    Execution credit

    Hello, New to eurex here. I noticed IB is using a 0.5 EUR cancellation fee for a 2.5 EUR execution credit on eurex? Is it proper to IB? Can I get those rebates with an other broker? I didn't find anything on eurex website. Thanks a lot.

    Iceberg (Hidden Size) Orders

    Last question related to icebergs: If at bid/ask there is only a displayed size of an iceberg( no other orders ) and a marketable order comes in for more than the displayed size, does it "goes through"and hit the second bid/ask before the new displayed size is refreshed? Thanks a lot.

    Iceberg (Hidden Size) Orders

    That's right. Are you sure that you don't lose priority between each refresh? If that's the case, I may try some new things this week...

    Are You a Profitable Trader?

    Just reading how the OP formulated the question, you can see that he has a tendancy to focus on gains and negate his losses...Yeah we have to have to take losses into account to know if we are profitable, that's pretty much incredible...LOL.

    Front Running, Flash Orders, or Blackbox/Algorithmic Manipulation?

    I am trying to understand what you are saying? To keep things simply I have a dozen traders here in Nassau. We decide to play the futures today. We place working orders, they are submitted and excepted by the broker and so on. Are you saying the likes of GS have / has a right, to bump me...

    Front Running, Flash Orders, or Blackbox/Algorithmic Manipulation?

    Yes it is Neke, but I have never seen it in any futures market and I'm fairly confident it doesn't happen. As fast as they get their quotes and react, it is still after your execution is done for a marketable order and after your order is submitted for a non marketable one.

    Front Running, Flash Orders, or Blackbox/Algorithmic Manipulation?

    I'm talking about non marketable limit orders and algos improving bid/ask... Speaking of marketable orders, you will always get filled removing sizes. If the size goes away, it's simply that your order was submitted after the size was cancelled...

    Front Running, Flash Orders, or Blackbox/Algorithmic Manipulation?

    This sentence alone shows how little you know about how orders are matched on Globex. Where were you in the queue? How do you know you should have been filled? I scalp different globex instruments day in day out and I can tell you I get the fills I' m supposed to get when joining bid/asks...

    Broker Could Steal Your Strategy???

    Don't worry if you aren't making at least 7 figures. They don't need to trade to make money.

    Best and worst influences on my P&L over the last 10 years

    I agree that surfing and especially posting is detrimental to P§L but those market screens are too damn boring to watch for 8 hours without distraction.

    Front Running, Flash Orders, or Blackbox/Algorithmic Manipulation?

    ??? CL futures are on Globex. I have never seen anything suspicious on Globex. Never heard of ask levels disappearing when trying to hit it, or people at bid/ask getting "pennied" milliseconds before a market order comes in...Of course there are algos submitting bids/asks for a very short...

    my name is george and i am a loser

    Once you have resolved your discipline/psychology issues, you will be able to start learning the game/finding edges...It usually takes several years...Just think about it.

    Nice post, Black Diamond. We are getting deeper.

    Front Running, Flash Orders, or Blackbox/Algorithmic Manipulation?

    Thanks Black Diamond, Apparently I misunderstood the problem. I agree with you on both complaints. However, the problem related to real traders losing priority in the queue seems to be less serious than the issue of real traders frontrunned by HFT on NASDAQ. I would be totally pissed to...
