With IB that ends up being $.001 a share (per side).

So the commish on the 1k share QQQ will still be $1?

If so, that rules...buh-bye AMEX!

(those AMEX bastards must be PO'd about this - i'd be willing to bet they'll try and stop it)

FINALLY a use for the SSF's...

I STILL want the SOX futures, though...maybe they'll wake the ^%$%$#@ up and start that, too...but i doubt it.

I would imagine, doesn't take any more effort (from anyone: broker, exchange, etc) considering they will trade on the same platform.

Am I missing something?

Why would you want to trade an SSF on Q's when a very liquid contract on the Naz 100 already exists.

Why not just trade NQ? You can get better tax treatment, more leverage and deep liquidity?
