I can rule that out because the integer book sizes were also wrong.
Another tidbit: The erroneous prices all happened in symbols that started with A, and BATS seemed to be the screwed up exchange on all the "A"...
Do any of you guys ever get weird situations in Sterling where the prices are just flat out wrong, maybe by 1 tick? I've been running the same...
I don't do this either. What I do is tell my broker to set risk limits really, really low (where the max drop is $40-$50 or whatever), then set...
+1. So true, and even my implementation of this is half-assed. I rely on my broker's risk management functions too much. This thread should...
Yeah, I agree. Impressive.

Have you ever looked at VXX or VXZ? I've been wanting to put together multi-minute hold-time long-only intraday strategies for this contract for...
One day, on the trading desk, I said this to a guy and he basically called me a barbaric nazi nutbag living in a fantasy world. And that was from...

I've been independent for a while, but I still live on the edge of a major city. I'd like to move further out into the sticks, but still want a...
Kind of cool, but probably a losing bet in terms of salary paid vs. results. Chalk it up to the speculative R&D budget? Everytime I saw one of...
I posted about this last week (see NLY thread) because of some unusual trading activity, only to be questioned. There has been steady sell...
If you invest time into learning to program, go into the business with the intention of also being able to land a job doing web development or...
I came across one of their managers once years ago and the guy didn't strike me as someone who was day trading. That firm sends out analysts to...
Thanks for the explanation. I really appreciate it. This forum is hit or miss; I like getting concrete answers like this to look into.
mREITs getting crushed today. I reduced exposure there myself. That 500k share move I saw yesterday was a predictor; I'm a dope. I should...
I am a frostie supporter, but "phantom trades" non-sense would have me on the phone with a broker/vendor and it would be a very serious...
