This forum is to share insights and experiences with the developments in online trading the S&P and E-mini futures contracts. Who is providing services, how fast are these services, how does the software compare for order entry, fill confirmation, types of orders that can be placed, costs per transaction, delays in an active markets, mistakes, etc.

Currently I know of Zap futures, Professional marketting Brokerages, TFG - are there others?
