Can anyone provide a list of all the crosses or exotics currencies available on IB. Their website only lists the majors. Thanks.
Anyone notice a change in liquidity as of 0100 EST on Friday, June 10th? There is either 1. New liquidity provider 2. Currency arb participant on IB 3. System problem Most likely 1. or 2. Interesting - odd lot/not round number sizing may provide some clues... Bids/Offers in hundreds of millions of USD or Euros - Never driven EBS or Reuters FX systems, etc. What is the typical depth on those?
I am on IB chat right now inquiring about the fat size, I mean close to a bill bid/offers? That is HUGE. I think the fat bid/offers get no commas because they are so fat. 923,710,016 Euros bid/offer in EURJPY that is approximately $85,000 a pip!
The large size is from another liquidity provider that has just started quoting. paradox - I was thinking that myself! It's just the Yen products that we're not showing commas. Not sure if this was overlooked, or whether there's a lack of space to fit a big figure with commas. Will check.
