Bloomberg looks like PC-DOS

AAAintheBeltway, I’m very sorry for the issues you had when we stopped supporting WIN XP. Windows announced that they would no longer support and have security updates for WIN XP. With that decision, we had to update all our code to be compatible with the newer 32 bit and 64 bit OS. I’m also...

I agree, just not a big fan of that word.

I wish they offerered both sizes.

Internally, they charge clearing and execution. If you transact electronically, the execution fee is for globex. Yes, they get both. On some schedules they have combined them to make it easier to understand.

Effective start of trading date on Monday, December 5, 2016, the price multiplier for all Russell Index futures and option contracts will change to $50 per index point, from the current $100 multiplier. This means that at the new $50 multiplier, the notional value of a futures contract that has...

The price you choose for your stop makes sense to you and might make sense to 100 other traders. Each one of those 100 trades got into their positions at different times and and at different prices, but if they all try to get out at the same time, that can create a bad situation.

That's cause I'm old!

FSU, I don't ever disagree with you, except now.

No legging risk.

Are you asking if the CME charges a lower clearing fee?

We offer hosting at our data center for both FIX users at our gateway or for using the Lightspeed Trader software with the API. Contact me directly for more info.

I have already answered that for you. It is per subscriber. The subscriber is the account owner not each user.

Big_Kev, What don't you like about Option City? I was an equity option MM and used Actant Quote. I have a friend that uses them for options on futures. They use scripting to develop your strategy which makes it very easy to customize. I last used it in 2010 myself. http://www.actant.com/ Bob

What broker do you use now for Sterling? Don't worry about the API non-display fees until your broker contacts you. They will give you a chance to drop the API. I have estimates of fees but don't want to post on ET. I can email you them directly.

I understand what your are saying. I'm registered with the NFA. I have clients that lease memberships. I have friends that are high volume MM on the CME. I have spoke to guys at futures trading groups that do massive volume. Not one custodies their funds and positions at the CME, they all do...

Yes, there are exchange traded spreads.

Those were the good old days.

Delayed MD is anything 15 min or more. Sterling Trader offers a version with an API where no MD is feeding the API, so not non-display. You either get your MD from another source or don't require it.

In this example, WTS would have one MD account at each data provider and get charged for one non-display charge. How they pass that along to their partners is up to them
