I like the Ultimate Trader better, its state of the art. I have 3 sets of streaming quotes and one I don't even utilize, but need for added brokerage, since sometimes one or another goes down. I know its not acceptable to buy/sell options at market but when you are so familiar with them and the gap is only about 1/2 to 3/4 point on the biggest nets, I take the chance. I got YHOO puts right when the nasdaq went into negative and it escalated in minutes, had I waited for a buy limit it would have passed me by. Yesterday I waited hours to get the QLGC options until finally I bought at the ask which was 5/8 more than the bid, no big deal, I might have missed it alltogether.
