Reliable Broker for Eminis?

[lmn]

Hi,

Can you please recommend a reliable broker for trading eminis?

Basically I am looking for a broker which meets the following criteria:

1. It is reliable;
2. It has fast trade execution;
3. It charges acceptable commissions;
3. It is suitable for a day trader like me who day trades eminis with limited intraday trades. i.e. I do 3 to 6 trades per day on average.

Please recommend one besides IB. I have tried IB's application process a number of times, and am fed up with it.

Thanks indeed.

along the same lines, are there any IB competitors out there with a comparable api

If you are excluding IB, then try MB Trading - http://www.mbtrading.com

Their commissions are comparable (lower actually).

and yes, they have an API.
