I am getting spread legs filled where the individual legs are filled in pennies. Example I put in a .77 limit order and the short was filled at...
I wonder if the weekly NDX allow penny trading. I just double checked to make sure I was entering orders on the weeklys both at IB and TOS and I...
Thanks for pointing this out FSU. What is strange is that I get executed on penny increments using TOS. How is this possible?
