Hi Friends,

I'm new to SC and I love it so far. I've made my decision to use SC to autotrade.
So, I have to move my account from TD Ameritrade.
I primarily trade Crude(CL), Ultra TBonds (UB) at New York open (when market moves at blazing fast rate :-)).
I do occasionally trade Sugar, Live cattle in AM and Nikkie in the evening.

Can you suggest a good broker for SC with happy medium between reliable data, speed, fills and commissions?
I've gone through long list of available brokers, I have found only couple of them providing unfiltered ticks.



Thanks

Thanks Tran. I have contacted them.
One of my shortlist is deepdiscounttrading. Howard responded promptly and explained things well.

I was scared when I saw Sierra Futures, TradeFutures4Less, eminifuturesbroker: all three having same support (skype: futures_broker --> goes to a guy called Prathik Patel). So, I've scratched them off from my list even though they offer lower rates.

I'm also considering AMP. They takes 2 days to respond to my inquiry about commissions, buy they offer wider selection of integration.

I ended up going with deepdiscount.
His service is great.
But Crossland messed up account setup a lot and took for ever, almost a week.

ive been with deep discount trading for quite a while now. I clear with CTS, which is the most expensive (extra 50 cents turn) but that combination has given me rock solid high speed data on crude, which is what i need to see. I tried all three data vendors and that one was the best, which is why its also more expensive :) if you want a good crude feed, check it out, ive been very happy.
