  1. Hi,

    I am just getting back into trading...I start with a reputable Prop firm on Monday.

    I traded with Tradescape/Etrade Pro in 2000 and 2001....

    I have been out of trading for a while so Im wondering what kind of style most succesful traders are using now(Scalping or position)

    And a question on order entry.

    What is the consensus on the best ECN to use???? INET, ARCA???

    Also, what kind of orders are the best to get stock...EcnBid or pay offer(MM preference(If that is still an option)

    Any comments would be appreciated greatly.

    Thanks in advance.
