Can someone review Rapid Jet Trading http://www.rjt.com ? ? They have browser based execution ala DATEK and also has a JAVA Direct access platform that offers lightning fast executions at 5$+1cent/share. Maybe it can be a replacement broker for Tradescape or Interactivebrokers browser here to see the Java Platform: http://www.rjt.com/rapidjet_plus.html hsanson
I've been using RJT for about 3 months now and like it very much. Was using DATEK and had some things happen which I didn't like. Used both for awhile and found that for me RJT gave me good executions, and for $5, that isn't bad. Opening an account with Tradescape now to see how I like that. DJC
RJT.com has been added to the list of brokers that can be rated. DJC, if you could rate this firm officially, that would be very helpful. The link is: http://www2.elitetrader.com/br/index.cfm?action=rate&R_FirmID=108 Thanks, Baron
I stumbled upon this broker http://www.rjt.com and was wondering if anyone has an account with them? There Rapid Jet Plus and Jet Streamer look good for cheap, fast direct access excecutions. Their software looks cutting edge with WAP and PALM portals. I'm just wondering how reliable and fast the executions are and how solid is the company. Thanks for any comments.
I was browsing the company's site some more, and noticed they actually have a page documenting system outages. http://www.rjt.com/reliability.html Their system was down for 3 hours 30 minutes during the trading day on 1/25/2001 due to a datbase failure. Would be interestingn to see this info for other brokers. Keynote and Gomez have some performance measurements on availability and response time, but Keynote's list doesn't cover direct access brokers unfortunately. http://www.keynote.com/company/overview/public_services/web_broker/broker_index.html
