Jigsaw Trading Platform

IB is a burst feed of 4x second and not a tick feed, IB's feed is even slightly delayed if I compare it to other feed providers, that makes the DOM on book trader impossible to use compared to what you can see on TT price ladder with time and sales next to it.

I guess if you don't know what you're doing that all is good then. Carry on with ya free IB tools then.
 
There is advantage to the way Ib does it. During periods of heavy volume there are no delays like TT.
Also if trading manually, you can not see the difference.

I've always wondered about IB's sampled feed.
I guess if your ATIT (avg time in trade) is a minute or more, it probably doesn't have that negative of an impact.

It's clear you have never worked with X-trader from TT. Delays from X-trader compared to that piece of crap Booktrader is from IB? You are joking, are you?

If you put them next to each other you will see a considerable difference.

If the above is true, then any order flow trading software would not be a good fit.

If DOM trading attracts your interest, Jigsaw offers great value both in the software and their educational resources.

The amount of responses you are receiving has little to do with the effectiveness you personally can achieve with any tool.

Putting aside their educational resources, what makes Jigsaw materially different for a Futures day trading? Seems to me as long as your platform offers

  • Clean interface
  • API access (If required)
  • Market access to the symbols you want
  • Server Side Conditional orders
  • Allow for multi-monitor configuration
  • Good, fast charting
  • Good customer support

The rest is dependant on your strategy vs the software.

Well done....this is a good set of criteria to consider.
