    Im lost....When you say Retail,it sounds like you are talking "retail/pro traders"who are trading very short time frames...

    Im talking Mom and Pop...They come first..

    As long as we dont get smacked with some "trader tax",I have zero complaints

    See,I am the Happy guy :)

    They wouldn’t know about his CV if he wasn’t shouting it from the rooftops. I can't imagine posting a nine month stint. No way the guy left of his own volition.

    If I receive a “fill improvement” then 9/10 it’s because the mkt moved against my limit. I generally trade marketable-limits.

    Now, if you have some proof (any of you) that non-PFOF brokers offer better fills then I'd love to see it. The only time that I ever noticed frequent fill improvement was with E*Trade Pro (excluding not held broker touch).

    IB posts some impressive audited fill stats for directed (non pfof) order flow. Can't speak for all pfof houses as I have not seen stats from many, but those I have seen look way worse.

    IF that's his house\ looks better than any apartment\rent receipts.
    Sorry he apparently did not learn to cut a loss or losing lawsuit.
    Working @ Citadel for 9 months, no wonder he left after 9 months , was he asked to leave??
    HOW is PFOF, which is openly disclosed ''hypocrisy'' HUH??
    Use a limit order.
    He may want to give the sweater away, cut a loss anywhere:D:D
