Anyone with Lightspeed as a broker? Apparently they don't take Canadian clients due to regulations.. but that problem aside I was hoping to hear people's experiences with them as a substitute to a prop firm. Before stumbling upon their site, I was looking at InteractiveBrokers as a retail alternative.. but Lightspeed seems to be cheaper for what I trade (ETFs on AMEX.) How's the platform? How's execution?
Hang in there Jack surely somebody will come along soon with some firsthand experience. It's a good valid question. I too am subscribed to the thread. I've never traded ETFs but i wonder if it might fit you to have a Schwab account where you could trade Schwab ETFs for free. Just a thought. Me, I'm an old, slow poke and i use Ameritrade and have a special half price deal there so I'm pretty happy with it. But Lightspeed looks interesting. I look forward to reading the info.
Lightspeed was the best system i have ever uses. Anvil was very good as well but i liked LightSpeed because it had less bells and whistles making nit more simplistic.
