hiding Dick from the whole enron investigation...
uhh....averaging into a position is one way to look at your system; market making is another way.
what you are proposing to do with the e-mini is the same thing that naz MM's do with stocks. buying and selling .05 up or down.
Actually, this really isn't such a biggie (I'm referring to the displaying 100sh rule). MM's are free to use ISLD or any other ECN, and there they can use a reserve size of 100sh. At first I thought the change was pretty lame, but its only fair for them to do it if we can, too.
My understanding of this is that if you aren't short thru the ex-div date, you don't have to pay - is this right?
Also, if that is true, can someone give a web site that gives quick access to these dates?
Thanks!
anyone noticed that LSPD seems to cater to the last of the momentum traders??
personally i find that whoever uses LSPD in some of the naz stocks i trade to be extremely annoying, but i have a bias against pegged orders, and that seems to be the only order type LSPD traders seem to use...
Thanks. I especially like the pic of the girl on their website. :D Any way she comes with the chair, or maybe on it???
Do you find that this chair helped your neck be comfortable, or was adjusting your monitor height more impt?
it sucks. it's an "invisible auction."
it lets institutions see your order flow and gives them a chance to take the trade before ECNs see the order.
so they get to see your hand without showing theirs.
primex is a black hole for MMs to hide inside and buy/sell without disclosing their...
...let's post slightly modified versions of their names to protect the innocent from morons like pussy (remember that old IB post from that french guy claiming IB called him up and harassed him for a margin call) who will go on here and make up stories about reps if they know what the correct...
Howdy all,
I'm having an increasing problem with my neck getting really stiff, and sometimes having neck spasms if I look upwards too much. What has helped me the most so far is switching from a standard computer chair to this chair...
i had datek a while back, maybe 2 years now. back then they had the same server problems, and back then they'd say try investmenta or b....if they're getting ten bucks a trade and most of their clients do 100sh or less per trade, you'd think they'd shell out a few hundred grand for some more...
my level2 is out, plus i'm missing chunks of one minute bars and time and sales, using QC feed thru stock watch pro.
tried different server farms....no luck
is it just my end or is it a QC problem???
