    You ask this question a lot. We offer Lightspeed Trader, Sterling Trader Pro, RealTick. and CBOE Silexx. They all have a choice of equity routes to the lite exchanges/ECNs and Dark pools. You choose with each order.

  6. ECN brokers provide you with direct access to the market by linking you to the interbank liquidity providers with the help of ECN operators. ECN brokers offer varying spreads that are much lower than the spreads provided by the market makers, confirming a tighter bid. Unlike conventional brokers, ECN brokers work in your favor. They want you to always make profit so that they can charge a higher commission. That is the main reason why they levy spreads. You can find several reliable ECN brokers in the market.
