Well I will be interested to see what you come up with. This stuff is changing so fast----I cannot keep up. I have been trading with IB's forex platform and I like it. The liquidity is deceptive. You take it out and it comes back. However, I have been position trading only with IB. All the...

Well yes if you are a large trader or fund. There are several Prime brokerages hooked into EBS. Just like they are hooked through Reuters direct dealer. Things are changing quickly but some of the private Prime offerings like the UBS platform and the Barclays forex platform ---have sick...

One of the challenges right now is that liquidity is all over the place. You have all these different pipelines of liquidity and everything is changing by the day. The banks (like citibank) do outrageous size. Many of the large macro funds deal with them. You can get a market on a billion...

Sorry, misunderstood you did not mention Tradestation 2000i just Tradestation. So I assumed the newest version! I had an account there for futures and used their software. I had some models designed in EL. By the way, if you want to see some kickass software. The best for the money, try out...

Well Bloomberg graphics definitely suck. NO ONE subscribes to Bloomberg for Graphics. I was referring to their deal with EBS. EBS is one of largest forex outfits. You can direct deal on Bloomberg with EBS. You have to have a prime account. With that said forex is moving fast and EBS is...

Are you using EBS trader? Out of curiousity, who do you clear through? That is the smartest thing BB---hooking up with EBS. I have not talked to any private traders using that combo ---so indulge me.

I have sat in front of Reuters and Bloomberg for many moons. I have found that Reuters 3000 to be a faster news service (on average). The new Reuters 3000 has Metastock included. It is 1k a month and IMO a better deal than Bloomberg. It really depends on your needs. Some traders have to...

I just looked at the link again. It is 1k up front than as low as 65 bucks a month. Well that still is an OK deal for reuters data. But not as good as 65 bucks a month nothing down. :) I just wonder how much it is for the forex product all in upfront??

Well metastock is very easy to work with. Or so I hear. I have things i will need converted to metastock ---so please post what you come up with. This seems like a bargain for 65 dollars!

In my experience, Reuters has the best forex data. Very good. The new Reuters 3000 (their best product) has Metastock in the package of course it is 1000 a month. This sounds like a bargain at 65 bucks. Oh and it would have to be competitive to tradestation.

I am in the same boat. I have 3 spreads in for GE and none show.

Their global econ calendar in pdf form is the best I have seen. Nice.

Ok I see the email at the bottom. I guess you got to email them!

great link---however I cannot see the pricing or how to order it?

I would think IB would have a way to dump these when we upgrade. Ib software comment please?

for non techies like me---how do I go about doing this? windows explorer?

Is anyone trading the Z5 against the Z7? Any of you guys go 2 years out in the spread?

Thank you.

Hey Def, Tell the programmers to at least give us some basic color manipulation. For instance, I would like to choose between the white or black background in the charts. The new charts are better BUT I like the white color scheme.

They already have tons of data stored. They are getting the delivery system tuned up to dish it out.
