Thanks for making LS easier to understand. Are there anymore videos coming our way?

[PlasmaOscillations]

@shiraznasser thanks. Sorry, no more videos from me, no longer using LS.

@PlasmaOscillations May i ask what broker you're using now, and why you made the switch? I'm trying to choose between brokers for swing trading with ~10k cash. Thanks :)

[PlasmaOscillations]

@faYte0607 LS would likely not be my first choice for longer term swing trading. You can do so with it of course, but it seems much more suited for Day trading with nearly instant fills. I don't really have a first choice for swing trading since I never did that really. Currently on hiatus from trading which is why I no longer have access to the platform for video making.

Plasma, Good video. Do you feel inca has less slippge on market stops than arca? Also would you know if limit stops, market stops, and trailing stops all reside server side with lightspeed, or client side on the traders computer?

This is rather important, because I've never found out how to ping their server farm in order to do a ping or tracert, and suspect that with my internet latencey, it would be an issue in getting better fills.

Thanks for any help you can give.
