Assent

Aight, Automated had MOC problems. Some other traders had buying power problems. Incorrect buying power would show and prevent the traders from closing positions.

Also, Assent holds your money for 12 months. That is a long time IMO.

That's pretty funny. My office has had one Hammer shutdown in the past 12 months...and that was because one of the techs accidentally ripped out a cable while moving equipment. We were down for less than 30 minutes.

That makes no sense. Buying power CANNOT BE ADJUSTED without the trader logging off and logging back in. Also, buying power has absolutely nothing to do with a trader CLOSING his positions.
 
I would go with VOLUME.

From what I heard about other firms' systems going down, my Hammer experience has been a godsend.
 
WHat a baby...u almost seem like your crying over there...talk about trying to protect an intrest...And could you cut down on all this philosophy talk also...U claim that I have no right to bash Assent b/c I should consider my problem to be unique and out of the ordinary, and therfore b/c i didnt poll every last trader in Assent I have no right to bash them ..Well listen here buddy...I could care less about other traders experiences with Assent...This is a public forum and I am stating my own experience with Assent. And if I want to Bash them b/c of what I went through with them, It is my right. With that said, It seems to me you have some intrest in Assent...I would like to wish you alot of luck ...b/c u will def need it there.

I do not mean to come off as condencending but I find it to be a bit unfair and rude to make posts like about a firm based on your individual experience. Especially when your situation is very out of the ordinary and it is very possible you did not even bother to look at the other options within the firm. I have had quite a few problems within Assent in the last several months but all of them were taken care of simply by talking to the correct people. [/B]

Yeah ok Im a baby. I'm not the one that came into the thread and stated nothing but lies. What's even funnier is that you went to Generic which just adds the icing to the cake.
I can't tell if you just have an anti-Assent agenda and simply stating lies or you really had a bad experience with the firm. I'm not trying to say that Assent is heaven but it is certainly nowhere near what you claim it to be. Thanks for wishing me luck but I won't need it. All you need is a brain and common sense just so that you can speak to the right people if you have problems.

Hammer trading platform is lean and fast.

The only drawback is that it goes down too much IMO and for hours. On average it goes down once a week. Their charting package now is eSignal I believe. eSignal is not like the Hammer. It is too clunky and bloated. It is like MetaStock. AT Financial is like the Hammer and it's the best charting package I ever used but I heard it's going to be discontinued.

"They just wanted you to churn and churn and churn, thats not the way I trade."

Hmm...now that I think about the above comment and my days at Assent, I think the above poster is right. Their motto was "churn and burn baby!"

Your're right!!! At least someone on this post agrees with me about Assent.(HAMMER!!!)
Down At Least once a week!!

And someone else wrote in before about MOC orders, and all I could say is when are theses guys gonna learn.
5 min before the close and you got 15 orders out there and Hammer goes down........................Real Nice Trading Software............................AHHHHHHHHHHHHH BULLSHIT!

Someone else wrote before that it could be the Ferrari of software...............I guess they haven't experienced LightSpeed.

What a pity. I'll take Redi+ over Hammer.

I agree with you about AT by the way.
