Good job, Jeb.

That's a major red flag.

They sell their order flow to one firm rather than several, but what does that mean for a small trader? (Serious question, not being a smart alec. I trade mostly futures and futures options so the fine details of the stock market are not my thing)

Let's say the little guy uses only limit orders for stocks and stock options. With NBBO, is he really going to be hurt, and hurt on a consistent basis?
 
I think it's practically internalization. So NBBO is just for show on your screen and there really is no routing. Anybody , pls correct me if I am wrong.

Even with options, your a guppy between 2 sharks. Man, I really would have like that discounted esignal. However, a guy like me selling a 1-10 lot with 45dte. Does it matter? not sure. Day trades definitely.
 
So far....
No Downloads are needed.
The tradier api is detailed and documented.
Streaming is new.
$3.5 per order is reasonable.
I will post after I develop further.
