    Poor Fills on Firstrade

    If you are getting the vast majority 99% executed on one exchange then there's issues with the Broker's order routing/best execution practices. That one exchange "wins" the vast majority is like a sports team winning 300 times in a row. Boggles the mind.

    Poor Fills on Firstrade

    Clearing is just on the settlement side and doesn't impact anything. Where were your orders executing? Does the trading platform show you or is it hidden?
