Does anyone have any experience with RTD Realtime Trading Desktop for options trading? Any thoughts would be appreciated.

RTD was primarily used by heavy options traders and many that were making markets. RTS was bought by Bloomberg so I am not sure if the product has been update since then or not. RTD was always very powerful yet not that intuitive to use.

Hope this helps.
 
Do you know if RTS was updating and investing in their options market making platform prior to the Bloomberg deal?
