    TF on eSignal too

    Volume crap on ICE, about 7 times less so far than CME.. and there are the stability/reliability issues on ICE too

  4. Thank you.

    btw, RUT (TFZ8) quotes just disappeared from my screen about a 2 minutes ago -- haven't returned. glad I am staying away from ICE for RUT now

    About 7 times less than CME so far so I'd say that's about 30 thousand a day compared to 220 thousand on CME.. traders are still rolling over though so the picture will be clearer next week

  6. i show 20k on the TF, and 161k from the ab (cme)

    that is from 7:00-3:00

    i made the switch today to the nq, fwiw

    Yeah the AB has already dropped off, at it's height it could do 300K a day

    I've got 60K for the TF today, better than I hoped but stability remains the key

    For IB, you have select RUT, then TF for the 100 multiplier, TO for the 500 multiplier. You also have to subscribe to NYBOT trade permissions.

    TF dec on ICE did 129k on friday and er sept on cme did 120k.
    Today TF dec is trading slightly more than er sept. The key will be next week to see if the traders still trading er sept move over to the new TF dec contract. If they do, then TF Dec will do 180k
    to 250k per day and be a viable contract. Too volatile and thin now cause 1/2 still trading the old er sept. I think the TF will be good to go next week and the commish per round trip is .40 cheaper than CME.
