J-Trader $4.80 Round Turn

Quote from MarkHyman:



Eurex: Schatz $3.20
Bobl $3.20
Bund $3.20
Dax $3.90
Dj Euro Stoxx $3.50

Great... lower than IB's 4 euros round-trip. What are the rates for Eurex futures with Strategy Runner platform? Why don't you advertise them on the website?
 
Mark:
I think this offer is a smart move on the part of the broker. There are a lot of folks over at IB who have been waiting for an alternative. If you can make a go of it on the cash flow side, and deliver good service I am sure you will find this brings in a substantial number of traders, not only from IB, but from Tradestation and others as well. I'm not anxious to start filling out all that paper work again, but I'll be considering it as well. Best Regards, Steve46
 
Can someone who is familiar with both J-trader and IB's TWS provider a comparison of the two trading platforms?

Also, can someone who is familiar with both Advanced Futures and IB provide a bigger picture comparison of the two firms in terms of services offered?

Thanks.

Mark,



What are the differences between

the webbased and standalone J-trader

in terms of speed and reliability ?





Virgin.

Has anyone used both the Java and standalone version of J-Trader that would care to comment on any preference between them.
 
I've used both the java and standalone version. I will only use the standalone version. The java version seemed to me to be much slower. I also had some issues with the java version where it would just hang up, after troubleshooting for some time with the broker they finally gave me the standalone version. I've been happy with the standalone version ever since.
 
Mark,

Can customers deposit/withdraw funds to and from AF by electornic ACH transfer?

What are the fees for incoming/outgoing wire transfers?

When Eurex US launches on February 1, 2004, I hope AF rates for 'elitetraders' for Eurex US, will stay competitive with those of IB?

Are there surcharges for using order desk to exit positions during a system failiure?

I suppose the standalone J-trader supports SSF trading? How much is the total commissionfor for buying/selling 1 SSF contract with AF?
 
Quote from m618:

Thanks Mark.

A few more questions:

1. Does your firm pay interest on funds on deposit?

2. Are funds on deposit held in segregated accounts, and are these deposites insured in any way?

3. Are there any inactivity fees?

4. Are there any other charges or fees we should be aware of? I believe the answer is no, but I just want to be sure.

Thanks.

I would like these answered too.

Thanks.

If the above are positive (and competitive), I am willing.

I wonder what IB's response will be (if any)?
