I'm moving my trading from the spot markets to futures and have settled on a platform (Multicharts) though I'm still undecided on a few things and would appreciate your input.
I've narrowed down my broker choice to Mirus or Optimus Futures. Anyone here have any experience with both of these and/or any preference between the two?
Also I'm considering a feed from either Rithmic or IQ - again any feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
I opened accounts with both Mirus and Optimus using NT7 (although only funded Optimus so far). Both are good choices imho and I am very happy overall with Optimus and Rithmic.
One consideration is data feed. I personally have had much better connections with rithmic which you get via Optimus compared to zenfire. I can't comment on Mirus as a broker since have not used them. But have been very happy with Optimus. Matt at Optimus is very responsive if you ever need to talk to him.
"The day I became a winning trader was the day it became boring. Daily losses no longer bother me and daily wins no longer excited me. Took years of pain and busting a few accounts before finally got my mind right. I survived the darkness within and now just chillax and let my black box do the work."
I have been with Mirus/Rosenthal Collins for several years . I have had no issues with the brokerage.
I have had issues with Zenfire connections in the past, although it has not been an issue lately. I use Ninja Trader and never could determine where the problem originated.
I have never used Optimus, but from conversations with Matt I have found him to be knowledgeable and helpful.
I'm just a simple man trading a simple plan.
My daddy always said, "Every day above ground is a good day!"
You should be happy with Optimus. The rithmic feed has been stellar for me.
