    Why Does IB Still Not Offer ECN Pegged Orders?

    True for Displayed relative orders, but Hidden relative orders do not need deep book analysis. Why don't you implement hidden positive-offset relative orders that roll back based only on the NBBO? Also, according to DAV, "native zero-offset pegged order support on ISLAND and ARCA is under...

    Why Does IB Still Not Offer ECN Pegged Orders?

    1. Yea, you're right, there seems to be a lot of us "uninformed posters" on this thread and on previous threads dating back to 2005, all wanting pegged orders that roll back. We should all just "get a clue" i guess... 2. If pegged orders aren't "extensive in the system", how come they were...

    Why Does IB Still Not Offer ECN Pegged Orders?

    Maybe IB provide superior executions overall, but if we talk about pegged orders in particular, IB's pegged orders that dont roll back definitely give your clients "equal or worse" executions than exchange pegged orders, always, every time. A similar study on execution quality of pegged orders...

    Naked Short Selling

    The way i see it, the grandfather clause was included at that time, not because forcing everyone to cover their naked shorts immediately would have created "volatility" as the SEC claimed at the time, but rather, the SEC did it to give more time to the naked shortsellers (ie rich people by...

    Short selling tick test is history.

    The requirement to "locate stock before you short" should not be applied to daytraders, who close out their positions by the end of the day. As the SEC itself mentions, this rule is meant to protect against naked short-selling (ie shorting shares you have not borrowed and holding for more than...

    Shorting rules in non-US markets

    Frustrated by stringent US short-sale rules for intraday trading, i am looking for other stock markets to trade in which the short-sale rules allow intraday shorting without having to "locate stock". What are the shorting rules on non-US stock markets like Canada, European countries, and Asian...

    Naked Short Selling

    If that's the case, and since the rules are meant to crack down on naked shorting (ie failure to deliver), I think the European system makes a lot more sense in this respect, and I don't see any reason why it hasn't been adopted in the US...does anyone see this differently?

    Naked Short Selling

    If the stock loan dept lies to me, it's their problem, and they are at fault. I can't do their job for them. But, again, my question was: Why doesn't the SEC relieve daytraders who are always flat by the end of the day from the requirement to locate shares before shorting?

    Naked Short Selling

    So why doesn't the SEC allow daytraders to short intraday only without having to locate the stock first? Woudn't this solve a whole bunch of problems for daytraders and thus make the markets more liquid without contributing to the naked short problem?
