    Which Execution Platform?

    Grant ... No, i dont. I havent used the others you listed. But, i have gone over some of the docs a bit. BT offers quite a bit in strategy building and visual testing for example. Tick charts only. They appear side by side with the DOM/trading grid. Very fast execution and rock solid...

    why QT or Sierra?

    I use QT and SC with IB data feed running together all the time. Never a problem here. Once in a while i will also use IB's charts. Not nearly as well featured as QT and SC. IMO QT is hard to beat with a 6 mo subscription. SC has a cool spreadsheet facility among other things. ... rj

    Hidden Fees in IB

    TB ... The IB commish for a 1000 sh is 5$. Commish would be 7$ at Scottrade at IB bundled rate. For 2000 sh trade IB fee would be 10$ and w/ST it would still be 7$. Depends on your trade behavior....doesnt it??? Fills should be superior at IB. ... rj

    Get Real.

    Ok, but watch out, though. The phrase "nearly no delay" will be the gotcha. For intra day traders this would probably be useless. If you are holding a stk and just want to watch it trade real time you can always bring up an ARCA book window for free now. ... rj
