Brokers that don't have T+3 settlements

Can anyone name a few brokers that don't make you wait for the funds to settle before you reinvest that money? Are there also brokers that have a shorter settlement date ie one or two days?

You need a margin account in order to have immediate use of the proceeds from sale of securities. It is against the law for the brokerage to do otherwise.

Oh no... I meant with margin. I emailed MB and they said you have to wait even with a margin account...

What the hell?

I never heard of a broker making you wait 3 days to use proceeds from sales in a margin account.

To answer your question: ANY broker besides the one you're currently using is fine.
 
So only in cash accounts are the T+3 settlement rule... but usually with margin accounts there isn't a settlement date you have to wait for?
 
The only Settlement date you have to wait for in a Margin account is the one related to you withdrawing funds from your account....

Not to trade with.
