{quote} @Rockerzeus - Ken - Maxdoom - Goldfinch Guys I'd like to ask you what would be an ideal set up for fast execution, hardware and internet connection wise. I have 100mb fiber int connection and a custom made 4 screen desktop with an i7 processor. Often times I miss the entries I'd like, it happens way too fast. What do you guys have? Any suggestions. I am checking Goldfinch's posts, I recall he was mentioning his set up in one of his posts but cant seem to find it. I'd appreciate it very much if you could respond when convenient over here...
Your connection is fine - it's the broker's end trade execution

I'll take a stab at it if you don't mind; As an engineer in computer science I can tell you that 10, 100mb or a GB "pipe" won't make any difference in trading for the average joe blow retail trader (unless you stream netflix, watch a video in 4k on YT and download the whole "The young and the restless" at the same time)

What is important is the response time you get from the servers you trade on and to your station. If any ms is so important for you, then by using a consumer grade end user connection is just plain and simple barking at the wrong tree.

If you let's say have a scalping EA that needs to get in and out blazing fasts, then the best option is to get a collocation at a reputable datacenter.

No man I have no EA it is just that I see a level I want to execute,99% of the time I miss it but yes I get it, this has nothing to do with my internet speed. Thanks mate. I guess I have to move to another broker at some point.
