Why does x-trader offer an edge over other platforms in terms of execution?
 
But it would be nice if VF could offer a fast and stable platform without a monthly fee.
Maybe VF could get a deal like $0.25 per side for REFCO PRO.
 
My comparison:
TWS: Cheap with user friendly APIs. Good for starting traders, but lacks personal service. How long do you have to wait to place an order over the phone?
J-trader: Old technology based on MS JVM, API not easily available. Let's wait and see the next generation: TradeMark from Pats.
X-trader: Expensive, You may have to pay a monthly fee, API not easily available.
EasyScreen: It's new, looks good with APIs. But Refco seems the only major broker that has adopted it. If more brokers adopt it, it will likely become a major player.

Reasons to go for X-trader are:

-VF charging $150 less than regular rate $650
that most brokerage charge.

-You need to pay 250$ for extra exchange, but you can
trade as many market you want if you don't have them
open simultaneously, so i don't think anyone need to
trade three market at a time and that will cost you:
$500 (plateform charge+ 1 exchange free) + 250$ extra exchange= $750 Total

-VF are very clear about their commision rates for each
different markets, as it is published in their website, so
there will be less gimmick.

-X trader has fix charge per monthe, which is much better
than "per side charges" thisway you will benifit as if your
volume increase.


Actualy i am not trading with them yet, but might open
account with them.
 
with 700 or 800 r/ts a month like I do, its much less expensive to go with FFastFill than velocity. there rates are not that good. and the platform is every bit as good. and then there is Transact that you have to consider. Even less expensive.

I've tried the demo of FFast long time ago, it's not as good as J-trader. FFast is based on Citrix, which is old technology.
