Wow, Why not just use another broker, like Lightspeed. :D Email me if you want to talk Monday. Yes, we can open accounts from Israel in USD to trade US listed stocks and options.

May I ask what you want to use it for? If you need their API, they require funding og $500,000.

You might want another drink next week. :D

No idea. Waiting for regulators to approve. Why? Nothing will change much for a while expect some of the Lime and futures operations will be with us. Bob

IMO, the formula was not meant to do that, but others might have more knowledge. The formula was meant to only use the days the market is open. About 252.

What is O/N? Overnight?

Good luck to you. Feel free to contact me directly if I can help in anyway

I’ve been told that spike in VX future’s was related to the closing of that etf XIV. That the manager in prep to close sent an order to buy 260,000 VIX future’s at the market. Can anyone confirm this?

Saltynuts, I have a few things to point out, How do you know the call trade was initiated by the buyer and not a seller? How do you know it was not tied to a trade in the futures or a roll from another month? The June calls are priced vs the June VX Future, not the VIX cash. The JUNE Future...

I have received a few calls on these products. When trying to place the prospective client, I have been told many times that the FCM often do not allow access to these unless the client has a large balance sheet or is a hedger.

Have you compared the VWAP vs the opening auction vs the closing auction to see if it is worth the time? You have to make the assumption you would not change the open or close, or they would change very little.

Doing better than the VWAP, I have no Idea. I expect that requires a broker on the the trading floor of the NYSE where they get a match on ever trade and you don't have to wait your turn on the book. On stocks like you described, I'd rather work the order, accept the open or close or take my...

Not enough transactions you can participate on at every price level. Volatility is not the issue. Wide spread spreads and low volume. If AAPL goes nut and trades in a 5% range on 10mm shares, it is possible to get close to the VWAP as you can send child orders all day that will get filled. A...

Yes, with illiquid, low volume symbols with wide spreads. Getting the VWAP is unlikely,

This is not within my expertise and I don't have enough information to place a value. To pay even 20X, I would need a product that can't be copied with a very high growth rate. I'd even question 10X without protection and growth.

From just that information, no. 40X profits? How do you get your money back unless there is information we don't have.

They won’t promote it as it hits their bottom line.

They will take other maturities. I don't know when the margin drops below 95%.

They will buy whatever bill you want but with the $50 fee, I recommend the 1 year.

All I can tell you is I send in the request to buy $250,000 face value 1 year T-Bills. Wedbush charges $50/order. They come back with the discounted rate that the desk bought it for. Wedbush Futures keeps the T-Bill at cost on the books and it is margined at 95%.
