Hello,

Thank you for authorising my account. I have a question regarding the selection of one of your servers. As I am located in London, I have to live with the delays related to the distance to Chicago (1 roundtrip at least 100 msec). Is it preferable to select your server 2 (fast, in Chicago, but the slow bit is my internet connection to the server), or is it preferable to select your server 6 (in London, short hop from my location, but of course still the long distance to Chicago). I suppose that server 6 will be the better option for me especially if I want to use server-side OCO. It would be helpful to get some colour about the pros and cons of selecting different servers.

Thank you,
Beat

You will want to use Server 1 or Server 2. If you are trading CME group markets it normally will not make sense to use the London server.

The management of bracket orders and server-side OCOs is very safe on those first two servers.
