Hi folks, is anyone having issues with stuck arca book quotes in level 2 on sterling trader pro, been bad for a few weeks and Sterling keeps making excuses, I really hate to go back to TWS, but cant take much more of it? Am I alone? Thanks

Hello, can anyone point me in the direction of how to get an ecn fee schedule for WTS? I cant seem to get a response from my inquiry. TIA
