  1. Broncos likely to set a new NFL scoring record, but defense has been suspect all year. Looks like any team which makes the playoffs has "slugger's chance".

  2. ah, now I get it's not so much the buy sell execution you are concerned about, it's the accounting. That's where the "80 points" comes from

    so you want the new contract pnl to reflect what you already had in the old month

    no, I don't know off hand if you could set up anything at ib to do that. I doubt it, but you could find a third party accounting system that you could use with any broker

    well, now that I think about it, you can manually change your average price in fx, not sure about ES

    as far as accidently doubling up, as a safeguard, make the opening order contingent on the closing order getting filled
