http://img239.imageshack.us/img239/6808/igmarketstickbytickfn9.png Klick bitte mal auf das Bild, dann öffnet sich ein Screenrecord (Flash muss installiert sein). Du wirfst einen interessanten Punkt auf. Und zwar gibt es einen Delay zwischen PureDeal und IT-Finance, also irgendwo in der API. (alles nur Vermutungen!!!) Ich weiß nicht wie ihr das deutet, aber um genau zu erörtern, wie hoch der tatsächliche Spread ist bzw. DAXI vom IG Dax abweicht, muss man schwerere Geschütze auffahren. Mache ich gerne, insofern es der Allgemeinheit hilft. Das kann allerdings etwas dauern, ich hoffe das ist ok. "Dehnungseffekt" ;) , dass hat man davon, wenn man eigene Wortkreationen verwendet. Ich sags mal so: Wenn ich vorm Orderbuch sitze (Annahme ich sei Market Maker) dann kann ich je nach Lage, die Kurstellung verschieben und trotzdem den Spread beibehalten. Aufmerksame Trader wie du, würden das vermutlich mitbekommen...

Hallo Ecart, das ist nicht ungewöhnlich. Index Tracker sind synthetische Produkte, wer große Positionen im handeln will, kommt definitiv an der Eurex besser weg. Bei kleinen Positionen stört der 3 Punkte Spread. Der wird zwar demnächst auf 2 herabgesetzt (beim 1 € Mini) aber durch die Ask Bid Steuerung kann es auch da zu "Dehnungseffekten" kommen. Dass es mehr als 5 Punkte sein sollen, das ist eine interessante Feststellung. Ich kann bei nächster Gelegenheit gerne mal den Dax IG und von ESignal nebenher laufen lassen aufzeichnen, dann können wir das gerne Sequenz für Sequenz durchgehen.

Durch die neuerlichen Erfolge von Hillary Clinton hat der Kontrakt vom Low knapp 90 % gewonnen. Sollte Amerika noch nicht für einen schwarzen Präsidenten bereit sein, wird es vermutlich weitere Aufschläge geben.

Das Video ist spektakulär. Es kursierte unmittelbar nach dem gescheiterten Landeversuch im Internet und bahnte sich von da den Weg in's TV. Wenn man dieses Manöver sieht, kann man vor den Piloten nur den Hut ziehen und sich vor dieser Leistung verneigen. Wer in so einer Situation die Nerven behält, der verdient uneingeschränkten Respekt. Ich kann nur hoffen, dass es für diese unglaubliche Rettungsaktion eine Auszeichnung gibt.

CMC jetzt mit 3,1 % vorne.

Wie dem Bundesverband der Wertpapierfirmen an den deutschen Börsen e.V. (bwf) aus dem Kreis seiner Mitglieder mitgeteilt wurde, hat die Bundesanstalt für Finanzdienstleistungsaufsicht (BaFin) - nachdem ihr erst vor kurzem die entsprechenden Unterlagen durch die EdW zur Verfügung gestellt worden sind – bereits damit begonnen, in einzelnen Fällen die Anträge der EdW Institute auf Aussetzung der Vollziehung der im Dezember 2007 erlassenen Sonderbeitragsbescheide zurückzuweisen. Eine Entscheidung über die eingelegten Widersprüche als solche ist hiermit allerdings noch nicht verbunden. Quelle: bwf BaFin.Abweisung.05.03.2008.pdf

PaddyPower folgt dem Beispiel von ChoiceOdds. Da es sich um einen der großen Anbieter mit einer hohen Anzahl an deutschen Kunden handelt, ist davon auszugehen, dass andere Anbieter bald folgen werden.

Hallo Hubertus, schön das du mal wieder vorbeischaust. Auch wenn hier wenig los ist, freuen wir uns doch über jede Information zu Redmonitor und zu dem, was da bei euch passiert. Wie wir sehen können, läuft die Produktentwicklung auf Hochtouren. Mit der Verfügbarkeit der Schnittstelle und dem neuen Marketmaker dürfte es einen weiteren Schub für die Exchange geben. Glückwunsch zu dieser Entwicklung! Falls ihr bei euren unzähligen Projekten noch Zeit findet, dann lasst bitte ab und zu mal etwas von euch hören. Das tom-next.com Team drückt euch weiterhin die Daumen und wünscht viel Erfolg. Beste Grüße nach Wien Fabian

Hallo zusammen, Bilder stellen zum einen wichtiges Instrument bei der Visualisierung von Handelsstrategien dar. Darüberhinaus sind Screenshots ein probates Mittel, um in Zweifelsfällen, einem Broker (egal ob Discount - oder CFD-) einen Fehler nachweisen zu können. Solange keine einheitliche Terminolgie unter den Gesprächspartnern existiert, ist es oftmals einfacher, Probleme oder Situationen anhand eines Schaubildes zu erklären. Wir haben verschiedene Features in die Boardsoftware eingebaut, darunter sind auch zwei Optionen Bilder entweder auf unseren Server hochzuladen bzw. Imageshack dafür zu verwenden. Photobucket hat sich in der Vergangenheit nicht bewehrt, da hochgeladene Dateien nach kurzer Zeit gelöscht werden. Wie in diesem Beitrag [Link] zu sehen ist, wird das Bild nicht mehr angezeigt und dadurch fehlt eine nicht unerhebliche Komponente der Diskussion. Also wenn ihr möchtet, dass auch nach 12 Monaten jedes Detail an euren Beiträgen erhalten geblieben ist, dann nutzt bitte eine der anderen Möglichkeiten. Wir werden vermutlich auch demnächst ein neues Forum einrichten, in denen wir nützliche Tipps bezüglich Software und deren Handhabung veröffentlichen werden. Dieses soll dazu dienen, dass ihr mit einfachen Mitteln und kostengünstig sehr effizient arbeiten könnt. So z.B. werden wir erklären, wie ihr am schnellsten einen vernünftigen Screenshot machen könnt und diesen entsprechend euren Bedürfnissen bearbeiten könnt. Wer Fragen oder Anregungen hat, bitte in den dafür vorgesehenen Foren adressieren. Wir freuen uns über jede Art des Feebacks

Dann müssen wir von irgendwoher einen Programmierer abwerben :-)

Die Beschriftungen der Grafiken werden auch immer professioneller Hast du zufällig mal geschaut, ob diese Anzeige in Dealbook oder PureDeal möglich ist?

