I'm sure a similar order execution API is available directly with ARCA. As you probably know, ARCA has superior order execution over the other ECN's. Probably the best way to go is to use the RealTick API. You can get the best of ALL worlds. Most of my RealTick trades are less that 250ms as well.

Yes - you need to test code running with Real Tick. I successfully brought down the TAL Server once by running some code. Thankfully, it was after market hours. Also hooked a Townsend server to Excel via DDE link. Very handy for writing small utils to help you watch the market.

Terra Nova Institutional has developed an application to enter orders from the Excel link in RealTick. The following link should be a great place to start, http://www.terranovainstitutional.com/download/tntinstitutional.zip. Start off by reading the two word documents from the link and then you can view a sample Order Entry interface. If you need more assistance or would like more information, please let me know and I will have one my associates become available for assistance.

Michael, that link is dead. Do you have an updated link?
 
The link is not dead - but the browser considers the dot after zip (".....zip.") as part of the adress and you have to delete it.

I know eFloorTrade can do it on the futures side. Maybe they can give you someone on the equities side that can help you out.

When you use the REDFIX API, you can go directly to ARCA,REDI, ISLD or INCA-not just ARCA. Depending on your trading(Baskets, systems trading etc.), you can program in an individual ECN or program in each ECN as part of your strategy(ECN arb as an example). If you use ARCA or REDI, which are pro-active ECN's, you could only use that ECN since it will seek another ECN or MM. I would disagree with you the ARCA is the fastest ECN as far as speed. I would give that edge to ISLAND , followed by REDI, ARCA & INCA. I think there is still some confusion when I say REDI. REDI is an ECN , REDI+ is a direct access order execution platform. REDIFIX is SLK's version of the FIX protocol for traders who want to connect via API to REDI in C++ or Visual basic. I'm not hyping REDIFIX, but many program traders and hedge funds are using REDIFIX for a very good reason, it's an excellent API . We are offering the same connection with our own FIX engine for the professional trader.
This setup requires some minimal programming, from our in house programmer. This is not hype and only for professional traders.
