as far as i understand it your orders on datek never encounter a man in the loop

all orders are routed directly to ISLD an exchange or sent off to hit an MM

unfortunately it appears that the technical staff managing datek's internal network doesn't feel the need to upgrade their infrastructure to accomodate the inflow of new users

better ways to spend the money no doubt - possibly on fat bonuses, fast cars, big houses, wine, women and song while we the users get a kick in the pants

it appears that datek's management has no pride in its services and as a consequence you have "silly fast" servers that execute trades poorly

who knows - maybe datek's technical staff had the mother of all interactive Doom tournaments scheduled for this week and we get whatever spare bandwidth is available

it appears that one of datek's managerial priorities is not to provide timely executions

please excuse my venting
