locked option markets

just21 · Jan 9, 2003

Does anyone know of any software that will alert me to locked option markets? e.g the bid on one options exchange is the same as the offer on another exchange.

thanks

Has anyone any idea how much hyperfeed costs?

$5 to $10K a month depending on use, plus users, plus exchange fees.

Plus programmer costs, plus redundant (S&P Commstock) data feed costs (becoming your own consolidator in effect) plus PTP T1 costs...

Ugh

Are you suggesting eSignal to replace Hyperfeed or ILX or Comstock are you for this type of trading?
