The LLC mgmt co manages the LLC fund.

I would agree with the earlier statements about potential losses assuming we are talking about diversified indexes. I believe that some seasonal ag products (coffee, corn, etc...) could see the out month cheaper than the front month.

In this example, are we talking about a futures contract that you went long at 1230 or a futures options contract (a 1230 call)?

I did finally get it all together. Things are going well and I've been up and running for a couple of years now.

You would think having taken the Nikkei to 40,000 and back that the technology would be in place to support volume and volatility of that level. Are they really seeing all time high levels of throughput over there?

Looks like it's working 100% on mine now as well.

My existing GTC orders from yesterday are not even active. The market has already moved past two of my ER2 orders and several others would be NBBO, but are not displayed. This does not appear to be an exchange issue as futures volume is heavy and futures options appear to be transacting as...

I saw a note last night about futures options being down. Apparently they are still down this AM. I tried two separate accounts, logged in and out several times. Quotes are fine and TWS status is green but changing orders only results in a light blue status and check margin returns nothing...

I want to know what "expunged" really means. I always thought it meant that it never happened. If that was the case, why do you have to tell people about it? What's the point of getting anything expunged if you still have to deal with it down the road?

From Forbes.com last week: "There are some fully electronic trading firms looking to hedge their bets on the demise of the floor-trading system. Interactive Brokers, one of the largest options trading firms, will begin offering clients access to a pit trader at the CME and the Chicago Board...

for sale for 99 cents? and they went belly up after reading them? Sounds like the price is about right.

I love this place.:D

Congratulations Baron!

He just made that up. IB does not trade against retail order flow.

Don, Post the sheet, or a sample that's similar and I'll see what I can come with using a straight formulas. I prefer them over VBA or macros because they are cleaner. Some things require VBA, but you'd be surprised what formulas will do. I didn't respond earlier because I thought someone...

There are specific rules for busts, right? How much discretion do the exchanges really have? I have only dealt with CME (thru IB) on busts and they have been great about it. One of my busts was when the market was 2.50 - 3.00 and I entered an order for $8 (should have been a call but I...

It's hard to believe some of the comments on this thread. I think IB could be inserting cash on an hourly basis in some of your accounts and you'd still be bitching. Busts are essential to a functioning, dependable market. It's one thing if you are trading large baskets of stock, but for...

Maybe they declared a dividend? Tis that time of the year.

Patience young grasshopper.

I've been trading for 20 years. I see a lot of guys like Cheese on this board. Guys who like the previous poster said, like to make generalizations about who is/isn't here and the way things need to be for the trading world to be squared away. In a way I find his sort of post funny, but...
