I would like to start trading my first algo. It appears the only choices are IB & Robinhood. I already set up a presently unfunded account with Robinhood and was pretty set on using them. I then started reading some of the T&Cs, such as only the first $1,000 is available immediately the rest after 4-5 business days plus the whole T+3 thing. These things make me think that they're not quite ready for prime time.
I assume that others here have faced the same decision. What did you finally decide? Why? Are you happy with the broker?
In reading the IB pricing pages, I wasn't quite sure what I'd likely be paying, so that gives me pause as well.
In my case the first algo has the potential buy and sell around 30 to 50 times per month (BTW, is the number of trade statistics available in the backtesting module?). Most of my other ideas center around less than 100 trades per month.
