RealTick and Redi are decent standard platforms.
no clusterf...ck look like TT or J-Trader or others... standard L2 type order entry boxes, tight and compact.
most of the stock platforms will offer or already offering SSF and e-futures.
redi especially is attractive because they have a simple free API and the
platform is free, SLK / GS owned company, so they are here to stay.
i hope TS goes the same route in 7.0. L2 box to Globex, intelligent routing,
synthetic market and stops, resting stops, autoexecution, one click bid,ask,hit,take...
TOS window and they will capture the market share,
***there is no need to invent anything for TS, just take the best of what's out there
and incorporate it in...
bilo.

I've traded Real Tick on the NAS and S&P eminis extensively through Terra
Nova. Execution was fast and you could hit the bid or ask easily during day
sessions and see the level II down 5 levels (that's all you get from the
exchange). Of course in the late night sessions liquidity was a problem but
that wasn't a function of the platform, it was the market. I didn't see any
real problem. It has been a few months since I've done this, so there may be
changes since.

what i meant buy liquidity is the execution part of the simulation process,
not
the depth of the market simulation, that's a given...
it may be beneficial when developing systems based on depth of the market
or timing simulation but not the execution part, unless you tell me that
they
do simulation liquidity when executing... which i doubt ( which is the main
thing ).
anyhow, timing is always secondary to execution, right so...
TT is just a terminal as one should be, that's why it's common at the
board...
do i need it for systematic trading. i don't think so. but i will take it if
they give it away...
but i am not going to drool on it...
700 per month maybe nothing for a market maker and a board member but for an
average joe futures
trader it maybe 1/2 of a monthly profit :-)
so if TS allows an average joe trader to trade globex ( in real time ) and
autoexecute like TT can...
then it's goooood...
is there anybody making european futures markets on the west cost or in tex
:-) ???
anybody on this quiet list using TT???
realtick?
redi?
j-trader?
custom pats app?
TS?
some unknown killer app???
Internet Explorer?
calling your broker?
let's see what 7.0 has to offer in march, shall we?
