Please continue the personal attacks and free psychiatric consuling. I asked you a very simple question, what is your name? Instead, you give a bunch of psychobabble that shows how you tried to avoid my repeated first question. MB Trading is a branch of Terra Nova. When the MB Trading boys go on their own, I would not have a problem. Until then, I am posting my comments on this thread regarding what I know about Terra Nova. I notice however, that you have recently taken your same comments and spam them on other threads at SI. For what it is worth to the other readers of this thread, I do not live my life scared of looking over my shoulder, or that some scumbag will sue me for my net worth. I have balls, something that is a personality trait you overlooked in your psychiatric analysis; my balls are what kept me alive during my military flying days. Or standing in trading pits over the years. I know what the truth is, and so do many other individuals. The truth has already caused ARCA to be rapidly dropped by other traders before I even made my first post on SI. Another truth is that RealTick is a program that traders like, but $10. at JPR Trading is a lot better than $22+ at MBT to use the same program, and to have the same clearing firm, Southwest. Or that MBT used to show the Island book, but now does not. Below I have pasted this post from a trader who talks about the decline in ARCA; this was on the short term #1 day traders site the final frontier

Funk,
I believe in this forum, the only responses anyone would care to validate would be Fane Lozeman's or Jerry Putnum's. Who cares what you and I think. To date, only Fane has documented everything he has "posted." Therefore, until Jerry responds in kind, I think its best for the rest of us (bystanders as we may be) to listen and reserve judgement.
This isn't a personal attack against anyone or an effort to take sides. The one thing we can do as traders is be candid with one another and without the hype, personal attacks and other irrelevant crap.
I have found ARCA's service to have degraded quite rapidly over the last year. Hell, I was one of the biggest ARCA fans out there. I thought it was awesome ( KEYWORD: WAS ). Now, its like molasses...just plain sucks. There's too many old ARCA players switching over to Cyber, ABWatley, and other places for electronic trading. Places that
offer choices of multiple ECNs. Friends and I that have used ARCA now rarely use that button any longer. Until whatever problems ARCA has are rectified, I wouldn't be surprised to see continuing declines in total trading volume on TNTO. Happy Holidays.
Regards,
