  2. I missed a good entry on the KE/ZW this morning. I saw it was right at about 5, but wanted to watch and see how it acted around that level and I was getting ready to take my son to school, so I figured I would enter when I got back. Already at like 8-9 by the time I got back

  3. Ok, I entered at 7.75. That is half my position, I will see if we pullback anymore before entering the rest.

    Must add, IB acts a bit odd on these cross product spreads. Earlier I placed an order at the ask, but didn't get a fill. Do any of you all have issues with that? I know it isn't exchange supported, but sitting on the ask i would think it would execute right away.

    It's exchange spread. It has its own ticker, DOM...

    This is one of those products that IB completely has the capability to support as a native spread but just simply hasn't.

    As far as I know, there's a bunch of cross-product spreads that are native that they simply haven't added. It's dumb, but it's on us to complain about all of them until they add it. They did add some popular ones previously (oil related).

  7. Yeah, that is a very good point. I have noticed the crack spreads they added, but I don't get why they don't offer the rest of them. I will submit a message about it as well.

    Also, their charting on spreads can be pretty frustrating also. It never seems anywhere near correct I feel like.

    The charting on spreads in TWS is just ridiculous. I don't even think it's native at all, just a synthetic.

  9. Just submitted a ticket to them on adding this one as well as others. I would assume they probably won't want to, but who knows.

  10. Exactly, that is why it looks terrible I think.
