I have been paid for every limit order that was accepted and rested in the liquidity pool and was then hit and filled. They are not parsing language in the agreement and combing through every order looking for ways they can argue their way out of ...

Please don't feed the trolls. This is obviously a shill from a competitor who is so desperate for clients they have several ID's and post ridiculous claims in this thread because they can't stand the competition. Or it’s just a nut case who blew out ...
