Hi Gerald,

Yes. Good people. Better than LeoWeb in the sense that it checks multiple
channels to execute your trade, one of which is TOPS/Cubs. If TOPS and/or
Cubs is down, they route it another direction so that you get your desired
execution as efficiently as possible, given the current situation. FTG is
part of the Professional Services Division of Rosenthal Collins Group, who
created the E-Futures software and take responsibility for it and the
executions and don't pass the buck.

This system is efficient enough that you can use market orders to get in and
out of the market instead of having stops and/or limit orders in the market
and wondering if you get filled or not. The ideal set-up is to have one
computer with TradeStation and another computer connected to the internet
with E-Futures on it. As you anticipate a buy order setting up on TS, you
can have everything set up for a market order buy on E-Futures (acct. #,
contract,  # contracts, Buy). As soon as your TS trigger hits, you just hit
enter on E-Futures, your order is in the market and you get a fill within 30
seconds, with your fill coming back as they get that work executed, usually
within a minute. Then you setup E-Futures for the sell to exit when your
system tells you to, and just hit the enter key at the right time. Using
this method, you get timely executions and you don't have the stress of
wondering whether your stops or limits got executed properly.

You can call them at 800-749-3455. Ask for Daniel Bardol or Bruce Serra.
Please tell them I sent you. I don't have any financial interest in their
company, just would like them to know where their referrals are coming from.

Hope this helps.

Neil
