    Wrong again you lying fraudster. You said your pics "belong to early hours and early morning". Oops, big problem there for you because when the CME re-opens trading @4:30 EST, its a new trading day as far as the CME is concerned. That means at precisely 4:30:00 the ES volume is reset to 0. The Transact, (and I'll bet every other platform) displays volume as 0 until the first AH contract is traded. It doesn't matter whether you stay connected to the Transact platform from 4:15 to 4:30, or you log off, then log back on at 4:30. When trading resumes @4:30 the displayed volume is reset to 0. In your pics the displayed volume is 1.8MM and 1.6MM. This means that your screenshots were certainly were not taken as you claim, during "early hours and early morning" If that were the case, the displayed volume would be very low, and no where near the 1.8MM shown in your pics. So, its just more lies from you.

    We are still waiting for you to tell us the date and time those pics were taken. Come on what's the hold up? Well, OK, alright, we all know what the hold up is, you are caught in a lie, and have no way explaining your way out of it. That's why you won't post the date and time of the pics. You are just a little 1-lot trader who tried to pawn himself off as some guy that, how did you put it? Oh yeah, who is "churning hundreds of contracts per day". Time for you to go back in the fish bowl, little fishy.

  2. Admin,
    Thanks for your prompt attention to keep the thread free of nuisance noise.
    I am ignoring the problematic posts by this person and will not respond to them to avoid encouraging his false and rude comments.

    It was so obvious you are owned by Transact, wasn't it now? This clearly proves all your baseless attacks.

    I just hope that these 3 persons are not all the same guy with different fake aliases.
    I just hope it's not you Bill, I have always respected and have spoken very highly of you?!

    Looking at the IB Commission table, my calculation is:
    4000 sides = 2000 RT

    300 sides (150 RT): (0.90+0.30+0.10)*300= 390
    700 sides (350RT): (0.70+0.30+0.10)*700 = 770
    3000 sides(1500RT):(.45+.020+0.10)*3000= 2250
    = TOT : 3410
    + Exchange fees (= 2.30 RT): 2000 * 2.30=4600
    = TOT: 3410 + 4600 = 8010

    8010/2000= ~ 4.00 USD / RT

  5. The $0.10 is only charged if the position is held overnight. For daytraders it is 7610/2000 = ~3.80 USD.

    You mean Global Futures? And X-Trader?

    Those fees seem cheap. Can you tell more about your experience at GF?
    And why is a platform so expensive? It's just a piece of software.. or is it that wonderful??
