Not good in the 21st century!

So I may have to look elsewhere even tho I did want to trade with an ECN.
Hey 4xStar.

I was going to sign on with EFX myself. I called them today and found out that EFX is going to disappear and it will all be just MB Trading.

I was not prepared for that. I like the things I have read about MB Trading. But this was an unexpected curveball so now I am going to have to check out other ECNs as well.

I don't really know of any others at the moment. Do you know of any with a great platform as well? Maybe even charts? Most ECNs do not provide that so I do not expect it....but it would be nice.

Please share if you don't mind what you find. My money is in a separate dedicated trading bank account, now I have to find a broker.
