    Which is better for trading stocks? MB, TD or IB?

    HI,

    I am considering using MB trading, TD Ameritrade, or IB brokers to trade stocks.

    Any suggestions are appreciated, as to which one is better.

    ALSO:
    Is there much automated trading stocks at IB?

    I'm worried about the fills.
    Which one guarantees BEST fills with a large volume like 10,000 shares?

    One of the brokerages I was using was watching my stops. As soon as I entered them, they were taken out...always at the worst time. As soon as I hid them, no more trouble.
    With Ninja, you can hide your stops, which is critical.

      How important is data fidelity to you? For certain, MBTrading provides unfiltered data, and IB provides snapshot data. I am not certain what TDAmeritrade provides. Snapshot data is pretty much useless for scalping, marginal for swing-style day trading, and passable for normal swing trading or long-term investing. Find out what kind of feed TDA provides, and let these factors guide your decision.
