OX - application based.

At first sight, the favorite trading platform seems to be: IOX Millenium from Vision (can't find the link, orionfutures.com, used by Orion Futures among others: orionfutures.com

In fact, I am in the process of selecting a futures broker.
First went to smotass.net
Parsed the page into an Excel sheet and started surfing around.
Goals:
1- find the d@## clearing houses (only way to have RT access to your port and margin calculation).
2- an application based platform (IP level 3 has better conectivity than browser based systems)
3- a broker accepting T-Bills as margin collateral
4- an access to RTH and ETH: is a closing order at 04:16 pm ET MOC or ETH ? Both SP e-Minis and Nasdaq e-Minis (not evident).
5- a clear commission schedule: per side/ per round trip? with or without hard fees ($1.3 to $2.3 something per side).
6- waddabout daytrading: heard that some halve the SNAP margin requirement (not found yet)
7- waddabout phone orders when the web fails?

Already asking too much here. But still looking for online contigency orders (close stop, close limit, OCO)
