you could be missing trades because your limit might not be sent to the most active exchange or re-routed if an offer is sitting on another...
MonkeyC points to good info. But to me the key would be that they would have to burn through $6 billion plus of equity capital before any...
that would work but these days the way the HFTs play partial fills are part of the game. Leave your order resting and most will be filled or just...
They always said they didn't and given they sold Timber Hill.......
When comparing fees you should be comparing apples and oranges. Lightspeed sells their flow mostly to Coda and Credit Suisse which presumably will...
There is no safe way unless you are going to limit the loss with spreads. To be blunt, you got greedy. There is a reason someone is buying those...

be before jumping to any conclusion, do you know if these were prop type traders and got a piece of the profits they generated? If so, they...
makes sense and given your rate it sounds like you're using IB where the FX spread for HKD is usually 1/10 of a pip you don't have much slippage...

You are missing a key issue. If the underlying shoots up, the futures can gap to limit up and not trade. The underlying can still go higher and...
Of course they can. If you are holding an option that would cause a large deficit upon expiry, I'd call you in. Other possibilities would be for...
