In the 1999 Classic Comedy "Office Space" a hypnosis enlightened office worker gets fed up with his commute, fed up with his idiotic bosses, and fed up with getting shortchanged in life.
Sound familiar?
So he finally decides to stick it to the man.
His plan is to install a computer program that redirects fractions of pennies into "an account on the side", and use the money to stop working forever.
"It's only fractions of pennies. It's a rounding error. Nobody from corporate accounting will ever notice."
Fast forward to next Monday, and it turns out those fractions of pennies added up to $305,256.23 in ONE weekend!
"Somebody will definitely notice!" He says.
This is exactly how payment-for-order-flow works, and 99% of retail traders have no idea they are being ripped off in almost the exact same way.
The list of brokers who allow this to happen to you is quite large.
That should make you wonder...
Is Your Broker Ripping You Off?
Odds are your broker is sending your orders to high frequency traders who skim and scalp your trades in exchange for millions in "kickbacks."
It's possible your broker and HFT's are in cahoots against you, siphoning your profits right under your nose.
How do you know if YOUR broker engages in payment-for-order-flow?
That's an important question, because PFOF can cost hundreds of dollars per trade in a fast moving market.
At 100 trades per year, that could be $10,000.
At 500 trades per year, that could be $50,000.
You can buy a lot with $50,000.
You can buy a brand new F-150, or a 6 month stay in Paris.
As you can see, this money really starts to add up.
I wonder if your broker is ripping you off?
