Guest Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 Hi all- I've been paper trading for a couple of months and I have now had 3 instances where my limit orders were filled well in excess of my limit price. As an example the SPX fly in as a sell to close limit of $8.15 and it was filled at $19.80. And when I check the spreads it is trading nowhere near that price. I am using OptionsHouse. Has anyone else seen this behavior and do you have any reasoning for why this may occur? It seems erroneous. Thx, Jim Quote
Guest Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 (edited) I think several people have mentioned that in other threads. https://steadyoptions.com/forum/topic/2870-spx-trade/?hl=optionshouse#entry49918 https://steadyoptions.com/forum/topic/2513-execution-and-market-system/?hl=optionshouse#entry46392 Edited September 30, 2015 by edboc Quote
Guest Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 Thanks for the links. Good reads. I like the idea of trading single lots where feasible during my learning curve period. Quote
Guest Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 Jim, I had the same experience and posted the details of a written chat with OH about a week ago. In essence, the paper trading function they have is worthless. Quote
