The firm I am employed at, experienced severe quote discrepancies today after the Fed made the decision to not hike up rates. Did anyone else suffer problems. If so what firm? It's becoming more apparent that speed and reliability in the technology we choose to trade with is the single most important tool every trader needs.

I was pissed today too J, in the span of 15 mins I threw away 75% of my day up to that point. I couldnt see anything (open book, ecns and quotes) were so spotty. It was a mess.
Everyone wants the cheapest commissions, everyone wants cheap ECN's, everyone wants no SEC fee's, everyone wants blah, blah, blah.
The single most important want for every successful trader should be a solid reliable system. Everything else is gravy.
FWIW, my system was great today (I'm on the Anvil).

Iam also on anvil and the whole firm" assent" had issues . I was in SHLD/ BIDU/OIH. Plus the indices were off for about an hr(5 min lag). When i called hoboken they didnt even realize it . All i said was look at cnbc. Anvil is a good system but everywhere had issues. Assent is a decent firm but what keeps me is there cheap tix. BTW when iam the one to point things out to them i sometimes feel iam at the wrong place around the wrong people.
