Fastest fill for daytrader

[tahoemnts]

Using Ninja chart trading, who is going to give the fastest fills. I'm day trading the emini for 2-3 ticks a trade. I need fast execution and fills. Often times, the price sits right on my limit order and does not fill. I currently have a demo with Zen-Fire thru Mirus.

Realtime fills with Zen-Fire are far better than the demo fills IMO. Zen-Fire + Mirus is top notch in fills.

Thanks. Yes, I have been told fills in demo are nothing like real time. Any idea how Zen-Fire compares with Infinity?

Fills in the demo are using NinjaTrader internal simulation engine and do not actually get sent outside of your PC.

Tahoe,

I can't say as I've never used Infinity. But in the 8 mos. that I've been running Zen Fire it has never once been down for me outside of exchange outages.

General opinion is that you cant scalp paying retail commission. It may look a success at daily breakdown but in the end of month you may find yourself near 0 or below...

Another example of why "General Opinion" is often wrong.

Of course. Gentlemen know better.

Is the 2-3 tick scalp after 1 tick for ask/bid and .5 tick for round trip expenses?
