I'm used to IB, but I was thinking of giving Ninja Trader brokerage a try. Any opinions?

Do you currently use NT to trade?
No, I just use IB's book trader.
Oh, ninjatrader is only for windows, so, never mind.
and HIGHLY unreliable for real-time trading. You should feel highly blessed that you are using non-Windows.
Ninjatrader is unreliable, the software, the brokerage, or both?

If you're a Mac user looking for a new front end to your IB account, you should check out MotiveWave.

Another option for Mac users is the thinkorswim platform from TD Ameritrade, but that requires a TDA brokerage account.

Yeah, I like thinkorswim, but their commissions are high. I do use their charts though. Their margin for the ES is even higher than IB's as well.
