New To Futures

Any advice on brokers,trading platforms,charting software.

Currently day trading stocks with Scottrade Elite but they don't offer futures.

I plan on starting out with 1 to 3 contract lots a day and a few scalps a day with the ES.
 
From what I've seen, Velocity is good, Infinity is good, and Advantage is good. TransAct is good but I doubt with your volume you would want to use them directly. I opened a secondary account with Infinity over Velocity because I do light volume as well. Velocity is targeted more towards high volume traders. Infinity has been smooth so far and I can't confirm the last rating for them as I've had no fees charged. With your volume I would probably look at Infinity or Advantage.

Heard Mirus is ok but no ratings and I don't need NinjaTrader right now.
Open E Cry had to many issues in the ratings for me. I wan't a solid firm and platform I don't care about bells and whistles.
 
I trade futures with ninja trader and esignal for the feed, everythings works perfect.

instead of esignal you might want zen-fire data feed, i heard only good things about it.
