ECN brokers for automated trading

Hi,

Which ECN brokers currently offer automated trading?

For anybody that does autotrade with ECNs, which software did you use for systems development?
And how do you find the execution?

I'd also appreciate any other general feedback on this matter.

Thanks,

Nizar.

For most ecn's that I have seen you will have to develop your own software. MBtrading and Interactive Brokers both provide API's for developing software. If you have written software in C++ before the process is straightforward. I have completed development of a project for mbtrading and I am currently demo testing it now. I am working on one for Interactive Brokers and should begin demo testing it in a few weeks. I used Microsoft Visual Studio .net 2005.

The technical analysis software that many pro's use for auto trading which supports trading through many brokers or using many data feeds is Neoticker:
