    I am currently back on redi, bc the helpdesk said it was more stable than inca currently. INCA had lots of probs premrkt. I have no idea how it is now b/c they dont seem to want to send out any update messages.

    YES, They implemented the siac feed for the internet today. There is a little improvment. Quotes seem a bit faster. But one day does is not that important, we need a month or so of good performance before I will be a believer.

  7. SIAC lines go down also, so don't expect flawless trading. ETG will probably be switching to it soon then. did they give you open book and indications yet?

    If you want to know what Protrader's official line is on all of this go to this link:

    They claim to have changed their business model in order to focus on providing services to "trading groups." I suppose what they mean is that they want to provide front-end and back-end services to prop shops and hedge funds.
