Jay,
Block has a lot of locations throughout the country... haven't been to any of theirs yet but here's their website blocktrading.com
GoTrading has 7 locations in L.A and a couple in Houston and are expanding into S.Forida.I just came back from L.A. and was in their offices for a few days doing a little research myself.They use TRADECAST software which is fairly simple to use,lines up all the MM's,lot of color coating to help you,and Time of Sales so you see the prints. website at gotrading.com
Broadway Securities in connection somehow with Datek Securities have offices in N.Y. and Florida and maybe other places.I visited their Florida location the other day { Boca Raton } they use a software system called the "Watcher" it's a dos-based system but the screen is broken down into about 5 or 6 sections or frames,and you can track a lot of things that way, it's very fast being dos-based and not loaded down by Windows, didn't like that it didn't have Time of Sales and they have another machine with some software called insight,insight gives you a lot of data.Didn't like that they said, okay, put up $70,000 and come trade.Is $70 a problem.Probably not,but I'd have to eliminate most of my positions.Immediately he said, we'll make an exception, how about $60.Thought I was buying a used-car.They do have an extensive training program in N.Y, $600 if you open an account $1200 if you don't.Phone number in N.Y 212-378-4000
Harbor Securities... am visiting their Ft.Lauderdale site today.will let you know, they use Real Tick and give you 10/1 margin,good and bad to 10/1, here's their locations daytrading.net
Good luck
