    Your software is "different"....it shows 3 separate trades at 2167.25 for instance instead of 1 trade for 3 contracts. I don't quite "get it". Also, I see red, purple, and green arrows......don't understand the meaning....

    The old ones were junk...they all had an engine flaw in them. The newer models (after 2012) are like computers-on-wheels....the firmware is nothing short of phenomenal....including artificial intelligence just to get the tire pressure managed correctly. Add to that a programmable PDK...

    This has got to go down as the dumbest post in ET dot come history. My goodness, this is so SIMPLE: Nav got caught spoofing...in the emini futures market....on the CME Group exchange. He did it with really sophisticated software that he designed. Period. They warned him, he continued to do...
