Oh wow, is this even normal?

  1. I figured that. I doubt I'd get filled on real butterflies for .00. Is that even possible? If it is, I'd just sit there all day buying them. I don't know if I'd want to hold positions more than one day if I'm day trading. It would really piss me off if a position hit a sweet spot and I couldn't close it out for a quick profit because the POS government thinks its in my best interest not to day trade, and then the next day the position is at a loss. The TOS platform seems to have its issues. Why do you think it's a joke?

  2. Sure man, everyone will hand you free flies.

  3. They claim to have real market quotes but with a 20 minute delay. Some of the SPX spread midpoints, according to their platform, can be -1.00 or more at times. What gives with that?

  5. Exaggeration, but they quote some negative midpoints fairly often.
