The pros are:
- one account, multiple currencies, nearly all markets / countries
- very reliable order routing, no issues regarding fills or reporting at all
- stocks, futures, options, etc. all with a single account
- great for trading options
- fees/commissions are mostly good
- interest rates
The cons are:
- Trader Workstation (TWS) has way too many errors/issues.
- most annoying error with TWS is that the layout of custom tabs is not restored correctly (everyday job to restore the layout)
- DOM trader (in TWS "BookTrader") sometimes shows outdated quotes.
- DOM trader shows MIFID-related info that cannot be hidden (costs a lot of space and distracting)
- fees for order cancellation (some markets)
- DOM trader does not show P&L for spread positions
- in fast market condition, TWS sometimes kind of hangs (slowly responding, outdated quotes) - requires restart to fix it
- even in 2 years I haven't seen any bug that I reported fixed
优点是:
- 一个帐户、多种货币、几乎所有市场/国家
- 非常可靠的订单路由,完全没有关于填充或报告的问题
- 股票、期货、期权等全部使用一个帐户
- 非常适合交易期权
- 费用/佣金大多不错
- 利率
缺点是:
- 交易者工作站(TWS)存在太多错误/问题。
- TWS最烦人的错误是自定义选项卡的布局没有正确恢复(恢复布局的日常工作)
- 多姆交易员(在TWS“BookTrader”中)有时会显示过时的报价。
- 多姆交易员显示无法隐藏的与MIDID相关的信息(需要大量空间且分散注意力)
- 订单取消费用(部分市场)
- 多姆交易员不显示&点差头寸的P L
- 在快速的市场条件下,TWS有时会挂起(响应缓慢、报价过时)-需要重新启动才能修复它
- 即使在2年内,我也没有看到任何我报告修复的错误
