games with the E-mini

no reason to be upset.
here is a really strange thing:

about 3 yrs. ago i saw a really heavy thing in the DAX.
the contract is (was) about 2.5 times the MiniSP in weight,
and some guy or firm tried to play with two orders:
buy 9999 contract, sell 9999 contracts (you cannot enter
more via an EUREX terminal), with about 3 points in "spread".

i think what these guys tried was to lock the futures market
- and therefore the cash along - in a tight range, while being
the market maker and earning the spread.

he played for some minutes, never came back.

i remember this one well...

regards

I bet he is doing it for fun. Just to see if it does anything... I know i've done it before. :D Also, he may have been showing a huge offer but was slowly accumulating on the buy side, bidding it up till it hit a certain price, then wham he lets momentum players take him out.

Metoox, how much depth does realtick show?

I don't think so, it looked like an arb to me.
