Before anyone try TradeStation, I would recommend him/her to read about my experience with TradeStation posted a while ago -- http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=5627 Kymer, it's about time that you tell everyone you work for TradeStation. How much are they paying...

Just curious, who is your broker? Please let us know so we can avoid the same crap.

MBG: What do you need in order to prove your case? I had a very profitable trade cancelled out on me 3 years ago also by Fidelity. But Fidelity fixed up my trading records before I had a chance to save it.

It seems to me that you already know a lot about IB when you said, "IB has advance routing and always has the latest and greatest. " Then you pretend you don't know shit about IB by asking basic questions about IB's routing. Who are you trying to fool? You're such a fake. Why don't you...

This thread is about PreferredTrade in case you don't know.

Preferred's auto-trades used to goto Knight. I haven't traded with Preferred since last year, so things may have changed. My biggest complaint about Preferred is their platform freezing up in fast markets. Whenever that happened, their phone lines become all jammed up. You know how that feels.

I have traded stocks with both Preferred and CyberTrader for over 2 years. I am no longer using Preferred. Preferred's auto-trades are routed to Knight. Most executions are fast, but can get very slow sometimes. Their platform had a terrible tendency to freeze up in fast markets. Weak...

Kymar: Hey, I didn't start this thread discussing about the shortcomings of TradeStation. If everything is so sweet and great, I wonder why others would even bother to post. Go back and read what TraderBob and PXG have said -- "TS is still not showing ALL amounts debited and credited to...

MYD: I am not talking about the SEC fees. I am talking about the way TradeStation presents their transaction information online. There is absolutely no way you can figure out on a daily basis exactly how much they are charging you on each transaction, because they don't give you the exact...

I have already complained about much of the same thing. By not providing a clear and transparent account of all the transactions, TradeStation can easily slip in a few charges on its customers, which is what they did to me. Trade with TradeStation at your own peril. You can read about...

Check out Brown & Co. -- $5 for market orders up to 5,000 shares. $10 for limit orders.

Concord is getting a bit north. Try the sourthern part of NH, close to the MA border and the sea. The weather is more like Boston -- http://www.cityrating.com/cityweather.asp?city=Boston Of course, if snow and cold do bother you, then don't consider NH.

Lifestyle-wise, Maine and Vermont are kind of similar to rural NH. However, they not low tax states, are quite far from any large Metro area, people are not as well educated, and are much colder. It seems to me that everything you are looking for can be found in NH. Besides, NH has no...

Buffett was the first to say, "We can't insure ... Manhattan from a nuclear event." They don't call him the Oracle for nothing. The Bush adminstration followed by repeating the warning, effectively telling everyone, "Next time, don't blame the govt that we don't warn you". After the...

Not as bad as you imagine, unless you guys are getting old. :) NH is rated the lowest in TOTAL tax among all 50 states. The combination of no income and no sales tax is simply impossibe to beat. I figure I would save over $100K in 5 years. Houses in southern NH are appreciating like...

Consider a move to NH. No income and no sales tax. Property tax reasonable (1.5% to 2.0%). Lots of people moving up from MA and NY.

I have finally received all of my money, minus the interests, from Bear Stearns (TradeStation). What I don't understand is why TradeStation was treating me, a good customer, like crap. I was doing trades and paying them nice commissions until I saw the incorrect data fee. Why won't they...

I wanted to try TradeStation mainly to test their trading system. Because I have my own data source, I didn't want to pay the $100 data fee. Their salesman offered me the option of signing up for the old commission plan of $15 per trade with no data fee. Once my account was activated, I also...

No, I am still waiting for my money. Back on May 3rd, I faxed them a letter requesting that my account be closed down effective immediately. I also called them on May 3rd to make sure that they did receive it, which they confirmed. But guess what? They sat on my request to close my...
