I saw the ES as 5000 last Friday. Maybe I didn't notice since I was flat at the end of the day. You were right in your first comment. TDA...
No it really wasn't. You are right.
The raised the margin on the ES from 5000 to 6500 over the weekend. CME is still at 5000. IB last look is 5000. I am leaving TOS going to IB or...
Think maybe underlying cause may be with Penson. Rthetorical auestion: Where would Penson be if it didn't have TOS's future clearing?
