Laser Sucks!

  1. Are you trading remote? Or maybe using one of the 5 NQ servers? Cuz I'm trading NY and my system was HORRIBLE today! Don't even mention the 10am volatility it's just a given it'll have problems. Any spike in volume after that I will get stuck ARCA and stalled quotes. Refreshed the quotes at least 10 times it's getting ridiculous! Running on 5M cable with new DELL core2duo computers

  6. Today...it is not possible to trade...because the L2s will not load quickly....every time a stock is entered....the L2 will load in approximately 5 minutes....

    If you put up 3 L2s....you will have to search which one will take the price that is shown on the chart....because there are no prices in L2...

    Yesterday was perfect....today it is not possible to trade....

  7. Does your time at the top of the level 2 window match the time on your time & sales prints? My L2 time is always about 15 seconds behind.

  8. Why do you guys continue to trade there if the software sucks? (Not flaming, just wondering)

  9. The time stamp problem was on my end; the L2 uses the time from the Windows clock, and mine was a little slow.
