I have been trying to find the right combo of quotes and executions.
Currently I have Signal's stock edge, used to be signal lite and use Etrade direct, not thru the web too slow. I have just opened an account ($20,000 min.) with castleonline.com and got my first look at Level II. I am in the process of learning how to use it and am so far very impressed with the people and the fact that real time is free and Level II is $150 a month. More importantly, you have execution access through an integrated platform to SOES, selectnet and ECNs. My concern is that it is internet based although large traders get a better dial in option. What is the concern expressed with the JB Oxford connection i saw someone mention?

I am investigating The Traders Club ( 1-888-925-5789) and Power Trader (1-888-923-1663). Because most of my money is in a self directed IRA I have ruled out the Watcher and Harvey Houtkins Attain system.

Level II is a real eye opener and NOT available on BMI /Signal or DTN. Elsewhere Level II ranged from 350-500 $ per month JUST for quotes.

Castle, so far is the best deal I have found. I will report back on how well it works. It appears , sofar. to be real elegant and fast. What good is real time quotes level II or not with out good execution ?

I also understand that you can place orders one half hour b4 and after closing on selectnet !! I can't wait to try it.

BTW signal and BMI are owned by DBC and still can't get their products together, IMHO.
