    platforms in fast markets

    Hey Viper, thanks for all your input to these forum. We have been in the process of funding a UK scalper for the last few months, but the standard CX platform is not really compatible with his style of trading. For example, he needs a stop to be placed automatically behind every position he...

    Broker for Scalping!!

    james, z-forex.com is an introducing broker for MIG Investments in Switzerland. MIG offers "fixed spreads" with no commissions. We all know that "fixed" spreads are exactly that - "fixed." First of all, the last thing someone who truly wants to scalp should do is go with a broker that offers...

    Anyone using EFX Group?

    Hi Moe27, this might take a long, long time (if ever) to accomplish. There are many problems in using MT4 with Currenex or ECN's (at least from my experience). See my post today about this: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=75471&perpage=6&pagenumber=3

    Currenex Compatible Platforms?

    Moe27, Jon from EFX/MBT has been in talks with MT4 for the longest time. He tells me that they are working on this project, but who knows when (if ever) they'll have it ready. Keep in mind that MT4 was never designed for Currenex or ECN's. It was designed with the unscrupulous retail broker...

    Currenex Compatible Platforms?

    yaskevich, thanks for the info on Ninjatrader. I definitely like the lower cost structure when compared to Stategy Runner, but I didn't see any info on their website about their ability to be integrated with Currenex. Do you know if this is possible? I did see that they're compatible with...

    Broker for Scalping!!

    Guys, no MT4 broker with a regular retail (non-ECN or Currenex-type) feed will allow scalping. Part of what we do is fund traders and we have been looking for a scalping MT4 broker for the last year for our bot programs and there are none. Believe me. The thing is that I have met a lot of...

    Currenex Compatible Platforms?

    Joerg, we are on a sliding scale that starts at 22 per million per side. The $4 per million per side increases our trading cost around 20%. I agree that the software is excellent, but the trader that we are brining on board will not use 99.9% of all the bells and whistles. All he needs is the...

    Currenex Compatible Platforms?

    TradeViper, Capital Forex Pro does allow you to work with the API. They put me in contact with a few programmers today. Let's see what happens. I also spoke to Oded from Stategy Runner yesterday and they work with Currenex. The problem is that they charge you per trade and the $ we'll be...

    Currenex Compatible Platforms?

    Thanks TradeViper. I already spoke to Capital Forex Pro about the ability to use OCO orders. They will not allow this period. This is not for retail business. This is for managed account business, where we'll be trading over 100 lots a clip. They still won't do OCO orders. That's why I'm...

    Currenex Compatible Platforms?

    lucky_irish_man, thanks for the reply. I am not looking for the "other platform" for accounting purposes. I'm looking for another platform that is scalper friendly. One of the scalpers that I work with needs the functionality that I mentioned earlier. I know that Cap Forex Pro has a platform...

    Currenex Compatible Platforms?

    Is there a platform that will work with Currenex but allow me to place orders that Currenex does not accept? This is what I mean. I am working with Capital Forex Pro, a Currenex provider. The Currenex Java platform is really clunky for scalpers and, from my understanding, does not allow you...

    Inspiron E1705 and 2 Extra LCD Monitors?

    I purchased the Inspiron E1705 because one of the Dell Support people told me that it was the only Dell laptop that allowed you to connect two extra monitors two it. I explained to the rep that the E1705 had Express slots instead of PCMCIA slots, which prevcented me from using the VTBook...

    DVI Y Cables Anyone? - Appian and Matrox

    Does anyone know where to get the DVI Y Cables required to hook up multiple digital LCDs to the Appian Rushmore and the Matrox G200? I think the cables cost around $60 for two monitors on the Matrox website. I think that I read that both cards use different DVI Y Cables. That the Matrox...
