Quote from softstrader:

any of you guys use IB unbundled price for ES ? how much per contract to buy or sell?


thanks
More...

yes unbundled.
2.04 per side or 4.08 round-turn (after a certain number of trades - I think it was $2.50 per side at a lower number of trades).

dont feel bad, I didnt pull the trigger at 45.50... now i just have to watch

this setup feels a bit similar to flash crash: big sell-off early followed by a big snap-back rally mid-day which failed. Only difference is we're not seeing a scary down move in the risk crosses (eur/jpy, eur/chf, aud/usd etc) and people rioting in the streets on tv.

Bulls need this thing to get back green soon or the last 3 hours will be dicey. The fact that the VIX hasn't spiked yet is kind of worrying too IMO
