    Sell options execution

    Hi dmgi-It is likely that those bids/offers were not hidden. Market makers monitor the market for edge to their values and will only trade with you when they see an edge. It happens so fast at times it looks like there was a hidden order.

    NSCC execution fees.. per whole ordered fill or for each partial fill?

    A Brief History of my Strategy Development

    Hi, fairvalue-I would like to share with you a little of my opinion. IMO, backtesting has value in finding what does not work but has less value in finding what does. In my position in Institutional Sales, I'm often sent marketing material from nascent CTAs and Hedge Fund managers. I have...

    how can I fill at bid and ask while not alone?

    I do not know what that means. It is an order type that NASDAQ accepts if your broker offers it.

    how can I fill at bid and ask while not alone?

    I'm not sure if I understand, but if you want to send a buy order that matches the bid or a sell order that matches the ask, try a Primary Peg order. See attached.

    Put Call not in parity

    Sorry, but that is not correct. You need to create a conversion. Buy stock (or future), buy put, sell call on the same line. That net when compared to the strike price, will have an implied interest cost of carry and dividend stream. If that if off, the options are off.

In a very hard to borrow stock, calls appear lower than puts, because the hedge for...
