    Hello everyone!

    Is there a broker/platform which allows you to enter into futures butterfly spread with one (limit) order?

    Many thanks in advance

    Optionshop provides exchange listed spreads. You can also structure your own with RFQs. You can do a 1 lot. What retail platform wouldn't?
     

  3. The fly does not have a native order book at the CME. You'd need to use X_Trader's spreader or the like.

    This is false, many fly's are exchange supported and you can simply pull up a dom.

    Dear bathrobe,

    thank you for your knowledgeable reply. Now, can you please tell me which broker do you use (unless I am wrong, I could not find futures fly spreads in Interactive Brokers TWS), and also if you know by chance where or how I can find a list of futures which has exchange supported fly spreads.

    Many thanks again.

    I am pretty sure IB has them, I have seen people post screenshots of spreads in IB. But if not Advantage, Crossland, Amp, I don't know of a list.

    Thank you so much!

    You are really helpful
     

  9. IB will do it now. Right click on future, choose combinations, futures. Then setup leg by leg , etc
     
  10. I do using the TOS platform....they allow for a single click future options spread order.
