I am having trouble with my brokers online order entry platform

I trade with the biggest. man financial.
however, its is suprising that their order entry web page is so outdated. they have something called "mtrade"
I complained about it for years and they always tell me "they are working on it" their system hasn't changed since they started it. i included a pic of what they have.
i do day trading and the problem i am having is when i enter trades i need the order entry page to be on lower part of the screen so i can just enter the order quickly without having to close a window . it also always asks me to confirm after i click on the order button. all this takes time and in a business where you need speed its not working for me.
can anyone recommend a type of system or brokerage firm that will allow me to have a smaller faster online order entry system where the order entry can be on the same window or just overlap the chart window so i can place my trades easier and faster as well as with no confirm window having to open again?
thanks.

Why do you trade with MF Global? Sure they may be the biggest, but I'd probably guess Interactive Brokers is cheaper and more reliable.
