Faster -- You could always try posting your trades to the intraday chat room. May be easier and quicker to deal with, though of course you won't get the hard log. Well, just a thought...

Something weird about this whole thing -- with the exception of a major glitch (or facts left out), margin / buying power cannot be exceed on the establishment of a new position on IB's system.

DatTrader is right -- SL4 may be exactly what you're looking for. Don't know why he couldn't get a demo, though. Maybe it was a fluke or something. For more info on it , you can go to: http://www.spectrenet.com/sl4

Looks like TradeStation did finally come to their senses! They really did make a full 180 and then some. Puts them right back into the game again. Let's hope they stay on the right track this time!

Without getting back into a whole heated battle all over again... SPECTRE Level IV is currently available through www.letsgotrade.com at one cent per share. The main website for the product itself is www.spectrenet.com/sl4. I've seen a lot of stuff out there in my time and nothing quite...

WonderDuck -- I definitely asked IB about that MANY times over the past YEAR! Maybe there's another reason for why they don't want to offer it???

Bryan -- for info on SL4, click on the "search" feature on elitetrader and type that in. There were several threads going on about it, but for some reason the threads have now been closed down, without any real explanation that I could find from elitetrader management. For charting and the...

>>Avoids issues/questions posed (can't answer questions about secrets...) People keep complaining about SL4CEO not answering questions about secrets. It's amazing how interested people seem to be in how something operates, as if they need to know that before they can accept for themselves...

I don't believe xcowboy was "slandering" IB, nor do I believe he means IB "screws up people's money". In xcowboy's previous posts, in fact, he seems to praise IB. For example: >>demo, what else can we say? Those who'd rather put down IB >>rather than just go and make a direct evaluation...

eSignal definitely doesn't have e-mini depth of book -- only the top level (best bid / ofr and size)

AAA -- how do you like using RealTick? What kind of pricing model are you using it with now? They really should fix the issue with all the ecn book data slowing down the interface. Of course, you can just NOT show it. But it seems like it should be a no-brainer for a company of their size...

usually commissions are refunded if a trade gets busted.

Does anyone know of a data vendor that provides depth of book for the CME E-Mini future contracts? I've checked with quite a few and NONE of them seem to support that yet.

AAA -- what platform and broker are you using now? I'd be interested in taking some of my time and checking them out. Well, at least as much time as you have been dedicating to your posts here. But then again, if you were satisfied with what you are already using, I guess you wouldn't be...

Rigel -- This really isn't about listening to anyone or anyone's general opinions, with the exception of "their opinion as it relates to their trading". This really boils to the old "don't judge a book by its cover" statement. As traders, we owe it to ourselves to give every new product at...

Rigel -- who ever said trading with any platform would be easy? Trading is one of the most difficult things of all to do successfully. And anything that can make it "easier" or potentially more lucrative is something to be considered. What platform are you currently using? If it's so good...

mjt -- I would have to say the issue is probably QCharts then. I love QChart's charts and interface and such, but they do have quote issues here and there. When QCharts is working smoothly it's great, especially at the price. And QCharts has gotten MUCH better recently, with many more...

I've been reading this thread and I've got to say that it seems like everyone in here is missing the point. aldrum saws mjt's concern about a 2 second delay was never addressed. Yet it says specifically that SL4 is compatible with multiple quote vendors. So the question is, when mjt was...
