My clients have had good luck with Advantage, Crossland, Kottke, Dorman, RCG, RJ O'Brien.
The big Chicago firms that do not prop trade and know how to correctly margin a spread position.
Because you should be spreading stock index futures.

Hi,
Which one of these firms have a platform that would enable one to chart spreads ? Is there any advantage to their platforms over esignal ....

Your charting services provider is different than your clearing firm which is ( typically ) different than your execution platform in the world of futures.
In other words, it might be possible to clear Advantage Futures, chart your spreads with eSignal, and execute them using CTS T4.

Ok I see.... Thanks for the info... I'm actually using esignal and ib right now and spreading some index futures but was thinking of switching to a futures broker and keeping ib for equities.
Thinks again....

I use Vision Financial Markets and Sierra Charts.
Do you have any issues trading futures with IB? The reason I ask is I am considering opening an account there for the diversity of products and exchanges offered (specifically options on equities and futures, spot forex, ETFs, and international exchanges).
Unfortunately IB seems to be the broker everyone loves to bash so I have been thinking long and hard.
