I dumped ZAP futures when my broker informed me that I would have to monitor
my e-mail all day in order to know when LEO web was down. I asked the simple
question if I am checking my e-mail every minute when will I have time to
trade? I have since moved my account to PMB (Professional Market Brokerage)
and I am very pleased with their performance.
