    trading technologies x_trader

    this seems silly if you are trading futures there is not going to be any differecnce between Trading Technologies, Patsystems, GL and IB. They are all connected directly to the exchange In fact even if you have a Globex terminal its not going to make a tad bit of difference to your trading...
