the only real chance for lower commissions would be that the CME makes big S&P futures electronic. They should be pressured to do this.
i think the commissions are at their low limits. major part is the exchange fee and clearing costs. there is not very much room to lower. maybe...
exactly. the contracts are the same except for multipliers.
dnaj, may I ask how large the position was ? I would assume they do this with smaller positions, but you would have to argue if you go e.g....
there are no bid & ask quotes. only LAST. If you want bid&ask, you need a squawk box.
yes. CME employees for price reporting try to catch every transaction. They have fancy keypads similar to what you see at your local...
Just give them some time. I still like their platform & the API. 7.7 was a big step, new protocols were introduced. RT is still a good firm, I...

Eurex Technical Platform is even worse than ARCA in it's really bad time... They don't even transmit all trades to quote vendors... I...
LIFFE connect is the new system. It is far better than the shitty Eurex ACE platform.
October 20, 2003 SEC sounds death-knell for open-outcry trading at NYSE From Abigail Rayner in New York THE US Securities and Exchange...
Eurex A/C/E technical system is pure bullshit. It will be better on LIFFE connect. I do hope EurexUS will NOT enter the market alone...
Yes, the fee schedule is very favourable for Eurex. However, the A/C/E system is PURE BULLS**T! It is still based on 64kbit connections, not...
Ditch, did you see more quotes in ESignal or DTN than in IB ? I mean, even if they lagged a bit, did they update more frequently ? Thanks
