What is your avg latency to your broker?

To place orders directly with an exchange (like NYSE) you either need sponsored access (someone to vouch for you) or you need to be an exchange member.

I don't know anything about other exchanges outside NYSE.

Other exchanges are the same. Most platforms use DMA through a member. Sponsored access is less common now with the new pre-trade checks.

From where to where? I am 50-70ms from Denver to Chicago on Comcast 12 down and 2 up. It's true its less secure but it is encrypted and the hackers don't want me they want bigger fish. A brokerage firm would use nothing less than DS3 or fiber.
 
I'm in Sao Paulo, Brazil. My cable connection does 155ms. I can upgrade the connection but it seems enough for all my purposes

Once the buffering and cache issues are sorted out it'll drop back down to a fraction of this.
