Is this common? Do you know if, for example, IB, restricts this type of activity and for what reason? As you can probably tell, I'm trying to get...
Not really, because I might need to cancel the order and place a new at a slightly higher/lower level if I need the order to be executed quickly....
I'm new to trading and especially automated/algorithmic trading. However, I have some programming skills and have been thinking about...
Thanks! For NYSE fees, for example, there is a difference between different "tapes" (A, B, C). I have no idea what these are? These have different...
I'm a beginner and have been taking a look at different brokers and their commissions. For stock trading, Interactive Brokers offers a tiered...
I would hope so, but I'm afraid it may for small, illquid stocks. There are plenty that have average volumes of less than $100,000 per day. Based...
I took a closer look at the details of the IB commission structure. In the tiered structure, can adding liquidity (placing limit orders that won't...
I'm aware of those, but on the other hand, IB seems to offer better/more fair execution (direct market access, no HFTs front running, etc.),...
Thanks, I have spent quite a lot of time exploring that page. Let's clear something: I'm a beginner and probably ask stupid questions. I'm here...
I haven't done any day trading yet, but thinking seriously about trying some more frequent trading strategies in the stock market. So far,...

I noticed that Interactive brokers also offers zero commission US stock trading. Is there a catch there too (they are not selling to HFTs, are they)?
Thanks for this info. Just to clarify, does selling the order flow imply that if I place a market order to buy a stock, the HFT firm immediately...
Is this all zero commission brokers (including Schwab), or just the smaller ones? I've heard robinhood does this. What if I place a market order,...
I haven't been doing much active trading because of costs, but with these zero commission offers, I'm thinking of more active strategies (entering...
I know that some major brokerages (Schwab and others) have been offering zero commission stock trading in the US market for a while now. I live in...
Still trying to understand this though. Is there some time window in the past that they cannot comment on (say the previous month or so)? Because...
What about hedge funds commenting on their bets or trades? I'm a bit confused because often times I read an article or a newsletter written by a...
This is kind of a newbie question, but I cannot find clear guidelines on this topic: I sometimes read in the news that a trader got in some...
