Does Datek have other platforms for direct access like realtick, tradestation, esignal etc.? Are they more reliable than Datek Direct in terms of speed and stability?

Thank you Fohat. My broker claims the new rules also affect cash account. Do you which web site I can get the information that I will need to show my broker that cash account is not affected?

Does the new SEC regulations for daytraders to maintain a minimum $25000 affect cash accounts? That is can one still continue daytrading with a cash account of less than $25000?

This is great. I will join IB then. I do not understand why all other brokers charge astronomical prices for ECNs.

Thank you Turok. Two months ago I had seen at their web site that they charge $0.01 per share for any ECN, but their current web site does not indicate a fee for ECNs.

Has IB stopped charging ECN fees? Can one route to an ECN of choice?

Thanks Babak for your info. But could there be a cheaper way of getting the news alert may be avoiding other futures like charting, Level II etc. I was looking for something that may cost $50 or less a month.

Does anyone know of a news alert system that can trigger a pop up window immediately when a stock has news. This should also include penny stocks.

Is there anyone using Freetradez? How realible is there system? Do they accept limit orders? Do they trade in all ECNs?
