hi guys, anyone got any suggestions for a good, solid firm that meets the following requirements:
* remote trading
* fasssst execution platform (i'm a microscalper)
* stable and RELIABLE software
* ECN rebates for adding liquidity
* access to all major ECNs (BRUT,ARCA,ISLD,ATTN,INCA)
* competitive commission structure/ticket charges. currently I am writing between 500-1000 tickets/month but would probably write more if my platform & fee structure was better.
* mostly concerned with great order entry (hotkeys,etc) but some charting and hotlists (gap up/down/top volume/etc) would be nice
i'm currently trading retail using Realtick and I kind of think it sucks to tell you the truth... very slow to come out with updates (they STILL don't let you put in 1/10 of a penny orders on ECNs for example 5.042) and the software frequently stalls etc.
right now Andover, BrightTrading and ECHOtrade seem like decent choices but I am looking for (unbiased) 2nd opinions... thanks!
