    Recommended fund accounting software or service?

    My boss deals with them more than I do. I can't recommend anyone, but I can tell you that NAV that was mentioned by truetype is a provider on a number of our clients.

    Recommended fund accounting software or service?

    I would recommend not doing it yourself. Getting the right service providers can make the difference if you get an allocation or not.

    Do all trades go thru market maker?

    Multiple accounts at IB?

    We can do that for domestic accounts through master/sub accounts. The account would be at Wedbush not IB, with Lightspeed as your broker. Cash stays in the master and subs are to track positions and P/L. The master is used for over night margin with the aggregate of the subs.

    Lightspeed does not sponsor traders or have a prop firm. I don't expect that to change. We are investing in technology to provide more choice of software. Bob

    Another option trading strategy

    You can't expect to make money doing this randomly. You have to have the expectation that those options are underpriced for the expected move. That expectation needs to come from a reliable process. Not easy.

    Managing money for Friends and Family / Small accounts - Question?

    Managing money for Friends and Family / Small accounts - Question?

    For this business or any business? I was thankful my parents lent me $30k back in 1985. Gave me the opportunity to support my family for 25 years. Very short sighted to draw lines like that.

    Yes. If you option is ITM at expiration, you get a long or short futures contract.

    Spot FX trading to Understanding Options

    I think it is valid to also go to the CBOE center to learn about options, but option on futures and options on cash settled indexes and equities are a little different. http://www.cboe.com/education/education-main
