  1. how best to get a small order done 5 lots say in the front spread eg mar/may, leg in ?
     
  2. also is globex first in first served regardless of size or is it like the old project a which was some kind of algo sized order que
     
  3. be careful ... they are a bunch of monkeys out there with no clue

    trading those spreads ....

    if they had a CLUE ... those spreads would not go kookoo

    from time to time and be "arb"d like other "sane" markets

  4. your better off legging a spread like h/k because you have virtually no chance of buying bids or selling offers when its usually 20k up at night and 100k up during the day

    Why 60/40? I thought it was 50/50 after TOP order and LMMs
