    Getting orders filled on spreads

    mportnoy-I'm happy to jump on a call one day and better understand the issues you are having. I was an AMEX MM for 25 years. I'm not getting any complaints from my active traders getting fills in SPX or any other active symbol. The detail I would need to figure out why you are, would be too...

    Getting orders filled on spreads

    How about a real example from last week? Stock symbol? Where was it trading? What was the option spread? What was the NBBO and midpoint at the time? What limit did you enter and at what time of day?

    Introduction

    Welcome to the forum. I live in NY but had family living in Gaithersburg, MD when it was being built. Really nice place to bring up a family and close the DC. What broker and software do you currently use to access the CME?

    Oil and Gas Supply/Demand

    The end-user of the by-products of crude oil have no demand for "crude oil" because it is no more useful than raw plastic is to consumers that need plastic bags. The demand comes from refiners that breakdown the crude into usable products. Their demand comes from the refiners that create useable...

    does hidden order that provides liquidity receives rebates from exchange?

    So you do not like the term "predict", but you have the assumption that stocks fall faster than they go up and these stocks falling, the next time frame is down? You are predicting the next move is down and not up, no? I do not expect a response. It is clear you are happy with your current...

    lightninboy-(I like your member name) I'm not a chartist. I just look at them as a reference. We offer a number of platforms. I've been told that Lightspeed Trader charts are good. Sterling Trader Pro charts have more studies and Realtick is our best offering. This is only with regard to charting.

    does hidden order that provides liquidity receives rebates from exchange?

    If you choose our per trade rate and offer liquidity on NASDAQ, ARCA or EDGX, and enter larger orders, you can get paid to trade with us. E.G. Buy 5000 XYZ on ARCA, add liquidity, cost of $4.50, then you get a $10 rebate for a net credit of $5.50. 2250 shares would be zero net commissions if you...

    Portfolio margin, Canada

    The brief answer is the entity would require a real residence or place of business outside of Canada and even that would be subject to a compliance review.

    A calc of the current Ivol for that option only. That screenshot was from Lightspeed Trader but LVX shows Historical Volatility on charts and we offer that to IB clients with Lightspeed/Lime as your broker. https://www.lightspeed.com/trading-platforms/livevol-x/

    Does NBBO should be same on different exchanges or they do differ per exchange?

    I'm not sure how to respond to that. So what would they suggest a better term would be for the best bid/best ask for the 16 exchanges that you can't trade through? Here is a NASDAQ Trader Document that refers to the Option NBBO 23 times...

    Does NBBO should be same on different exchanges or they do differ per exchange?

    NBBO is the National Best Bid Offer, typically the aggregate of the 16 options exchanges. You would have to ask IB if that is what it represents on their Option Level 2.

    Is it possible to short shares without borrow available with Interactive Brokers?

    You are confusing a locate with a borrow. Reg-SHO requires any stock not on the ETB list will require a locate to enter a short order. If you do not hold this overnight, there is no borrow. If you hold any hard to borrow stock overnight and your clearing broker can't borrow that stock, you are...
