[10:21] <+jbuch> Covered Remainder SPY Short @ 83.29 --> + 0.16
[10:22] <+jbuch> thanks
[10:26] <+rickf> wow - i am likign the charts at ToS better than the charts at OEC
[10:27] <+szubaark> why?
[10:27] <+kosmipt> just opened an account with prop firm, they'll let me daytrade stocks without 25K rule, probably will start trading SPY, SSO live next week
[10:27] <+rickf> weird how they give different looks w/in the same time frame
[10:27] <+rickf> ToS also offers some nifty customizations that OEC doesn't
[10:27] <+jbuch> Shorts SPY @ 83.24
[10:27] <+rickf> may end up trading at OEC but using ToS chart
[10:28] <+kosmipt> afaik OEC has much lower commissions on futures
[10:28] <+rickf> they do
