If I come straight to the point, sending orders along the same freeways, through the traffic jams, arounds the roadworks that peole are sending pictures of nude women and the like just is not suitable nor compatible with the needs for speed,reliabilty et al required by sophisticated day traders, traders and active investors using high end high speed electronic execution technologies.
