  1. I think this is the first time...
    Hopefully my numbers are all right.

    THIS ROCKS. ALL PITS ARE DEAD.
    CLOSE OUT THE NYSE FLOOR.

    I wonder how much volume it would take to justify a .10 tick size.

    2 million.....2 billion.......

    You won't kill the floor until the tick size is reduced.

    And a cut in Globex fees. Much more expensive to trade 5 ES vs. 1 SP. You can bet your bippy that Eurex is working on a proxy for the traditional benchmark U.S. indices.
     
  4. volume probably right...got filled on all limits today no matter direction afterward!
     
  5. No No please not cut the tick size...
    Sorry, but I am fine with it.
    I fear it could take the same way
    as decimalization.

    The fees should be lowered ASAP !!!!

    I don't see the problem, a tick on the Ym is worth $5, why not for NQ and Es?
     

  7. Yeah Rocks -- the GLOBEX right out of business!!!!


    They need to get their infrastructure together to justify their cost at this volume.
