Hey all, Looking to open a live trading account for futures. I was looking at Amp but I see there are quite a few other options to choose from. What do you think? |

IMO, choose a broker who offers this service: Sierra Chart / Trading Technologies Futures Order Routing Service This will narrow the selection, and get you the best data feed and order routing. I personally use Stage 5 with clearing by Dorman. |

I tried to open an account with AMP and their customer support is terrible, has been over a week without a answer and my application is still in pending for review.Emailed them 2 days ago to ask about progress and still no answer. In their FAQ it's saying you get your account verified the same day, or the latest the 2nd day after your application Will be interesting to know if someone has found a different broker to this Easy Solution to CME Funded Trading Account Requirement . |

I actually just closed mine after opening one 2 weeks ago. The worst interface I've ever seen in my life. Absolutely horrible. I just signed up with EdgeClear and I'm currently waiting for my ACH stuff to be setup. Customer service is exceptional and super responsive. |

I Actually thought TT was one of the preferred order routing methods

They were but a few weeks ago they had some ghost orders show up on clients accounts and SC is moving away from them. |

It’s a sticky near the top of first page Questions and Answers Regarding TT (Trading Technologies) and AMP |

Only AMP has abandoned TT, so order routing there is temporarily done by CQG.Other brokers that still support TT are still using TT for order routing with Sierra's Denali data feed. But because of the fiasco, Sierra is expediting the creation of their own direct order routing. |
