Is there an ordered list of Trading services ranked by quality of code performance (from a SC perspective)?

I notice that some don't implement your DTC protocol which you would prefer. Also, I read negative comments on some brokers like Rithmic and IB on the quality of their software and using their API services and the issues users are facing.

If you had a ranked list ordered by who you think are the best to the least best, that would be very helpful probably to myself and many others when deciding which service to use. Of course other factors come into play but this for me and probably many others would be a big part of the decision.

Thanks

No, we do not have this.

There is no reasonable way this can be done.Things can change over time, and each service has its own advantages and disadvantages.

While it can be frustrating for us to support Interactive Brokers when issues arise, they cover a wide array of exchanges and is really the only practical choice if someone needs to trade on an exchange they support and that exchange is not available elsewhere.

And it is not our position to be passing judgment unless there is a significant ongoing issue.

However, if you are trading futures, have a look at the new connection model for CTS:
