Here's what successful traders who use the X_TRADER® platform every day have to say about TT:

Chip Kenyon, Futures Trader

"X_TRADER gives me the freedom to connect directly to other exchanges. Meaning I can trade Eurex products while standing on the CBOT floor. Which is kind of surreal if you think about it."

"I use TT software and all my clerks run X_TRADER on Fujitsu wireless pen tabs, allowing me to react intuitively to market conditions."

Steve Harragan, Managing Director, GNI London

"Today's professional traders demand an edge. Otherwise they go elsewhere. TT's Autospreader® and MD Trader® interface guarantee the edge we constantly strive to provide for our traders. In essence, we've found that the serious traders have come to rely upon the functionality and speed of the TT front-end."

Chuck McElveen, Founder, Kingstree Trading

"We hire traders. Not analysts or theorists. We like to get traders with good instincts and fast reflexes-which is why MD Trader® is crucial to our business."

"We've tried other electronic trading platforms. We run them side by side against X_TRADER. But nobody's ever been faster that TT. I have yet to see a better way to sense market movement and immediately react. For traders moving in and out of the market and who need to see instant order flow, X_TRADER is the best solution."

Paul Rotter, Trader, who averages 150,000 round trips a day on Eurex

"TT's MD Trader is the fastest, most reliable scalping tool available on the market. I would not use anything else."

Jeff Quinto, Trader and Managing Member of Altea Trading

"Electronic trading provides advantages that you just won't find if you're floor trading. It truly levels the playing field. We've used other software, but X_TRADER is the best in terms of functionality and speed. Plus, TT is a profitable, viable vendor. I have confidence that the company will be around to support me and help me grow my business, and that's critical."

"Before we started using X_TRADER, our trading software often crashed in the middle of the night and I would be awakened by panic calls. The system failed a lot, and traders were very tentative—they didn't know if the software was going to work when they sat down to trade. It wasn't an ideal situation."

"Now with the X_TRADER platform, we enjoy virtually 100% uptime. That is key to my business."

"All this network does is trade, and we have not experienced any downtime. This system is top-of-the-line."

Evangelos Gialouris, Managing Director of trading associates GmbH

"With the vertical MD Trader, which allows simultaneous trading in different markets, TT is the ultimate for active traders on electronic derivatives exchanges."

Jaro Bester, Futures Trader

"I have been using TT software for several years and I'm very pleased with this platform. After testing other software systems, I came to the conclusion that no other software meets my requirements better than TT. In particular, MD Trader and TT's mouse functionality enable me to trade with speed and flexibility. My colleagues are all-around satisfied as well."

Christian Immel, Director Equity Trading of CDC IXIS Capital Markets, German Branch

"We use TT in our Arbitrage Department for its easy handling and very user-friendly trading desktop. A basket tool quotes the DAX arbitrage via TT's API interface. Access to the X_TRADER API helped us tremendously when developing in-house spreading tools."

Norbert Dülks, Managing Director of Delta Trading GmbH

"We don't experience any downtime with TT. Trading Technologies' X_TRADER is a super-fast, stable trading platform. In addition, TT delivers excellent professional support."
