I don't think I'll ever get to that Robbins Cup, I'm happy with what I have. Moving stuff around again is a pain. I do not use eSignal nor DTN so I imagine I may have to phone in orders. Over time the online trade has become too appealing.

No big deal anyway. I cannot even find current standings, last I heard a friend of a friend is leading and he hasn't made a trade since June. I think he had a 384% increase. I wonder what a good initial account size would be.

More surprising to me than BestDirect on ISpec's site is IB. I thought Teresa traded large contracts, not e-minis/n-minis.

some IBs credit you some bucks at each RT and you can use that credit to pay for the datafeed.

Man had something like that a few years back. If I traded 30 a month (I think) I would be able to use a box of some sort that they would supply, trading through that. I imagine that's gone, since Leo started up who would need another device on their desk.

The number of contracts I trade includes all markets, by the way. So for example even if I had an InteractiveBrokers account I would have to maintain another account for the other roughly 30%, 40% of my trades.
