UK Scalpers

Quote from Everest:

I don't use the x trader with gni, but I imagine it would - best to check with the horse !

So does your day begin @ 8 am and finish some 13 hours later with the U.S close .... I'm sure I left the city's trading desks for more freedom than this !

Sometimes earlier if i trade the bund open - but yes it can go on a bit - but i normally knock off between 10 and 1 unless it's hectic.

sounds familiar, and also from 5-7 pm for the US munchy session, May well be time for me to pull the golf clubs outta the cupboard for those summer doldrums.

A large "suisse" one, but then I've spent some time at most of the I.houses one time or another.
 
OK, now that was a fairly indecisive first half hour on the eminis, but fun none the less. The GNI/CME connection was down for about 10 minutes, apparentley due to the "London Hub" where the CME pumps its prices out - did anyone else experience this downtime (uk based )..?

Yep
 
To Everest or any UK punter dancing in the U.S markets :

Would you consider it more stable to have a clearer/broker feed from the U.S or to have a clearer/broker feed from the UK via the London Hub (CME). I ask this because the London Hub goes down at least one a month and bizarrely for me at vital times. Is there also a latency issue with receiving prices from a US firm?.. and then all that paperwork transferring funds from overseas...

I'd appreciate your views/feedback

tia, Kap.
