I use LFG for trading commodity futures and frequently experience trouble with
them along the same line you mentioned. Lost BIG in the yen last month when they
failed to fill a sell that went through on their software. I did not discover the
oversight until their midnight e-mail statement showed I was still in what I
thought was a closed position. I would be very interested in alternatives.
