The Datek executions should be the equal to the tradestations, but usually they are not even close.

Hoping you take this post towards improving your product rather than arguing its validity, it would be refreshing.

LEVEL7, Thank you for your excellent post, you are indeed a humanitarian.

My big question is WHY doesn't Datek management allow their people to produce the kind of quality systems that you are talking about? Those other companies have shown it can be done AND most don't have one-tenth the financial resources as Datek.

Upon reflection, I've come up with only two possibilities. One, they are incompetent. Two, it somehow serves Datek's own best interest. Although there is substantial and credible information in support of the first, it stretches credulity for one to assert that it the entire explanation.

Does anyone have any ideas on how this serves Datek's own best interest to have their systems operate as they do?

If so, post here.