Danke für den Hinweis!

Das ist wirklich ärgerlich, aber gleich das böse M-Wort zu verwenden, dafür ist es noch etwas verfrüht. Eine systematische Vorgehensweise gegen die Kunden würde CMC nur Ärger einbringen. Selbst wenn man ab und an davon hört, dass besonders erfolgreiche Investoren einen "besonderen Status" beim Datamining geniesen, so wird kein Broker so dumm sein und sich so leicht überführen lassen. Der Trader hat Zugriff auf professionelle Handelssysteme und damit gute Changen mögliche Mistrades zweifelsfrei nachzuweisen.

FSA/PN/017/2008 3 March 2008 The Financial Services Authority (FSA) today published new rules requiring firms to record telephone conversations and other electronic communications to help deter and detect market abuse in the UK. From March 2009, firms will have to record all telephone conversations and electronic communications relating to client orders and the conclusion of transactions in the equity, bond, and derivatives markets. The FSA consulted on the taping rules last year. In response to the comments received, the FSA conducted a further review of the cost-benefit analysis and discussed with the industry the scope and practicalities of the new rules. The original proposals changed significantly following this work. The retention period for recorded calls and communications has been reduced from 3 years to 6 months. Mobile phone conversations have been exempted from the taping rules but this will be reviewed in 18 months time. In addition, discretionary investment managers will not be required to record telephone conversations and electronic communications with firms that are subject to the taping rules. © 2008 FSA

TORONTO, March 3 /CNW/ - CMC Markets Canada Inc. (CMC Markets) today announced that it has become a member of the Investment Dealers Association of Canada (IDA), the national self-regulatory organization for the Canadian securities industry. "This is fantastic news for our clients and for the future of Contracts for Difference (CFDs) in Canada," stated Alex Daschko, Managing Director & CEO. "What this means is that CMC Markets' trading activities in distributing CFDs, which are a relatively new investment product in the Canadian marketplace, are now regulated by the IDA. In addition to IDA oversight, clients also receive the safeguards of the Canadian Investor Protection Fund, which is another major benefit of IDA membership." CFDs are one of the fastest growing trading instruments in the world, with 35% of the volume on the London Stock Exchange being attributed to the product. CMC Markets is the only distributor of CFDs in Canada, and although they are currently restricted to accredited investors, CFDs are growing in popularity. This is because of the access they provide to global Equities, Indices, Commodities, Treasuries and Currencies, as well as the powerful leverage component. All Canadian equity CFDs (those in which the underlying instrument is an issuer listed on a Canadian stock exchange) are currently offered at a margin rate of 15% to 30%. This means the leverage on Canadian CFDs is more competitive than on traditional Canadian shares, which typically offer a 30-50% margin rate. To qualify as an IDA member, companies must satisfy stringent capital requirements, maintain appropriate levels of insurance and have sales and executive management teams that meet certain proficiency requirements. "Being recognized by the IDA is another important milestone in our Canadian growth strategy, with our ultimate goal of becoming one of the country's premier trading firms. We look forward to continuing to bring new and exciting products to the Canadian marketplace," added Mr. Daschko. For more information on CMC Markets Canada and CFDs please visit www.cmcmarkets.ca.

Saxo Bank Profits Up 78% in Record Year COPENHAGEN, March 3 /PRNewswire/ -- Saxo Bank's profits soared by 78% to EUR49 million before tax in 2007 compared to EUR27.5 m in 2006. These results released today show the strength of the bank's franchise in a year that saw significant investments in a global expansion programme. "This year we witnessed significant achievements in the continued effort to be a truly global bank, servicing clients and partners with a broad product offering through very volatile markets," says Kim Fournais, Saxo Bank Co-founder and Co-CEO. The Bank recorded growth in revenues, earnings and shareholders' equity in 2007 as the number of client accounts, deposits and trading volumes reached new heights. The combined effect drove group operating income up 56% compared to the previous year, reaching a record level of EUR210 m in 2007. "In what was a very difficult year for the markets, we are delighted to see evidence that our ongoing support, technical innovation and commitment to clients has translated into increased client activity and such a significant increase in operating profits," comments Lars Seier Christensen, Saxo Bank Co-founder and Co-CEO. In 2007 Saxo Bank saw total assets increase by 62% to EUR1.3 bn, up from EUR826 m, while shareholders' equity grew organically EUR30 m. Together, with the issue of new shares worth EUR58 m, total shareholder equity grew to EUR147 m. Partners, clients, trading volume and operating income all grew across the different product offerings with collateral deposits, a strong indicator of prospective growth in trading activity and earnings reaching EUR1.2 bn. "The tremendous financial growth from the previous year is attributable to both our existing Private Client market and to core activities including White Labelling, which was a hallmark of our success in 2007," says Fournais. The Bank's White Labelling sector saw record growth in terms of Partner numbers and recognition through 2007. Saxo Bank now has more than 100 White Label Partners, using the group's first class suite of account set-up, risk management and market optimisation capa­bilities.

"Last year marked a very important turning point in our strategy to take the renowned Saxo Bank brand global," says Christensen.
