Well, no, I don't particularly recall yours standing out amidst the many posts that were favorable. I actually had a Market Order on a group of E-Minis that took a couple/three minutes to return the Fill. I believe the Price was correct but there is an anomaly. That even flies in the face of the theories that the Small Contract is the way to go because of Instant Fills. Frankly it made me nervous even though it was only on the Mini's. You are sure that you sent the order, but it's not Filled and you think it's supposed to be. Anyway, I decided to just trade 5 or so Mini's using it from now on and move the spoo to a regular order house. Failed experiment. Maybe once in a while if I am looking for a large move and I can place Limit Entries in time but other than that It shall just become a system for small trades from this end.
