>>> Most broker's system's are setup to stop you from screwing up. Unfortunately some trades still get screwed up anyways. That's usually when your broker will get a call from another MM asking him what the @!$#% he's doing. Brokers don't like to be embarrassed this way so avoid screwing up at all costs;)) <<< Irby could you elaborate?

Irby, Sorry it took me so long to answer as I find it difficult to keep up with this thread and the "daytrading tricks of the trade" thread. Most of us in my room were using Castle when they first came out. I dont know what their service is like now.....but we all decided to change after a few problems. We moved to AB and found the service much better than anything we had previously tried. We could consistently get between bid and ask, execution was quick and price reasonable. We are now moving to MB Trading, as I feel that the overall package is better, in my opinion. The software is the same as AB but there seems to be less "down time". I am not sure if their connection is better or why that seems to be true but down time has been reduced by a huge percentage for me. The News service offered by MB is very nice. In addition, the tech support is super. They are friendly, informative and helpful. The sliding price scale is nice also. They offer a variety of pricing levels depending on how many trades you execute each month. Check out their web site. I find this service superior to anything else I have tried in the past. Good Luck Ken mtrader.com
