Ok, so continuing on from yesty's mishap. I've now got IB's TWS with my sim account open. I have one IB Dom open with the FDXM, one Jigsaw Dom with the FDAX, one Jigsaw Dom with the FDXM.
If i place a limit order on the IB DOM (FDXM), it places an order on the Jigsaw Dom (FDAX). There is now no orders on the Jigsaw Dom (FDXM), and no prints either, just the depth.
My NT instrument is clearly not right, these are my trades on the big dax today (sim) and you can clearly see i had the thing on a leash (78 points), yet my P/L has not a single winning trade....
I successfully traded the mini on my IB TWS but not connected to NT. I wish it has been as successful as my sim trades on the big dax....not near so (34 points net).
You guys are beta testers. I run some tick analysis yesterday on Sierra comparing fdax and fdxm, later has around seven times less ticks than former. Will check again in January )
- The spread and slippage plus the commish to value ratio are the current down side.
+ The smaller valuer and the fact that it is market traded and transparent .... big plus.
If you trade the trend and have a system that get's paid on big days - then this instrument has a lot to offer for smaller sized accounts to enable them to sensibly scale in ..
Pre and post markket is funny though ... I thought my internet connection was down !
