Hi Brendon, I agree. it sucks though because not everyone has the 25K for U.S. based broker. quick question, what did you enter as the Tax ID number for CMEG. I had losses, and would like to somehow include this on my taxes. thanks!

HI guys, I am in.

Hi Alex, According to them they don't issued 1099 forms, instead they provide you with a statement. I had to call them directly many many times even waited on the phone for long periods of time before i got to someone. Last time i called i was so frustrated and mad, i got on the phone and told them i need my tax statement or I will have my attorney call them! i asked for a supervisor or manager number. They emailed me the statement withing minutes. Of course I was not going to have my attorney call, don't have one but it got the job done. they done have tax Id or ITIN since they are foreign. I have to research on how to file this with taxes.

Getting tax statement from CME was a hassle. I called they would put me on hold, they would tell me they will call or email me information. It took two weeks of constant calling (direct calling), emailing and finally, when I said i need a contact name for my attorney to contact, they sent me the information. I closed my account months ago with them, but I am considering U.S. based broker. Not worth the frustration. not happy at all!

Hi all, I have a quick question, I am trying to get 1099 or statement from CME but it seems i cant get through. I've called directly, sent emails, and called the toll free as well. Is anyone here having a similar issue? Tax season is here and I need to report. thank you :)

HI Lee, But that is the thing, I did not go short. I went long and when I tried to sell half, that's the message it gave me.

Good Morning Kyle hope all is well, I am testing the stop order below. I enter # of shares I want buy and the stop order triggers in montage .10 risk, I click on Sell and you can see my buy and sell order on montage. lets say the price action is going my direction and I try to sell half it gives me an error message, saying I don't have shorts available. I am just testing. I went long @ 2.62, SL 2.42 Thank You Kyle.. Price=Ask+.05;TIF=DAY+;Buy=Send;ROUTE=STOP;StopType=Market;StopPrice=Ask-0.10;Share=Pos;TIF=DAY+;SELL=Send:

thank you Kyle, I will test this out tomorrow. Yes, I also agreed, .10 stop may be ok for some stocks while tight for others. I wont be using this hotkey on all stocks. again thank you.

HI guys, I Need help!!! so I created a hotkey in montage, that automatically places a SL .10 away from my entry. The thing is that I don't think its working and I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I enter the # of shares I want to buy hit the hotkey, but it prompts me to enter the SL amount. I want to DAS to do it automatically and I don't know how. Here is what I am using: Price=Ask+.05;TIF=DAY+;Buy=Send;ROUTE=STOP;StopType=Market;StopPrice=AvgCost-0.10;Share=Pos;TIF=DAY+;SELL=Send; Price=Bid-.05;TIF=DAY+;Sell=Send;ROUTE=STOP;StopType=Market;StopPrice=AvgCost+0.10;Share=Pos;TIF=DAY+;BUY=Send; thanks.

My account is active and i am planning on using it this upcoming week, i will definitely keep this in mind, when shorting a stock.

great!

Excellent Work!

I would love to order a t-shirt.

I live in NYC, I practically re-arranged my work schedule to be able to trade in the mornings. I work from 10:30 to 6:30, looking to trade in the first 30 to 40 minutes, after open. It not for the flexibility that my job offers me, I would not be able to do it. I considered FoREX in the beginning but I agree, its a totally different animal and thought starting in equity's would be best. None the less, good luck!
