I read about Infinity AT platform somewhere in TL and I signed up for the simulator. I have to say, the platform was great and the service was great. I emailed to enquire about margin and commission and they called me immediately. However I'm concern about the execution. I'm a dax trader and a scalper. Execution is the most important for me. Anybody who is currently using Infinity service, can you give an overview for Infinity in comparison with other broker in terms of execution, commission, etc? I really love the platform anyway. Thanks.

Platform is great - top notch. So is execution.

Broker service is WYSIWYG.

Cooter, can you make any recommendations of whom to deal with? PM is OK.

I sent you a PM.

I find the whole idea of an "assigned broker" a bit creepy. I prefer the interactive brokers style where you can anonymously make a million or blow your account without worrying about someone looking over your shoulder.

Setup of available contracts and trading months shouldn't be a difficult task as well, but apparently you have to "request" what contracts you want to trade and have those "approved" and setup on your account by the broker, instead of just picking whatever you want and setting it up yourself, as you go.

When you don't have the freedom, flexibility and choice of choosing what to trade whenever you wish, it can hamper your ability to manage and execute your trading plan effectively.

I agree with you guys, I don't like having to ask permission to trade something. I guess some brokers just prefer to keep tabs on you, but it can be a pain in the butt.

I've recently began discussions with Open ECry and I must say, I am impressed thus far for a futures broker. Very accommodating and willing to get your business. There's something to be said about being able to work with a smaller firm that has the ability to do what it takes (w/in reason) to get your biz. I'd suggest at least contacting OEC if you are in the market for a broker.

Ditto. I'll post my comments about Open E Cry on another thread, so we can keep this one open for comments about Innfinity and Transact.
