DAET furnishes market quotes, gives the essence of what you need to formulate a trading decision, and constitutes a user-friendly package to work an order to rapid execution. You receive exactly the information you need to enter into the financial jungle with snakeproof boots. No Direct Access Electronic Trading system can guarantee the profitability of your trades any more than any other tool can guarantee success. Just because you buy an Ernest Hemmingway Mount Blanc pen does not mean that you can write novels about the Spanish Civil War. It's how you move the chess pieces that win the game and not the quality of the chessboard.
Your trading system should access information and key you into the appropriate trading market. You should be able to customize your screen to suit your individual trading style and technique. You should not only have access to information but also be able to weigh the information to suit your trading criteria. Your trading system must help you to make intelligent decisions and grant you immediate access to the best price in the relevant core market.
The old-fashioned way of telephoning an order to a broker has gone the way of spats. When you telephone your order to your broker, you have no way of knowing when your order hits the trading desk or how promptly your order is executed. Direct Access Electronic Trading is a computerized system that permits self-directed executions of your orders via an appropriate broker-dealer trading system.

You have the personality, capital, and desire. You want to get started. You ask yourself: "How do I find a brokerage firm that can get me started? One that can properly train me, set me up with the necessary equipment, and provide me with the services I need to succeed?" Good questions.
