DanPickUp,
I have no idea about firetip.. But was happy with Ninja.
That can be configured to take datafeed from brokers trading platform directly. like Interactive broker etc.. You can infact place orders from Ninja platform that gets routed thru yr regular broker. You can obviously feed esignal type datafeed to NT platform.
I have account with AMP Futures broker which has margin of $ 500 for 1 ES contract.
They give free datafeed to ninja platform. If you want to use automated order placemnt, preset order templates etc, then u have to purchase ninja licence otherwise, basic buy/sell ordres can be placed with free downloaded version of ninja.
Chk out their site, where u will get lot of help about configuration.
It has pretty good system testing features as well.
Happy Trading

As suggested by milind - IB is another good choice. Don't go for etrade type of brokers if you want to do active daytrading. Their commission is too high. Check out more from their sites.
They charge $400 margin for intraday trading on emini S&P500 contract (i.e. 20k Rs. approximately). We pay more then that for 1 nifty contract as margin.
But, understand that you will be in the market with more sophisticated traders and COMPUTERS with AUTOMATED TRADING SYSTEMS so it is absolutely must that u have solid backtested, profitable strategy .. 1 $ move on S&P is equal to $50 on emini contract. that means if you stop is $1 away, you are risking Rs. 2500 approx. And S&P500 is known for taking the stops out.
All the best.
