Ease of Operation

Rather than crowd your desktop with rarely used features, BEST Direct™ was designed for easy placement of orders. The platform includes advanced features that were designed so that they don't get in the way of quick, efficient order entry.

Risk Control

The BEST Direct™ platform was developed so that customer risk is determined before trades are executed. This is consistent with PFGBEST.com's risk management policy and reduces broker and customer risk.

Reliability

BEST Direct™ has built-in redundancy with communications links to major exchanges. The PFGBEST.com development team continuously refines BEST Direct™ so that it has the most reliable communications, trading, and back office systems possible.
