Anyone use the Leo Quick order screen with the default set to market, 1 E-mini?

This way all you have to change is the B for buy or S for sell. If you are watching it with a good software package, forget the stops.

Tales From the Darkside: LeoWeb, The Unfavorable Viewpoint

That has nothing to do with the problems, Scott.

Let's be frank. I cannot recall a single bad post about LeoWeb. If I had, I would have been more careful.

Truth be told, it's not the rosy picture that I have read in all these posts.

If I had read problems, such as I have had, I would at least have seen both sides. I wish I had read posts about the LeoWeb problems instead of just the positive experiences.

Now I intend to post my problems. Perhaps I shall save someone else from losing money because of after the fact "Well, you should have...."

S***, no one told me that I might have to presume that LeoWeb would not take a Stop order when I tried to XMit it, or that I had to clear everything from the day before, or that I had to search for an order because it was not in sequence, or a bunch of other things.

Everyone said it was just peaches and cream.

Well, it isn't. And I hope that by posting such the next person is not persuaded that it is. So I intend to print such problems rather than have the next person go through the nightmare that I have.

I don't need postgame analysis. What I need to know is the pitfalls. By the time I find all of them out i could be out 10 Large per contract. This is not one of those, "Well, gee, you should have...."

Funk Dat.
