    Cybertrader's platform including Level II was the closest to perfection any trader could ask for. Probably no longer after their integration with Schwab.

    I looked into CyberTrader. Their commission is $9.95 per trade!
    Way, way too much for me. I currently pay only .01 cent per share with MB trading and have recently opened an account with Interavtive Brokers which is only .005 Cent per share. So if I trade 300 shares in and out, It only cost me $1.50 total.
    Compared to $19.90 with Cybertrader. This is a no brainer no matter what the platform.

    IB recently bought Futuretrade which has a professional platform like realtick/lightspeed/etc.

    According to news reports, once the integration is completed in a few months, all ib customers will have access to the new platform.

    The FutureTrade platform complements IB’s facilities and accordingly, when the two platforms are fully integrated, all facilities of both platforms will be available to all customers,” Peterffy said.


    This is very interesting
