My broker's technology is letting me down on account of unacceptable unreliability and unavailability, and I want to find something better ...
The following brokers apparently integrate their technology with NinjaTrader:
- Interactive Brokers
- MB Trading
- Patsystems
- PFG (Peregrine Financial)
- TD Ameritrade
- Trading Technologies
- Vision Financial Markets
- Zen-Fire
I want to establish which broker technology is most RELIABLE from an automated trading standpoint.
- Is the technology always fully available during trading hours (04h15 - 20h00 EST, in my case) without downtime or server re-boots?
- Do technical issues with the broker's technology ever prevent your trading computer from taking trades, or cause it to miss set-ups?
- Do you find you are having to use "work arounds" to adapt your "ideal" trading scripts to what your broker's technology actually allows you to do in terms of order handling?
- Is your broker's technology good at dealing with multiple automated trade orders, all issued in a short time-frame? Or do orders regularly get "lost" ...?
If you also auto-trade, and execute these auto-trades through any of these brokers (with NinjaTrader), please share your views on the RELIABILITY of your broker's technology (from the standpoint of executing your auto-trades).
If you don't want to post your response to the forum, please feel free to message me directly in confidence ...
Thank you in advance.
