    alternatives to IB

    RTS is just a software vendor like TT isn't it? It connects you to the exchanges and you pay for the data from the exchange. You still then need to choose a clearing firm who support RTS to be able to do any trading, think Marex does from memory if you're just after futures and options but...

    X_Trader users?? Which charting software do you use?

    I have cqg on an internet connection and tt on another computer with a dedicated lease line (no web access thus it's totally sterile) If you just want to execute orders like you say there are plenty of more economical solutions out there. Don't pay for something you don't need. Most pro...

    X_Trader users?? Which charting software do you use?

    TT has the patent on single click execution on the down click of the mouse without confirmation on a static ladder. Most prop traders got used to this and only when TT got the patent about 6yrs ago did they find it hard to adapt to other moving ladder platforms, upclick entry etc. For outright...

    https://multimediafiles.kbcgroup.eu/ng/published/WP/PDF/marktenzaal_flash_ECB.pdf Look at the graph of the trade weighted euro on page 3, looks pretty neutral to me. Don't forget that Portugal represents only 1.x% of eurozone gdp too, it's just a media hype. Germany is booming, wage...

    Good luck to him in Singapore it's about 10yrs behind the US and Europe in terms of electronic trading.
