Yeah, if I can ever make enough to get to a more comfortable level I will probably move most of my stuff to advantage or somewhere similar.

DDT offers Qtrader. I've been meaning to setup an account there myself specifically for spread trading but the Qtrader rates are quite reasonable.
 
Besides drinking it, what's everyone's thoughts on Coffee (KC)? I took a speculative long at 1.2511 yesterday based on my read of chart technicals (falling wedge, 3-drive-ish, potential recent double bottom, fibs) and somewhat positives in past seasonality. Could have sold on the pop to 1.27 area but decided to keep holding towards a further out target (1.3315).

Might be a completely stupid move given how bad commodities in general (particularly KC and SB) have been crushed as of late, but that's what stops are for. Have a feeling I might be a bit early here though.

The other thing is it's a really bad synthetic. I don't know what they're doing but it doesn't even seem normal for a synthetic spread chart. It's like they're using the bid/ask/mid somehow (rather than last) and coming up with charts that are prone to all sorts of garbage.

Not sure but I guess they simply use, for a given time interval, high of one outright - low of the other as high and low of one - high of the other as low so in any case( last, mid or whatever ) it always looks like that weird range chart.

Yeah, their spread are really bad, when you zoom in, you get bot higher and lower close.
