    Check out www.venomtrading.com They recently sent out a Twitter post offering $4.00 equity trades. I don't know what they'd come down to on options, but they post $5.00 + $0.75 contract as their standard rate.

    Introducing Brokers for Wedbush clearing

    I received an email that Cobra Trading has recently signed a clearing agreement with Wedbush. Looks like a great option to get away from Apex. I'm going to look into the switch.

    Stock Brokerages

    My vote would be for Cobra Trading www.cobratrading.com You get a choice of platforms (I use IQ) and they are willing to negotiate commissions depending on your volumes. Free demos too if you want to take a spin. Thumbs up for my vote.

    Tired of unavailable shorts at IB

    I've had great luck with Cobra Trading and their willingness to make the calls to work and find me shares. IMO they are one of the best in this respect, however I'd just give them a call or IM them next time you get shut out at IB and want to see if someone else has shares.

    Sterling For Trading

    I've tried Sterling at Cobra Trading. I still use Instaquote but was told I could trade significantly cheaper on Sterling. I'm not trading prop, but if you want to play with it, I know Cobra gives out free demos.
