You have to pay pro market data fees and do not have to pay the NFA fee. What symbols do you trade? If mostly ES and NQ, you can lease or buy the IOM seat. Much less than the full CME.

I think I'm not alone in that I no longer understand your questions. Can you start over and ask a simple question about being short puts.

My response was because you did not ask your question about naked puts. Assignment Risks of Writing ITM options Was too general. In the future if you can provide a better description of your situation you’ll get better responses.

Are you shorting naked calls?

I'm not sure how you define risk with a buy-write from early assignment, as the faster this gets called away, the better for you, as that is max profit. Your risk is the stock dropping. If I'm long an ITM call, I would exercise early if there was a large dividend greater than the value of the...

Bro, current locate rate at Lightspeed is $0.33/Share.

Let’s take a step back. Any security you are short that your clearing broker can’t borrow to make good delivery or can’t replace a borrow they had in place, can subject you to a buy-in with almost no notice. To answer your question now, IMO it is highly likely on a Threshold stock and should be...

I do not understand the relationship between HKD and AMTD, but there seem to be one. AMTD is currently up 3.94 and we have shares available on our third party locate system.

I started at ML after NYU, summer of 1982. I called 90 to 100 per day. The floor manager told me I had to do a lot more. I hated it. After 3 months of a 2 year contract, I asked to be fired!

Do you want to consume ATS prints through an API or view them on your platform? On Realtick, you can do both. On Lightspeed Trader and Sterling, you can only view them. This is Lightspeed Trader. ADFN are the Dark pool prints. I filtered out all but ADFN.

His question was about using NT, which we do not offer, as I responded. I said what other software we do offer, publicly. I have no customers trading that symbol. I would have to ask Wedbush Futures risk if they allow that type of symbol, I know they do not for those with delivery. I'm not going...

He has a pooled asset, why would he want to discuss the details of his business in public? Most members here do not even want to use their real name or picture let alone discuss real detail of a business they want to run. He is welcome to ask questions here. Maybe you should change your member...

Good morning Ironplates - I've been told by Wedbush Futures, our FCM, that we can't enable NT because NT does not allow other Introducing Brokers to offer it. In addition to selling, you the software, they wish to be your broker and collect commissions. If you are open to CQG, TT, CTS T4...
