Stock Trading Tower

Recommended Posts

Does anyone use a good broker for stock trading that has a tower setup for the order managing similar to infinity futures' tower. Reasonable commissions would be a plus but I am mostly interested in a good order system with "drag and move" function for stop loss positioning. Intuitive and simple flow with a solid set of auto order functions.

 

I keep missing out on additional profits on my stock trades because of my broker's poor ordering system. Let me know if that is an adequate description of what I am looking for. Any advice would be appreciated.

 

Cheers.

Not sure 100% but I recall Cybertrader being a platform that covers equities that would fit your needs. Charles Schwab now owns them so would check up on it.

 

Didn't Tradestation provide equities as well?

IB and tradestation do provide stock trading. I haven't tried either yet but I thought there might be someone out there that trades stocks and has some great things to say about some particular order system, in which case I would try that one first.

 

I will look into cybertrader.

 

Here is a picture of the infinity order tower. It doesn't need to be exactly the same but this is the idea. To adjust the stop level you just drag the cell up or down.

The features of Infinity AT is available in most order routing platforms now. The only difference I have seen is that some order management vendors provide different order types or Smart Orders. For example. CQG's price ladder can provide order types not supported by the exchanges as the orders are placed on the CQG servers before going to the exchange. Smart Orders are available such as Icebergs as well. (CQG is only FX and futures)

 

Tradestation provided similar functionality from what I can recall. Also check out Barclays Stockbrokers.... they have some tools similar to what you might need as well.

Ah, I've always heard that kind of setup referred to as a "DOM" (depth of market) or "ladder". Off the top of my head, Tradestation, Ninja, X Trader, Buttontrader, Sierra (only attached to charts though), and CQG have something similar to that.

 

Edit: Think or Swim also has a feature like this.

I missed noting one important attribute. I need the broker to be web based. I only need them for order entry and order management. Not for charting or research. I can't download software on my work computer. I have looked into thinkorswim with high hopes but their interface is not good and totally not intuitive IMO. From my understanding IB, Tradestation, etc. are all platforms which need to be downloaded to function which would not work for me.

 

I guess I am looking for something similar to a TDameritrade or Scottrade except I was interested in the DOM/tower trading set up but maybe that is only available with software based brokers.

 

Sorry for forgetting the web based issue on my original post.

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful.
