请教：DT作ES期货的话，哪个broker大家觉得比较好

shyla

投入不多，大概20K的样子，忙的时候可能几天一trade，闲的时候一天可能也就3-5trade的样子。

这种情况的话，大家觉得哪个broker比较合适呢？ 谢谢！

Agree, same feature as NinjaTrader, and it's free for clients.

我的IB到了晚上就有连接问题
几个 data store总是时断时续的
如果我ping, 比如说mktgw1.ibllc.com
packet drop rate 可以达到40%
但我在那个时刻换个地方ping，就是好的
如果我reset cable modem后也能好
但我打开TWS转一会儿，就又开始 drop ping packet了
如果不转TWS，可以一直ping下去也不出什么问题
我感觉有个地方在throttle the traffic

麻烦再请问一下 Ppteam，这两家各自有什么长处呢？

No， I am not against IB. I feel IB is a must no matter if you want to open another account for future or forex.

I am thinking if it is a comcast problem.

谢谢，因为看到前面 Ppteam 说的，再结合你分享的经验，我还以为是IB平时的连接有问题。

you will have no problem with any of brokers above based on your needs.
start to focus on how to trade when the account is ready. don't waster time on choose brokers. :)

This is a known problem. I believe IB has a maintenance window around the midnight, usually it lasts 5-15 mins.

Those 2 are almost the same.
Commission wise, Ampfuture is the same as IB, Mirus is slightly cheaper. Mirus uses ZenFire, but it's not expensive at all.
Ampfuture day trade margin is $400, Mirus is $500.
Ouch, take care of risk control yourself.


Like Javamood pointed out, I got connectiveity problem with IB almost every night.
