By the way, I have used Lind-waldock for several months now and are getting pretty disappointed lately regarding their on line execution time, especially after they 'upgraded' to a new server.

You are not the only one that has noticed the speed decline. I have switched to using the "blue screen" version but even that has become slow lately. I have waited 15 sec. or long after pressing send to see a market order go through and even longer on a limit order. Very frustrating since they were incredible quick when I first started trading with them. The "online" version is useless for trading at this point.

Best Regards
KEITH

I'm down in Florida, David, and don't have access to my usual machines with sites on them.

But if you are trading the mini you might as well use a firm that trades electronically.

From what I understand from a guy at Rosenthal-Collins down here, they all do it the same way so it's just a question of price.

The best price I've heard of is around $13 a round turn. For E-Mini I use a firm that clears through LLG for 19 or 20 dollars. But like I say, I understand it does not matter which you use.

If you remind me when I get back I'll try to find the one that does it for $13. I'll be active again on Tuesday.
