Good stuff for a Newbie like me, thanks Low. Also, remember that us Newbies are also the beneficiaries of all things George. Through George we end up seeing things from 12 or 13 points of view. He is now George The Informer! lol, just had to tease you George!
wonderful info LT. yes it does take some hands on and persistence to get orders through. i never expect any order - buy or sell - to be executed. part of the risk profile of playing these. i have best luck through TD and using multiple, manually managed small order entries vs trying to buy or sell one large block. that large block shiz never works well.
with otc mm's my experience has been "you get what you get - smile and be happy u got anything"
the only assurance is there are no assurances down here.
