Similar to what we are doing with FXCM and LMAX we are also going to be developing a complete solution with CTS T4 which will consist of the following:
-Sierra Chart
-Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed. So the data feed is provided by us and not by CTS. This gives us complete control over it and allows us to provide reliable service and address any issues directly when they arise.
-CTS order routing through a central FIX connection that we manage.
-Full server-side OCO and Bracket orders.
-Lower per contract fee instead of the usual $.50 a trade for CTS. This amount is paid through your broker and not Sierra Chart. Contact your broker for pricing. However, this is only available to retail traders.
-Support for multiple simultaneous connections.
-The CTS T4 front-end will be excluded but can be optionally used. The per contract fee will be higher though for those orders entered through the CTS T4 front-end.
-Use any broker or clearing firm that supports CTS. This is not exclusive to anyone.

The expected monthly cost will be about 10-12 USD a month in addition to the cost of the Sierra Chart Exchange Data Feed (required) and the cost of Sierra Chart itself. So this is not for everybody but it will be a solid solution. As we get more users using the solution, we expect the price of the data feed will come down.

When you consider the monthly fees from some services and the price of Sierra Chart which is about 25USD a month, this is a good offering.

As far as when this will be available, we hope it will be sometime in June.

Please do not ask us when the above CTS solution will be available because we cannot make a promise as to when and there could be unexpected complications preventing its release or it could be different than expected. Although we are determined to make this available in a reasonable amount of time.
