Quote from Aok:

Dont trade with Refco, but its CQGtrader which works with many brokers.

Software + order entry. Fast. Rock solid. Expensive. Limited futures exchanges. No equities. Not quite as good as Xtrader. Close.

Call Mike at CQG at bug him for stock exchange connectivity. And HKFE as well.

Refco is now part of Man Financial, Refco charges an extra $25 for the CGQ enrty platform.

Quote from mower:

They have CQG Trader at Alaron Trading Corp.

I like the firm, might want to check them out. They send checks the next day and you get them in 3 - 4 days.

What are you paying per side for electronic and pit traded futures.

There are 3 versions of CQG.

1)Software/CQG data
2)CQG Trader
3)Integrated. Software AND front end

You may as well have CQG data/software if you're going to use CQG Trader. But if you trust your brokers data then Trader front end is not bad. Take the demo from CQG site.

Otherwise CQG trader is similar to what NT can do.

I've used it for a few years and it's a great platform. Caveat: I'm a position trader, so I have no need for millisecond speed or too many bells.

I like the platform and the fact that with REFCO you can trade via the software platform and the website. Also you get access to pit products.

I heartily recommend the product to position traders. As I do not know the needs of day traders. I can't comment on that market segment.
