First, I like Tradovate and the platform. I found them to be responsive to my few issues or questions. I like the membership pricing model. I intraday trade ES, NQ, CL. Typical trade size is about 5 contracts.

My question is about fills. Sometimes, it seems like my fills are bad. I wonder if fills may be better with a different IB/FCM? I am in the U.S. I am OK with paying more if slippage is less elsewhere.

I want to be fair to Tradovate, as possibly any slippage is not their fault. Maybe it would be worse elsewhere, and this is just my perception. I chose Dorman for my FCM with Tradovate. I wonder if there is much difference between FCMs for execution and slippage.

Again, I like Tradovate, so I do not want to be a negative voice unfairly.

You can contact the Tradovate Trade Desk (be sure to select the Trade Desk option when phoning in) with order IDs and they will be happy to go through order details/timestamps and answer any questions you might have.
