Equity Scalping Software

Quote from billp:

bitstream,

Some more questions. Is IB time and sales reliable? Do they lump size together on the tape? Do they have missing prints (ie no prints for a couple of seconds to a few minutes as Esignal tends to have)? Also do they have false spikes?

thanks

yes, there are missin' prints but only for what concerns bid/ask not last sale...overall ib t&s is pretty much reliable. false spikes are on charts not on the tape, and size is not lumped together; even if more than 1 trade goes trough at the same time [second], every transaction is printed seperately.
 
Could someone advice the software with easy to use API or embedded programming language ? something like tradestation?
(for eqity scalping needs, so it should be fast platform)
thanx
Alex
